Bump (KI special edition)

All models considered. Please PM. Thanks.

I’ve had both in the same small room and they’re fine.

I’ll see if I can make it for one of the days.

Bump.

I always think it’s funny people talking about the sound of different software, when they’re assessing it via an electro-mechanical device with many order of magnitude more distortion in many different forms. Like trying to taste wine from a beaker smeared with peanut butter.

None of that makes your previous statement true though.

Many layers of delusion must’ve been required to make that statement with a straight face.

Bump.

@tmhaudio They look like SomethingSolid XF stands.

I’ve been using vintage Quad for a while now (33, 34, 303) and have no complaints via my Falcon LS3/5a speakers, which are reissues of the 70s design. In fact, I’ve found the 33/303 to be one of the most enjoyable amplifiers I’ve ever owned. Have to thank @Ian for getting me into this old kit which I had assumed was not up to scratch anymore! How wrong I was.

Looking for either an Accession or Reflex for my MM cartridge. Thanks.

Just borrowed a Glasshouse passive to try out. Let’s see how it goes…

Isn’t that an active pre though?

Yep, that Impulse! album with Johnny Hartman did startle me last year when I heard it for the first time (why did I put it off for so long?!). I bought a really nice Japanese vinyl copy and via my system at the time (1200G/AT MM, old Quads, Harbeth M30.1 quite near-field) it felt like he was right there. Just had a thought, maybe Sinatra - A Very Good Year might get a spin here too.
