Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

I still have my original 2.0n version. I don't know if I ever mentioned it, but when I reverted back to the 2.0n from the 2.1n, the biggest difference to my ears was with the wire harnesses. I much prefer the old harness vs. the new one. My latest system epiphany was finding a pair of NOS vintage Mullard Ecc82, 1958 tubes I put in the driver stage of my VAC Musicblocs. These Mullards raised the musical level of my system another huge notch. Thanks for keeping this thread alive, Luis. I hope you are well. I'm still sold on the wonderful compatibility of the Fusion Audio power cords on my amps and preamp. With these Fusion cords, there's an ease and naturalness along with excellent dynamics that is close to that "Absolute Sound" we compulsives try to achieve. I'm so content with my system right now that I'm actually listening to it less due to my recent comeback to playing my trumpet again. I bought a refurbished Bach Stradivarius that I'm having a blast on once again. Although the economy sucks right now, I'm doing my best to keep a positive outlook on life. It takes some work, though.

I wonder about the new harness you mentioned Sherod. Any more info about its design? Does the 2.1n & 2.0n at least share the same musical bloodline?

Who makes the Fusion cords? Clio09 mentioned that you are a big fan.

So glad that you are into "real" music these days. And as to the new Mullards, I am not surprised. Nice to see you are doing well. Rx8man seems to also and thats important in a good or bad economy.

Luis,
I'm not sure what the differences are between the new and old harnesses. The new harnesses are smaller gauge and more flexible than the old. Maybe Joseph or Victor can further explain. Joseph might want to keep the two versions proprietary. As far as the sound of the 2.0 vs. the 2.1, in my system they were very different. In my system and in my humble opinion, I preferred the original 2.0, although now that I feel that the old harness had a better sound to my ears, I might some day put back in the new version caps to give them another listen. My system sounds so good now that I'm afraid of changing anything for fear of moving backwards. I've done that on occasion when experimenting with tweaks and sometimes after trying a combination of various tweaks and going backwards with the sound, I'll forget just what I changed and trying to get back what my ears originally liked would be painstaking. I've learned the hard way to do one tweak at a time, document that tweak, and listen carefully before trying the next tweak. I'm tired and not thinking clearly tonight, so I hope I didn't make things seem too confusing. (O:

La45 i use Dimension balanced, rca ics, bi speaker wiring and can say they help create my systems believable 3d airy presentation. Thats because they seem to have no impact of there own just pass sound clearly. Well made and highly transparent.
BTW are you located in any area near La45.

Sherod-

Thanks for the info. I probably will keep things the same then and perhaps try the Fusion cords. I have gone Server digital (PC Audio)these days with the Transporter and I am still working on maximizing its potential.

Stl you seem to like the Dimensions. Did you compare them? I am on the east coast and my set up is Single ended with Grover's/Joseph's Mix of speaker cable and Harmony IC with an eye on the Silkworm cables to try.
