Dynaydio Temptation owners - what's you setup?

I didn’t have the Temptations, but did have the C2s in my systems for about three years with the Mark Levinson 432 Amp and BAT 51se Pre amp with a VPI Super Scout Master / Titan cartridge and BAT VK-P10se phone amp. It did make great music. This combo made the C2s ready dance. I would love to heard your system Deshapiro it sounds like a winner.

Spectral DMA 360 monoblocks; Spectral DMC 30 SL preamp; Linn CD-12; Magnum Dynalab MD 102 tuner; PS Audio P500; All cable is current MIT reference and the room has dedicated 20 amp shielded power. With this set up I have listened to many high end speakers and IMHO the Temptations are the best I have heard and mine are piano black which makes the visually georgous as well.

Thanks guys.

I will have to admit I am more in the "speaker importance" school of thoughts. But for C2 or Temptation, upgrade electoincss seems inevitable. Choosing Amp and Pre-amp is the most difficult thing for me as there are so much more choices and the performance difference is not as easy to spot as in speakers, relatively speaking.

I've seen lots of recommendations here on Audiogon for Dynaudio like, Plinius, Sim Audio, etc. Without any audition on any of them, the following are good choices ?

Mark Levinson,
Plinius,
Sim,
Belles,
Pass Lab

Opinions?

Get a SS amp with lots of balls. Dynaudios love power. Of your list, I would go for Plinius first. I haven't heard the new Pass', but I did have a pair of 600's which I found to be harmonically thin.
