Life after DarTZeel


I would like to hear from ppl who have had and SOLD DarTZeel amp.

I'm asking ppl who have already sold this amp, since very often, when we still have the stuff, we either do not want to admit its shortcomings, or just don't hear them. It is only after buying sth new, we discover what part of the performance could have been improved upon.

So what was your next amp ?
What qualities your next amp exhibits that DarT lacks ?

I would really love it if jessica dug the dartzeel (when she came over) but probably more of an iPod person. This is nature's way of evening out things
Did anyone of you tried the Zeel 50-Ohm cables between the pre and pwr amp ?

I'm wondering how much (if any) I'm missing using those cables vs top quality interconnects.
I know this is an old thread but I am sure people are still around and would love to talk about their favourite darTZeel. I have never heard a darT but I can imagine and understand when people say it is "musically neutral" without any signature etc. My question, there are similar amps in tube camp which are known to be extremely neutral and can drive most speakers like the CAT JL2 and now the JL1 signature. Have any of you heard the CAT ? Since you guys are fortunate to hear true neutrality in your darT I am sure you can articulate the neutrality factor of other amps well. So, how do you compare it to good CAT :-) ?
Pani, I am fortunate enough to have heard both the Dart and the CAT JL2 and JL3's. The Dart is a great ss amp, the CAT's are great tube amps...not really the same presentation. Personally, I prefer the CAT sound....the Dart is slightly-slightly more mechanical sounding. The CAT amps gave me the impression of more power on reserve than the Dart. I heard both of these amps on two different speakers....1) a pair of Magico Mini 2's and 2) a pair of ML Summits.
Front ends were the respective CAT and Dart preamps with a TW analog rig as source.
If one had to choose between the two, it would be a pretty difficult choice, as both are VERY good....my slight preference is to the CAT.
