List : Components with high dynamics

I have to admit that I like high dynamics among other things when it comes to my components. For all of you who like me like to try new components every so often and have come across a highly touted component that is rather sluggish and dissapointing, could you name some of the highly dynamic component out there you know of.

I'll start with the following:

Symphonic Line
Krell
BAT
Eastern Electric Minimax
PrimaLuna Dialogue II
128x128audiogabby

"So, my gut says that dynamcis are more of a function of the speaker efficiency than anything else"

You will not get good overall dynamics out of a speaker that is not capable of it no matter what, that's for sure!

The VAC 140's fit the bill....real immediacy and dynamics.

"The VAC 140's fit the bill....real immediacy and dynamics."

One would hope so for that kind of money.

I am a big VAC fan and think their pieces are simply gorgeous and also great sounding to my ears.

But seriously, shouldn't any piece of equipment in this price range have great dynamics?

Sorry to rant. I'm actually probably quite jealous that I probably cannot afford or at least justify the cost of the really good VAC stuff at this point in my life.

Mapman....if you keep yours eyes open there are extreme deals on the larger VAC Ren series....I don't think people want to spend the money to retube these amps....but take it from me their foolish not too....but somebody else's good fortune.
