Yes 20t's series 2. I have PS Audio Perfect Wav Combo and a few other tweeks. The sound i am getting now is in another world!! I couldn't be happier! Everyone i have had over my house has left speechless:) I do have a very nice (large dedicated ) room that they are in.
Reporting in. My number came up for the upgrade. I have silver units and wanted to change to black and was willing to pay the price of new covers. I also did not want to be without the amps because due to a broken leg, I am home bound and listening many hours each day to my system. Nuforce is immediately sending me already upgraded black units at the basic upgrade price. And I don't have to send mine in until the new ones arrive. What nice people at Nuforce to do this. Excited to hear the V3's by the end of the week.
Before the V3 upgrade I was thinking, maybe it's time to audition a different amp. Right, like I'm going to get off my butt and look for another amplifier especially after being so satisfied with the NuForce V1. What's the point?
Milpitas is about twenty miles away so I hand delivered them. The Nuforce facility is a very unpretentious light manufacturing building located just off Hwy 880. The folks there are very sweet and gave me a completion time about a week out. Two days later the work was done.
My first impression was that they sounded worse then the V1. I then noticed that the batteries in my preamp weren't holding a charge and running the system off the charger was only slightly better. After some new cells and a checkup by the designer I left the system on and took a ten day trip.
Walking through the front door both my wife and I noticed a substantial improvement. This was a V1 to V3 upgrade and for once my procrastinating nature becomes an asset.
Vicdamone Congratulations on the plunge. I too had my eye on another amp, the Pass XA100.5, but the difference in weight, heat and price (16K) and my level of satisfaction with the V2SE just made trying the V3 a no-brainer. Did you just have the amps on for the ten days or did you have music playing through them over that time?
