Heres the follow-up to my posts:
I received my Plinius SB-300 today. After setting it up and cleaning all contact areas with Kontak and then spraying with ProGold G5, I powered up the amp.
I was cautioned to give the BS-300 a good 30 days to reach its full potential (as was already my rule of thumb) Ill leave the SB-300 on 24/7.
I think the Plinius SA-100 is a damn good amp whether running it in AB or A mode however for this comparison the SA-100 was warmed up and operating in A mode. The SB-300 was set up out of the box and I heard the following from the SB-300 as its been playing now for 2.5 hours and sounding improved the longer it plays.
The following are the immediate improvements:
1) More bass slam with a greater bass range.
2) More resolution overall.
3) Greater attack and improved details and imaging.
Associated equipment:
McIntosh MR 80 digital FM Tuner, Dodson DA-217 MK II D Dac, Sonic Euphoria passive preamp,
Wadia 20 Transport, Legacy Signature III speakers, Harmonix HS-101 GP interconnects, Harmonix HS-101 SLC speaker cables, Ridge Street Audio MSE Gen. II Digital Link Interconnect, Porter Port cryod Hubbell 8300 AC outlets, Electraglide Ultra Khan and Mini Kahn Plus power cords. My own power filtration system with two dedicated lines (pictures of power filtration system available on my system on Audiogon).
Best regards
