PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo

I spoke with a Stockholm Ypsilon dealer and he told me the Aelius sound extremely transparent.
I just hope there is a bit of warmth too for the Thiels.
My distributor will be dropping the Aelius ll and plug them to my system in the morning and we will do the auditions in the afternoon.

Great summation Mitch though I must add that Fremer’s review of the BHK’s was done via unbalanced inputs. Honestly I don’t think the review was worth doing under those conditions. Like road testing a Lamborghini on low test gas or winter tires. Sure it gives you some sense but hides the real performance potential. The manufactures response said the same thing, that the balanced input sounds considerably better, and fixes and bass deficiencies Fremer (who I happen to really like) heard in his unbalanced system. Also the mosfets are N Chanel which is different than typically used and offers lower distortion and other advantages over traditional designs.

Tom did you trade in your CS 7.2s for the YG Annats ?
What amp would you recomment to a CS 3.7 - CS 7.2 owner ?
Audionet Max very good ?
Thanks,

Brice

I completely agree that tubes should be in any system in which 3.7s are the loudspeaker.  I got great results with a tube preamp mated to a high current solid state amp.  With good source material such a setup performs at a level with systems costing more IMHO. With poor source material though 3.7s are an unforgiving mistress.
