Swiss amps

Unsurpassed for lifelike reproduction of yodelling. Focus (the band) fans, take note.

I have heard the Dartzeel monoblocks at a show for a prolonged audition, with magico Q5 speakers and yes they sounded phenomenal. I am not sure with my priorities, I would need anything more than the integrated.

Having heard a Nagra and Dartzeel based system and would happily settle for either indefinitely, but yes prices are insane, even second hand. The penalties I suppose, of the Swiss Franc becoming a reserve currency.

I bought my 9ct gold omega watch when I was 17. Used every day since, soaked 3 times, once in a washing machine! It still keeps pretty good time and I'm 63. Is this a record, I suspect not?

Klinerm,

sorry for the late response, i just saw the question.

the darTZeel 458 monoblocks are the best amp i've yet heard. and that was for 30 days in my room.

what i love about the dart amps, and this goes for both the stereo 108 i live with daily and the 458's i enjoyed for a month a year ago, is how they sound like music. tube lovers forget they are solid state when they listen to my system. they don't have an electronic characteristic. they are sweet on top, and transparent in the mids with the delicacy of finer tube amps, yet a low noise floor a tube amp can only dream about. and so fast and microdynamic. like music.

the 458's add this unlimited dyamnic grip and foundation to the many wonderful aspects of the stereo 108. it does not hurt that the 458's are maybe the most beautifully finished amplifier i've ever seen. a true work of industrial art.
