Clayton Audio - Alive and very well

Going to direct sales and increasing the price compared to when Clayton Audio had dealer network sound pretty nuts. Should be just the opposite. Good luck to Clayton Audio. Just my humble opinion.

Purchased some M100s off ebay a few weeks ago. Love them! they are really bringing out the limitations of my Thiel CS 1.6s. Playing around with preamps right now, trying to figure out what is going to work best with them.

Dracule1 : you're right that it is unusual to charge more direct, but Wilson has always undercharged for his gear, and each and every amplifier is hand built by him. IMHO Clayton's high powered class A designs seem to be more natural and musical than other highly regarded names at much higher pricing. Put the new M300s up against the $100,000 plus Soulution mono blocks and you'll have a most difficult time deciding on a winner!

Boonetrc : the Claytons sound wonderful driven with either tubes or solid state preamps but tubes such as VAC and ARC are especially satisfying!
Enjoy your M100s!

Audiobrian-

Did you hear his lower powered offerings, the S40 and S100? If one has efficient speakers, a moderate sized room, and does not listen at high volume levels, would, say, a S40 deliver at the same performance level as your S2000??

I picked up a pair of upgraded M300's here about 18 months ago. Fed by a PS Audio PCA-2 preamp w/ Cullen high power mod (also bought here) I've found them to be the most colorful amps I've owned. Plus they keep the living room warm this time of year. :)
