Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ?


Hi all,

I just purchased a "base" Aesthetix Romulus and am very happy with it. Has anyone had their unit upgraded to Signature or heard the base unit and Signature unit side by side? I am wondering what the sonic differences were and if you think it is a worthwhile upgrade. The vast majority of my units use is spinning cd's on a high resolution system. I would be particularly interested in the difference in dynamics and bass extension with the upgrade.

Thanks for looking!!

Bill,
That's one of the occasional  odd phenomenonsince of this site.
People ask  a question or seek advice.  When  they get informed responses,  the OP has seemingly disappeared.
It's only been two days, let's not jump to the conclusion that the OP has abandoned his thread. Some folks actually have lives, and don't check in on Audiogon several times a day.
That's what I've been told anyway. ;^)
Hello John,
That's true and I wasn't specifically referring to this thread. However  there  have been threads started by people  that generate  considerable  activity and information  and the original  poster doesn't  respond. I was just  making a  general  observation based on  previous site behavior. 
Charles, 
Hi all! I just got back from a long week, what a great surprise to see all you folks chiming in! I might have wondered if I vanished...
I haven't taken the plunge into streaming although I know this has that capability so that is for the future and I am sure you all will help me get educated!
i am using a symposium svelte and their precision couplers under the unit and one of the 14" wide HRS damping plates behind the faceplate side to side. I have got to try one of the apprentice shelves but I also hear the HRS feet they include in the sig upgrade work really well too!
more after dinner, thanks everyone!!
