So finally after a lot of trial and error selling and trading I achieved sonic nirvana for me. sold my Parasound a21 amp and p5 pre amp and went with Musical Design t100 amp and the sp1 pre amp. bought two REL t9 subs a Shunyata ps8 line cond Shunyata power cables. Mosaic interconnects and FMS zero speaker cables. the final piece I went with was Intuitive Designs Gamma Summits speakers. these speakers are unreal! soo seamless and pure. I don't even really know how to explain their sound, seamless, organic with a stage that is wide, deep, tall and three dimensional. the sound seems to float. it was explained to me that with the use of carbon fiber nano tube arrays which makes them almost super conductive at room temp and no phase shift is the reason for this. you don't hear individual drivers they just blend, my jaw hits the floor every time I listen. if anyone gets the chance listen to some of the speakers, amps, cables and pre amps that Dale Pitcher designs. then you'll hear what I mean.
