Soulution vs Boulder vs TAD electronics vs MBL whi


Owning now the Soulutions 700 monos/pre, speakers are the MBL 101 MKII I goes to the Munich 2013 show, and I was hearing many systems, and in my humble opinion, Soulution was a little lean, TAD a little dark and Boulder a little too sweet but at the end better, I recognize that the best system for me was the living voice with Audio note Kondo, but kondo can´t work with my speakers, the second best one was the TAD system and the MBL, I was very disappointed with Constellation with TAD reference one speakers, surprised by how good sounds CH precision electronics with VIVID speakers and with Stenheim speakers(Alumine 2 way) in two different rooms, also Absolare with Altair speakers had very good sound, and in one of my 3 vists to the Magico S5 with Spectral room they also was good, not so in the others 2 visits.

I will be very pleased to know your opinions and advice, based on what did you heard about these electronics(MBL, TAD Boulder perhaps the new series 2100, CH precision, Balabo, never heard.., and sorry and yes the soulutions are for sale and accept yours offers, are 220 located in Europe.

Lol, never underestimate the preparedness of A'goner's to resurect old, dormant threads! 🤣

Hi Dionakra,

Did they break in or you broke them? :-)

FWIW, I own the Soul'700 amps, along with Spectral DMA-400RS. Both are very good & top flight. Gryphon Mephisto, however is the tops in micro-dynamics & resolution.

Regards & Enjoy the system.

Emigene...did you ever buy the app/amps you were looking for.?..Do you live in the USA and if so..do you live near Virginia...?..If so, i think you would love to come and hear my SET amps.Only 2 pair in existence.they are very expensive. If you looked at AudioNote Japan amps and liked them but were interested possibly in something better then you should come by and listen..I  would not trade mine for any other amps and neither would the other owner who has heard / tried most of the amps mentioned .
Look at Audia Flight Stremento #1 preamp and Stremento #8 amps better than all the above at a much better price point.
