Ok, made my decision.
Hang on to the Defy. Now I have to dump on ebay a tube pre and a cayin MT35 brand new.
Both at a nice loss.
Here are some tweeks i plan to do over the course of the next 3 months.
Add PSVANE and Shugaung pre tubes on the Defy,,
Change the interconnect post on the cayin cd 17 from the cheap brass which every amp/cd player in the entire universe puts on the units, Even jadis' 500 4 block monos have 2 cent brass interconnects,,that amp, 4 chassis, each weighing 100+++ lbs, have 2 cent brass cable posts/speaker posts...Its true, its a fact. Well I am buying PURE 100% real, COPPE. and get this,,,every amp/cd player in the universe puts cheap 2 cent wires from the board to the speaker/cable connect posts, wires as athin asa human hair, pure aluminum,,,,well I just bought 99999% pure silver wire and will have my tech take out cayin's 1 cent wire which connects the pc board to the out posts.
, I ordered new DISCRETE opamps froma guy in Colorado,,,really nice, will swap out the 18 yr old opamps in the Cayin for those.
I am taking out the cheap 2 cent caps cayin used in the 17 cd player with Mundorf Silver Gold Oil/white body caps,,the Black body, Gold silver are wayyyy out my budget, I ordered 8 ..22uF, 4 .1 uF and 2 .33uF. ~~~Niceeeee~~~. what else,,,oh ordered a bunch of dif 6922's. 4 russian 6NP5~~~NICE~~~~ taking out the amperex Bugle Boys.
6Np5 is a superior design. vs all other 6922/6dj8.
what else,,,oh yeah,,,have 14ga sterling silver (85% pure silver) wire for the top portion of the Seas Thor speaker wires,,IOW, The Jadis has dual connects, Run silver from 1 set to the Thor's top posts , feeds a W18/Millenium tweet, the bottom post has the W16 as low fq/s = will use copper,,,silver not needed,,,but i think , yes I did order another 20 ft of 14 ga, so change of plans,,,will run sterling silver (85% pure silver) to both posts. will buya thin clear rubber tube to house the 14 ga wire,,,no spades a direct hook up from source to speaker post,.,.speaker posts will have pure copper as per Madisounds rebuilding my Thor xovers,,with all new compoenents,,,going Silver Oil Supreme and also each xover will have 1 10uf Gold Silver Supreme oil, BLACK CAP!!!, each weights about 1/2 lb, and are like small coke cans. The xover will not fit in the Thors,,will bea separate box outside the speaker. ..what else,,,I've got other tweaks, on the table,,,but these are the main,,when i get the new Cayin SC6,,i plan to make all the new tweaks. new silver wires on interconnet posts, pure copper posts,,all new Mundorf Silver Oil Supreme caps, other upgrades.
Jadis Defy will have all new caps, Mundorf Silver Oil Supreme. Wioll take out the 2 cent speaker/cable connects from the board to the posts and also take the 2 cent brass posts jadis installs on all the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ amps.. get rid of those 2 cent post s and use pure copper posts/pure silver wire.
Ordered nice wide flat pure silver interconnects from china,,at $35 each pair.,.... ~~well thats the majority of the tweaks. others will follow.
,,So I am trashing my dream ofa Muzishare 845/300B amp/FR japenese speaker system. and placing that cash in upgrades to all other components.I think this is my best bet for a true world class A system,,I see Jadis has the Defy as A/B,,,when i get all the silver upgrades, it will be a ture pure Class A amplifier at 100+ pure class A watts.
The EH KT90's will have all the pure clean juice they need to sing.
From solo piano, to full complex orchestra,
The Defy will blow away any amp in its class.
The Thors will be the finest true Class A speaker in the world, nothing will even come close, Not even scan speaks' top Neo designs will come even close to The SEAS with upgrades.
My Cayin cd 17, ner a cd player will touch it.
~~Class AAA~~ I just invented a new tag.
Class D is like most sytems i've heard past 40 yrs,,Class C, quite common,,,class C, lots out there,,,Class B,, = a good tube amp + Seas speakers + any old tube cd player,,Class A, Jadis+ SEAS,, Class AAA only comes with Jadis/SEAS/Cayin all with Mundorf Silver Supreme Oil/Silver wires running all over/copper posts/best sound ing tubes.
= class AAA>
I've been on this journey for a class AAA system,,and finally these past few months,,especailly these past few days,,I figured out how to acheive this dream.
To get to class AAA, you must have a class A or A/B ssytem,,, these upgrades wioll not takea class B system to class AAA> neither to class A. Class B will always be Class B..only a class A system can be tweaked to Class AA or class AAA>
