Odyssey monoblock thoughts.


Own an old pair, sound crystal and amazing, low watt ones. But sound so nice.

 Anyone own the newer ones!” Kismet, or a new 2018 pair, and your thoughts on their sound.

break in time, and the sound after break in?
leave the on all the time? Or off during the week, and on for weekthe nds?

need help with these amps.

thanks

I bought a Odyssey Stratos Exreem, along with a matching Candela preamp, and all of Odyssey best Cables (IC’s and Speaker)..
I believe Odyssey amps to be a nice entry level Hi-end component..
I bought a Decware preamp/headphone amp (CSP3) , and tried it in place of the Candela preamp.. It sounded so good that the Candela went up for sale, to help fund a Decware Amp... Eventually I replaced the Stratos with a Decware (ZMA)..
Even though the Decware amp’s sound stage is “better” , it is not as strong and will only work with high sensitivity speakers..
The Odyssey amp will play louder, stronger, and it sounds great with my Decware Tube preamp in front of it..


Odyssey kismet monos paid for, just waiting to find time to meet halfway to pick them up.  took me a lot of time saving for these!

 Klaus was so helpful with all my questions, (a lot of them)

 he says he upgraded them, and they are superb! 
I trust his assessment, and am looking forward to them!
