Audio GD XA150 Monoblocks

Frank great choice. Please let us know when you get them.

ordered the 2H's yesterday. For $75.00 extra I ordered them with extra set of speaker binding posts so I can bi-wire. That will take some extra time as well as the 100 hour factory burn in. Probably 3-4 weeks before I have them in my system. I'm in southern Calif. 

Frank amazing man! The extra posts is a brilliant idea. Which speakers, pre and dac?
You have a great reference point coming from the Lamm 1.2 Reference. What made you sell those?

Hi Tobias. As I mentioned in an e-mail to you I'm just getting back into serious audio after a 10 year absence. Had to sell my Lamms during last recession. Was using a pair of custom Mono's by Alex Paychev (APL hifi) until I had a problem with one. Had a pair of Electrocompaniet laying around so started using them. A good step down from the Lamms so I haven't been listening much. 
You probably aren't familiar with my speakers or source. 
Speakers are Talon Firebirds with the Accuton diamond tweeter & ceramic mid. Focal woofer. Talon is now out of business.
APL NWO cd player. This is a hand built player using an esoteric case VRDS-Neo assembly. Everything else inside is APL including 20 AKM dac's per side and a tubed output. 1- ECC99 tube per side. Built in digital volume control.
When I get the 2H's I will first be running them direct from my cd/sacd player. Once I get a handle on that combo I'm thinking of trying the HE-1 preamp. After that I will be looking into DAC's or maybe the DAC first. Alex Peychev is a friend of mine and his newest DAC's look very good but at a higher cost than the Audio-GD.  
 

Awesome! That speaker sounds like its awesome. I think an all AGD system will be amazing, esp HE1. I feel he9 review is amazing preamp and he1 is likely better. Even the master 1 which is a step down from HE1 was in the same league as the far more costly CH precision.
Kingwa's R7HE Dac is really well regarded as being excellent so its worth considering. And also think about the AGD Di20HE digital interface that thing is amazing.
