Spectral audio today

thieliste , get in touch with me, and we can talk spectral, playing it now great stuff, if you have the time come over to see and listen to my system esoteric k01x cd and wilson sashes mit cables, i am not on this site every day amd.2112@hotmail.co.uk 

Spectral is a system approach which will always make it niche. Has always sounded dead to me, similar to Soulution, Boulder, and some others mentioned. Dartzeel is my personal high end favorite as it nails decay and flow but with an incredible natural yet extended top end. I would also hear latest Nagra.

Keith,
In regard to the sonic character of the brands you described,  I've have consistently found them  to sound dry, sterile,  clinical and lifeless. Your summation (Dead)  is impressively  succinct,

Happy Listening!

Wonderful to hear of your opportunity to buy some Spectral.
I've been an owner since the mid 90's and have zero complaints.
I feel those who dis Spectral or claim others are significantly better have an agenda.
Top flight reviews confirm Spectral quality exquisite sound and I would rely more on them than hearsay on this site.
I've auditioned and appreciated many other fine products but have not felt the need to change. I also use MIT Oracle PC's and high level interconnects and speaker cables. 
I'm sure your own listening will lead to a happy purchase :)
Cheers. Pete
