@wig Just looked through Audio Circle (thanks for the reminder!) and couldn't find a lot direct comparison comments. Maybe that thread got disappeared. There was plenty of praise for both - definitely a big fan base for Don Sachs and some a Berning fan or two. And Daedalus - man they are beautiful speakers. I'll no doubt do a deeper dive later today.
I emailed with Don a bit - the only reservation I have is the UL config. I've liked Triode better, especially with the VPI. He maintains that UL in a superior product will be....welll,,,,superior! He's changed business models to customers getting in a queue for each piece of gear as he builds them in a less harried more self directed pace. Sounds like a good philosophy! Actually less pressure in both directions. I got in the queue and am very close to fully committed, but able to take some time to look around still.
Raven and Decware still hold some interest for me - I'm still casting about for direct comparisons and experience matching with Devores - Gibbon series in particular...
