MBL 1531 to 1621a What to expect?

Hi Paul,

From the AGon Homepage, click on Forums. Then when you are at forums, towards the top of the screen, click on 'Learn'...from there it will take you to a set of options including Membership Directory...look Teajay up and PM him. Generally, the message goes to the persons email account from AGon. Good luck and hope this works.

;-), Thanks Lloyd, much appreciated, pm sent..

I think that like you with your Zanden, it makes sense to try the house sound that you like so much before considering others, and MBL do seem to keep a consistent sound throughout their range, just better at the top end..

The combination of the CF DAC and the reference MBL 1621a is still the most musical combo I have heard so far. The 1621a does make a big sonic difference compared with its smaller brother. Also, I have gone to a Sablon digital cable replacing the Stealth Sextet which lead to even a more natural/musical presentation in my system.

Great stuff, Teajay. By the way, if your Sablon digital cable is from Sablon Audio, I know Mark Coles quite well, and have a lot of respect for him. A seriously passionate audiophile who is a very creative designer...I have a few of his power cables and one of his Panatella ICs. Great stuff and seriously high end imho for a lot less money.

Big news for Sablon to surpass Stealth Sextet!

Thank you chaps, most helpful, I will most likely go ahead and try one in my system, the combination of the new DAC and this should be rather nice indeed..!

KR,
