Soulution vs Boulder vs TAD electronics vs MBL whi


Owning now the Soulutions 700 monos/pre, speakers are the MBL 101 MKII I goes to the Munich 2013 show, and I was hearing many systems, and in my humble opinion, Soulution was a little lean, TAD a little dark and Boulder a little too sweet but at the end better, I recognize that the best system for me was the living voice with Audio note Kondo, but kondo can´t work with my speakers, the second best one was the TAD system and the MBL, I was very disappointed with Constellation with TAD reference one speakers, surprised by how good sounds CH precision electronics with VIVID speakers and with Stenheim speakers(Alumine 2 way) in two different rooms, also Absolare with Altair speakers had very good sound, and in one of my 3 vists to the Magico S5 with Spectral room they also was good, not so in the others 2 visits.

I will be very pleased to know your opinions and advice, based on what did you heard about these electronics(MBL, TAD Boulder perhaps the new series 2100, CH precision, Balabo, never heard.., and sorry and yes the soulutions are for sale and accept yours offers, are 220 located in Europe.

You are pretty restricted with amplifiers with your MBL 101 MKIII, With a efficiency of around 80 dB. You need a amplifier that can deliver much current instead of voltage.
I don't know if you have read but some time back now I installed StillPoint Ultra 5's under my speakers and found it to be a positive sonic wise so I would recommend such, not cheap but well worth it. You can read allot of what others have are experiencing doing such with numerous different speakers along with installing under other electronics including turntables.
So Dev is the leader when it comes to amps on this speaker having walked the walk.

Hey Dev get ahold of Brian @ Aaudio and demo his Thales IC and hear what all the commotion is about over this wire.

I would try to find a pair of the Audionet MAX they should be able to drive the MBL's perfectly, they have amazing specs, with massive power delivery into 1 ohm loads, with a tremendous damping factor, these two attributes should lead to a successful marriage with the MBL.

When you factor in their reasonable price and superb build quality I don't see why you wouldn't want to check them out
I will check Audionet, and also try to demo the news Boulder series 2000, and I forget tubes , it seems if that the CAT can´t drive well the MBL, will be difficult that nother tube amps can to do it
