Best Amp for Timbre, Depth and Spatial Resolution?

I played for over 8 years with the best B&W speakers. I had a lot of fun with them in those years. But because I can test and hear so many different things you understand what is missing. I talk a lot about 3d sound. The main reason is that this is the most convincing part in highend audio. Wenn I would have gone further with the 800D I would have to accept the less deep and wide stage. Wenn you are aware of what it does with your music wenn it is played in 3D. It is difficult to go back. B&W still makes nice speakers, but I have grown in the search to the absolute sound. Here depth and wide is a pre. One thing about Pass Labs. Nothing is perfect, the same about Pass labs. It gives a deep and wide stage, but the indivividual focus within this big square is not that sharp. And instruments and voices are too big in proportion. I am very critical in everything I Judge. This is also about the things I own. I played for over 12 years with the Valhalla loudspeakercable. But I was aware that it was incomplete. So you look for cables and sources to solve this. Wenn you are a perfectionist like I am you only want the best. This level I want to achieve for my clients as well. Another example; Naim is a very popular brand. There amps do not give a deep and wide stage. But there are many people who like the sound and drive it gives. It is only my opinion that a 3-dimensional stage is more exiting to listen at. That does not mean that other people are not allowed to focus on a 2-dimensional sound with a nice sound and drive. I like many Audioquest cables and I sell it a lot. But there powercables I find not good enough. I am Always looking for the best things for the money. My focus is on quality. I can easily switch to another brand if this is better. For me it is that simple!

Bo,

Best 3-D imaging setup I have heard by a huge margin was all mbl system in a well set up dealer showroom.

Source was a SOTA modern reference Reel to reel tape.

Phono and CD on same system did not fare as well, though still better than most anything else I have heard in terms of 3-D.

RTR was full bodied like live performers occupying specific locations you could point to in the large showroom area behind speakers.

Phono and CD was similar but thinner less convincing sound in comparison to RTR in both cases.

Totally holographic/3-D

Exact same dealer's gear sounded average at a show.

Showroom optimized for those were key, ie very deep and uniquely shaped and well treated tapered space/area behind speakers.

I have heard many other very good 3-D setups at home and at shows, but that was the best by far. Others are similarly good at best but room size and design and more directional speaker designs are usually the constraint that still keeps the best of the pack together. mbl omni design + large optimized room seemed to be the keys. Few would have a room like that at home unless specifically designed.

Hi guys, of course people are free to post their opinions on this forum, and of course Bo is not the only one repeating himself. I've merely asked (albeit without a question mark) how can one alert a moderator. Moderators exist for a reason, plus, I am sure they will not censor one's posts (e.g. Bo's posts) only because another one (e.g. me) will ask them to do so.

The reason I have asked that question is because I felt that Bo has monopolized also this thread without offering any real advice. I invite, whoever thinks I am imagining things or that I have an agenda, to quickly check Bo's posts in the thread below:

Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p?

Unfortunately, as other have mentioned, the thread above is not the only thread poisoned by him (with the same story). While I do not want him band, it would be really nice to have an ignore button.

NVP; just speak for yourself. And wenn you have problems with it. You also could have send me a private massage. If I do not like a persons comments or I don't agree I would have said it to him personally. The way you do it now is quite weak.
