Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

Siltrain,

In my 11/15/09 post I reported that Positive Feedback had announced an award for the new TP 2.2. You will find the link to the article in my post. I think the writer who praised the 2.2 still intends to publish a review. I check the site each month in hope of finding it.

My former power cords were not the Dimension poswer cords, so I cannot say how the new power cords would compare to the Dimensions.

I don't follow Postive Feedback much, but is it normal for them to give a product like a preamp an award without a review? It's been three months since that announcement, yet no more discussion about it from PF. Also, is the reason Joseph hasn't announced the introduction of the TP 2.2 on his website because it is still in the fine-tuning stages? I have begun to become a little disillusioned lately with the two gentlemen at AH. Victor has from time to time made posts on this thread of future announcements of things and they never came. If you, like me, have followed this thread, you know what I'm referring to. )o:

Sherod,

I see in Victor's 1/26/10 post an answer to part of your concern. There he said he was working on ad copy for several new products and expected the information to be released in 3-6 weeks. It seems likely we will learn the full story around the end of February.

The award to which I referred was recognition from a Positive Feedback writer who was in the process of developing a review of the TP 2.2. Although I've never published a review in a magazine, I've read enough of them to come to understand that the timing of publication can be impacted by many different forces - some in the writer's control; some beyond that control.
The good news is that we are not suffering from a lack of good music. What I feel is only an impatience for even better music.

For me now with my upgraded amps and using 2.1 i am most definitely not suffering from lack of music in fact i am in total musical joy with my system. I know from posts above on the power supply upgrade and clarity caps which with shrods help i added to my 2.1 i could not be any happier with Audio Horizons and looking forward to hearing what 2.2 is and will bring. Sometime change is good and then it can be a step backward so i will be checking on the progress of 2.2.

I was just looking at a photo of the insides of a TP 2.1 preamp in a current AH ad. The link is to a photo. I'm curious of what changes have been made lately. Based on the photo, it looks like the power supply board has been changed back to the TP 2.0 version. Also, the caps look like something new, not the wax-type with copper foil wrap that were previously in there.
