Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which?

Atmasphere

That is a pity your distributor is no longer around - unfortunately not surprising. Good luck with finding a new importer. Melb, Sydney or brisbane would be better for all audiophiles.

You guys in the US and Europe don't know how lucky you have it :-)

yes, so for what i have heard the ART is the best and most musical.

cheers

Dear Atmasphere
Do you support home demos for your audio equipment?
I'd love to listen your top preamp!

Hi George, we do have a demo program. Give us a call for details 651-690-2246

How many of you have gone to some of the great concert halls around the USA or the world for that matter! 5th row Boston is full, warm, huge, detailed, airy, extended and crazy dynamic with mind blowing dimensionality...the ref 3 re-creates that effect with commensurate components. Also, how far apart do most of you have your speakers ? These things say alot about how and what you listen for !!

Dave_b, just curious to hear if you find that sound stage (as presented through much hifi) is not what you experience when presented through these live venues? And do you think that it is interesting to note the differences between home audio norms and the sources that should - in theory - underpin them?
