Sounds like a perfect plan DGAD. When you get the new 7.5 Mk.2 and you break it in, please let us all know about the differences you perceive compared to the original model. Guido
Guido, I'm curious if you've tried your friend, Pscialli's 6.5 Mk II in your system. That would be an interesting evening of listening after knowing what your Ref 3 sounds like.
Sherod, unfortunately a direct a/b session may be difficult. I live in Austin (Tx) and Pscialli's system is in Fairfax (Va). Taking my REF 3 along during one of my periodic visits is not feasible.
