Not Another NuForce thread......

Ok, first I am not shill or related to, or affiliated with NuForce in any way...I just thought that we should have a thread to discuss the V2...

I just placed the Reference 9 SE "V2" in my system after living with the NuForce 9 SE for the past year and auditioning the Reference 9 V2 for the past 2 months...

I am putting out there for comment and debate that the Reference 9 SE V2 is one of the top 5 best amplifiers out there and currently available. (I personally think that it one of the top 3, but I am leaving room for argument)

Sitting in my room last night I was reminded of one of those transforming audio experiences. My first ones was couple of hours with the Sinus Faber Amati Homage pushed with a full compliment of the top of the line ML gear all with in a perfectly treated room....My experience with the Reference 9 SE V2 was like that...

Please comment if you are able on the V2 in general, what was your experience?? Are your thought of the Reference 9 SE V2 the same??

The Ref 9 SE V2 out performs the Ref 9 V2 by a significant margin, this whole thread was initiated after listing to the Ref 9 SE V2 (and reviewing the Ref 9 V2). While I was very very impressed with the Ref 9 V2...it was the SE V2 that compelled me to make the claims as I did.

drubin go to the person your purchased your amp from, get a price make payment you will get a RA and be in line for the upgrade, like i said above the price for SE to v2 is much more reasonable than the first upgrade,

I got my notice to send mine in for upgrade. They are being sent tomorrow. As I said I am very happy with the sound of my 9SE's and can't wait to hear the V2 version. To my ears cables make less improvement to these then any other amps that I have owned. They are just so clean and clear without that "edge". One more point and that is these are the first amps that I have owned that I like just as much during the day as at late night. All other amps that I have owned could only be listened to late at night when the power supply was "less dirty"; that is to say if you wanted them to sound there best.
