LFD mkIII vs Red Wine Audio 30.2

Thanks for your post Brawny. I don't want to go the tube route right now, as I feel it is too much maintenance. But your post summarizes what I wanted to know about the Sig 30.2. You mention about RWA not doing a job as good as very fine SET. A very fine SET can be damn expensive and may not suite the Quads. So all in all, I get the impression that the Sig 30.2 is a fine amp that you cannot go wrong with - except the increments in volume. Right now I can think of the non-integrated Sig 30.2 with a TVC pre-amp.

Again, I appreciate your response.

Regards,

Hi Panu21,
Any thoughts/reviews about your LFD amp? Hope you are having a great time with it.
Thanks,

have had it about 1 week now and have put a limited amount of hours on it because i have been on vacation a few days.it is certainly the best amp i have had although i have had limited experience in hi end.  have had a musical fidelity x-150, PS Audio gcc-100 and a prima luna dialogue 1. the LFD is head and shoulders above them in soundstageand the best i can explain is that for the first time i can hear every instrument in its own space without any congestion. have also been impressed with vocals especially the detail in backgrounds. it seems to have a certain volume peak where it sounds best and when exceeded starts to lose thatsoundstage and clarity but that level is loud enough for me where it is not an issue.  so far very impressed

Panu21,
What are you trying to do? Tempt me to get the LFD? Just kidding. Good to know that the amp has surpassed your expectations. And don't worry, you have more experience than me in hi-end amps. I am so tempted about this amp, now that that you have supplemented with the reviews that I have already read. I am not really worried about loud - as the music I listen should be heard at moderate level - and I don't have a mansion.
Thanks again for your prompt reply, and congrats on your new acquisition.
