Dartzeel or Mark Levinson 33H


Dartzeel or Mark Levinson 33H? I am thinking of switching out my amps. Which of these do you think would offer better sound and synergy to my rigs. Other amps recommendation is also appreciated as well.

Wilson Benesch Chimera speakers, Virtual Dynamics Genesis cabling, Audio Aero Capitol, Chord dsp 8000 pre/pro, Chord SPM 6000 monoblocks. Thanks guys.

your Chimera's are 88db, 4 ohms.....they are on the more difficult to drive side of the equation. the Levinson 33H will be slightly more capable of filling a large space with these speakers compared to the darTZeel. OTOH the dart is quite a bit lower noise than the 33H, is more transparent and it's high frequencies are more delicate and extended. i prefer the bass articulation of the dart to the 33H's.

i think the clarity of the Chimera's make them natural partners with the very refined darTZeel....and the benefits of that synergy would outweigh whatever marco-dynamic compromises might exist.....at least for my particular priorities. the 33h is no slouch in terms of musicality but it's not in the class of the darTZeel. i owned 33H's for 2 years and have owned dart's for 3 years.

it depends on the size of your room. in a small room the dart is the obvious choice. as the room gets bigger there are trade-offs.
I brought the dartzeel amp to my customer to do a direct comparison with his 33H. His system at the time was the Levinson 33H, 32, EMM CDSA, Sonus Stradivari. The Dartzeel was superior in every way (far more natural, better focus, depth layering, sense of 3D space, more natual bass, far more transparent, etc.).
My customer moved to the dartzeel amp and pre-amp very soon after.
