Spectron MIII mk II owner's question.

Spectron MIII mk II owners are you in the process of looking at other amps to replace your Spectrons ?
Do you feel that your search is over, a bit from over or far from over ?

My answer is after working with several name brands amps, Spectrons are the last amps that I will ever own.
End of the line for me.
My ownership is about 3 years and since then I never became interested in something else.

Apart from the musical presentation this amp is physically easy to move around and really does not occupy space, low heat output and I never switch them off.

I like to find out how much are other satisfied.
Thank you.

Yes, today are Class D switching amps ‘all over the place’. I do not know if others are real contenders to Spectrons’ but I’m really happy what four of them do in my system. Like many other Spectron lovers also I finished with Joule Electra JE-450ME which offering natural synergy with Spectrons. Four Spectrons are of course controlled by electronic crossover Pass Labs XVR-1 and drive SoulSonics Impulse Supreme speakers which are added to system few months back when replaced loved MG 20.1.
I sincerely hope that Spectrons will remain in my system for long, long time.

When I upgraded my amp from a SE to a mk.2 I made Simon put the new at the time Cuft V-caps instead of the tin foil teflons. I couldn't be happier. It gave the amp a beautiful natural tone, which most Class d amps are missing.
Did anybody else put the copper foils instead of the tin foils in their amps?

Thanks for the hint ! I was already thinking about it. Didn't know Spectron were doing it themselves.

I've got copper caps in mine: Duelund CAST/PIO-CU. A bit more expensive, but a really natural sound.
