Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon

I also thought of Wavestream and DNM...two of my favorites.

I live only a few miles from the analog room in San Jose and have heard Scott's V8's many times....excellent.
I believe George Cardas also uses these amps.

I own Scott's newest creation his wavestream kinetics phono stage and it is also marvelous.

In addition I have a pair of his MFA 200d's that he has modified over the years as he develops new thoughts on design...they are also excellent.

There seems to be a consistency here with the stff Scott does...hmmm.

Next up is his Wavestream Kinetics Line Stage...can't wait.

Nestorovic, GNP, Quintessence, Beveridge, and uh, Quasar.

Albertporter,
If you are in Northern California some time just drop me an email and come by for a listen.

Yr44,
Here is a link to a picture showing a pair of Wavestream Kinetics V-8 monoblocks:

Glide3,
Would love to hear the MFA 200d's.

I got the first production model of the Wavestream phonoamp almost a year ago last Thanksgiving Day. Arrived at the Analog Room at 3p and Brian and Scott met me beaming like proud parents. After admiring it for about an hour (the shop was of course closed) I drove away with it. Looking back over my shoulder they looked like they had just given up their first born.

It is brilliant design which competes with the best. I, as you surely, have done the side-by-side comparisons with the Wavestream and the Aesthetix Io.

P.S. The line for Scott's new Linestage forms behind me. That will give me a complete Wavestream Kinetics system.

Smokester,

holy cow, that's one sweet-lookin' pair of amps. Sure cannot afford it right now. Thx for the pic.

haven't seen any Emerson's or Close-n-Play's lately either ;+)
