The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"!
I just ordered an s5.5 from Mike from Archon Audio. I should get it approximately March 18th right after I return from vacation. I’m really excited to get into my system. I’ll keep you posted on my impressions as it burns in over time.    Jeff  
The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"!
My speakers are Magico S5’s. I’m not sure if I would really need the extra power but was curious about the mono block configuration. I currently have a Luxman m900u driving the speakers which I think works very well but, am curious if more power w...

Has anyone tried using two of these amps in bridged mono mode? If so, how does it compare to one in stereo?.  Thanks.   
Magico A3 to A5
I’ve owned the S5’s for several years now. I think they are fantastic. When I demoed them at the dealer I also got to hear the S3 and to me the S5 was clearly better. From what I understand the S5 mk2 is even better. I think they are a great choic... 
Furutech FP-TCS31 With FI-28 (R) Better than Virtual Dynamics Nite II Cord? Please Help
I’m glad it sounds good for now.  You are in for a long roller coaster ride for several weeks based on my experience. Stay patient, it’s worth it.

What is a reasonable price for NOS 6H30P-DR Reflektor Tubes?
Thank you both for your input. It was very helpful.   
Older Revel vs Newer Magicos
For what it’s worth my experience is not the exact same speakers but close. I owned a pair of the original Revel Studios for several years and I now have a pair of the original Magico S5’s. The difference is not even close. The Magico’s are far be... 
Info vovox textura
I have one of their power on my cdp and it is a bargain at the price. Have not tried their interconnect or speaker cables.  
Any harm to leaving my SACD player on all the time to toslink input?
I have an Esoteric K 03 that I leave on 24/7 except when I’m away for an extended period of time. I’ve done this since 2012 with no issues. I’ve been told this is fine as long as the tray is empty because the reader will constantly try to read the... 
Connect a sub to stereo system
Do you have a second pair of outputs on your preamp? 
Suggestions for a power strip or conditioner?
Thank you all for your responses. Yes Lowrider57 I am really looking for a surge protector rather than a conditioner. 
Cable synergy for EAR Yoshino products.
I've had great success with Kubala Sosna Emotion and Elation cables with an EAR 890 amp. Wonderful stuff. 
Expected hours for JJ Tesla KT88?
I have no experience with the KT88's but, I've used JJ EL34's and had the same problem as you. I switched to SED winged "C" EL 34 tubes and have had no problems at all. From what I've read, JJ tends to have a lot of quality problems. They sound go... 
Burlington, VT - Any interest in starting a club?
Hi Eric;Yes, I'd be interested. There are not many audiophiles in this area so getting to no others is a good thing. Hopefully we can find others that are interested. I'm down in Brattleboro.Jeff
