| Recs for solid state integrated, $2-3,000 range Look at all Blue Circle integrated amplifiers. I have a Blue Circle DAR, a hybrid amp with one NOS 6SN7 - gorgeous looking, even better sound - so very musical. Hand made by Gilbert Yeung in Ontario. | |
| Bright Star and Silent Running Audio Isolation I have an SRA Ohio Base amp stand - spectacular. Beautifully made (and looking), it tightened up the bass in ways I've never heard before. Overall resolution improved throughout the spectrum. Kevin Tellekamp a great guy to work with; very responsi... | |
| Sonny Boy Williamson "Keep It To Ourselves" A superb album! If you like blues, this will delight. | |

| BAT-VK60 or Art Audio Jota --mono amps? I own the Parsifal Encores and run them currently with a VAC Renaissance 30-30 MkIII amp. They make a wonderful combination, even though the VAC is "only" 32 watts per channel. What is missing in this discussion about the Verities is the need for ... | |

| Best Used Cd Transport Between 1200- 1500 Audiomeca Mephisto I (not the current, much more expensive model). Available for around $1,200. - $1,400. Finest mid-range available - analog. Beautiful styling to boot. A great product. | |
| Shun Mook Audio Yes, their speakers are tremendous, some of the best made. Few places to hear them. If in San Francisco area, the manufacturers will invite you to their home for an audition. | |
| Audiomecca Mephisto I own an Audiomeca Mephisto, but not the current MkII model. It is a glorious transport, with analogue sound mid-range, tight bass, and sweet highs. One of the best ever made. |
