Davt,Thanks for the update on your experience with the VTL. The 21A is an outstanding piece of gear at its price point. I just upgraded my very good 1960's GE BP Triple Micas to 1960's 12AU7 Telefunken smooth plates and what a difference in bass,i... 
speaker cables for Wilson Sophia
I have owned Transparent, MIT, Kimber, Goertz, Dynamic Design, Maestro, AQ and many others but JPS Labs Superconductor 3 puts them all to shame without a question.

Spent the last few days comparing my friends 22A against my 21A and can say without a doubt that the 21A is superior. The 22A has a small advantage in its ability to place instruments in a defined space but the images lack the size and depth of th...

Hoff48,Thanks for taking the time to give your observations on both units. I know it was probably a hard decision to get rid of the acclaimed 21A with Auricaps but I hear the 22A has so much potential as you have outlined in detail on tube rolling... 
Speakers in 10-15K price range for Classical music
I listen to Classical and Gospel only and what Avguy mentioned about the Avalons' are spot-on. I have the Ascendants and my listening position is 9' away and you get the feeling that you are part of the performance. I thought my Thiels and Vander... 
Notes on Harbeth, Vandersteen, Avalon & Spendor
Guys, My Ascendants are 5 weeks old now and have really opened up quite a bit. I have been experimenting with placement and find that 7' seperation from tweeter to tweeter provides the best overall sound with a listening distance of 10'. My 2 Ce S...
