Hey Jjerry, it was lonely ......

I am elated you like the HHO gear. I am getting flogged at the Apogee forum.

Do me a favor, and make my ribbon SCs. I will mail you the simple instructions. Then turn your amps around to shorten the distance. You will make good money on your other cables.

As for a DAC, you can't go better than buying or building the Audio Note 2.1 DAC as I have been preaching. Ask Henry what to change the diodes out with. Just that little change and...... Oh my God.

I have horns on now - Forme d' arte by Andrea Giuffredi. The trumpet is triumphantly searing, but never uncomfortable. If you can find it, it is a must have.

Oh, there are some natural Scintillas up north in Vancouver. They would be a rewarding buy. Just don't get them restored. I did that, and am selling them to someone with Classe' or Krells. Luckily, I still have my old guys.
Don't get him started again.

Just read any of muralman's other threads. Everything is the same.

nos, scintillas, h20, home made speaker cables, my system is best, ad nauseum.

yawn.
Souphero, the restored Scintillas will sound almost just like the older ones on any amp capable of running well at 1 ohm, and that is a precious few. A lot of folks are enjoying them. With say, a Krell, the top gains a bit of pepper. That's nice for a sleepy class A amp.

With my amps, the salsa on top turns into tobasco. Any instrument with a sharp report was a painful listen. Zakir Hussain playing his tabla sounded all the like of lead pipes smacking each other.

It has nothing to do with, "Tired ribbons," a retort I hear too often. Henry Ho has freshly ribboned Scintillas, only with natural Apogee ribbons. His sound like mine.
Audiofeil, [dealer] what are you doing here? You don't own the H2O. You are just a spoiler.
