Podeschi I couldn't agree with you more. I am now using myaudiocable (MAC) in silver as the umbilical and like it better than Dan's new cable. The Sony player has that midrange that I have not heard in other players. I even compared it to the Playback Designs CD player and it was not even close. Dan hit a home run with this one. My Aesthetix Io Signature phono stage matches up beautifully with the VAC Preamp. By the way anyone going to RMAF this year?
Why Not More Conversation about VAC?
As I browse Audiogon's posts...I'm constantly amazed at the lack of attention, questions, remarks about VAC, (Valve Amplification Company).
First and foremost, I'm thinking that most if not all of us are music lovers--and I'm not aware, subjectively, of course, of more, just out and out, musical sounding electronics. And, I don't mean that in a perjorative, 'colored' sense...I mean that in the most flattering sense.
The lack of comments may mean nothing, but it just strikes me as 'absent' from good discussions.
Second, and beyond the stellar sound, if you want great gear, and a great person to buy it from, who better in terms of accommodation, knowledge and service than Kevin Hayes. Like the Bobster (Palkovic) his reputation for building first rate stuff and then backing it to the hilt is unsurpassed.
Kevin is also a great guy AND music lover of the first order...a friend too, but I'm not shilling here, just seriously wondering why VAC isn't further up the discussion ladder.
Kinda like reading Motor Trend Magazine, in which they 'Test Drive' a Mustang in EVERY ISSUE!!!
Just wondering.
