My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each!
Viber, you are totally right.  Didn’t mean to make it absolute.  It all depends on occompanying equipment as well and it’s hard ever that bad.Jafox, great post - for me when I say transparent is more to describe when speakers can let you hear ever...

Jafox, totally get where you are coming from.  Was just asking since a friend and I were listening to a well recorded album on my MLs with all AQ cabling (speaker + interconnects) and we literally thought someone walked in the room since the sound...

Also @jafox have you tried AudioQuest with Martin Logan speakers?  You mentioned they don’t give 3D space.  If so, which speaker cables?From my experience, AQ pairs really well with ML and gives some of the most amazing 3D sound stage I have heard...

WCMSS, if you decided to move away from Odins at some point, you may want to put the new AQ series cables into serious consideration.  The power cables have already been discussed and their new speaker cables use some of that technology.I have bee...

The point Viber raises for clarity vs. depth is an interesting one.  I have been trying to figure out how to balance the two for a while.  I pinpointed this down the the interconnect to the amp for my setup.I have been using AQ Earth copper interc...

WC’s journey has been awesome and enjoyable.  Nowhere did he say he set out to make everyone happy.  He is just sharing his experience, talking about it and getting feedback. One thing I would say is this thread really does need less insults and b...

Techno, all electrostats need power, albeit very little power.  The pure elecrostats use the power to accomplish what Viber said above.  This technology has been around for 40+ years.  Some of the upper-mid-range ML hybrid electrostats have intern...

I really like AQ and have a lot of their cables, but I do have to agree that their recent PCs and speaker cables are clouded in a mystery.  Was talking to a dealer and he mentioned the AQ reps didn't have much insight on the cables either.  Yet th...

@Techno, why would you want to put a DAC in a high end preamp?  That’s the one technology that needs to be upgraded over the years and somewhat depreciates quicker.  Sure, you could go with the approach of the McIntosh integrateds by adding in an ...

Thanks guys appreciate the insight! 
Anybody else using AV880x as 2 channel preamp?
I use the av8805 as both a 2ch preamp and multichannel.  Have to say it sounds pretty nice.  Was planning on getting a dedicated 2ch preamp soon but no longer feel the rush to do so.  Nice to save the space until we have more room.

Been following this thread from a long while.  Thanks WCSS for creating such an awesome journey for us all to follow.  Owning a couple of pairs of ML ESLs, I was hoping you would pick up the Neolith!From my experience with MLs, they are some of th... 
Home Theater Receiver recommendations for B&W 803S?
@awilder Did you upgrade the fuse?  Just curious if it made a difference. 
Is Marantz AV8805 good enough pre amp for McIntosh MC8207
I have the Mac MC452 paired with a Marantz 8805.  Sounds phenomenal, been testing with 2ch and have to say they work well together.  I am using the combo with Martin Logan Impression 11A’s and have to say the sound stage, instrument separation, an...
