Hi Warren,
I've connected my Stealth to my analog components and left the digital on the PS-300. With a little power cord swapping I think I've hit on the winning combination. I sense a broadening of the soundstage, along with slightly increased depth and a greater sense of space between instruments. The music seems to have not only moved a little farther back, but also in front of the speaker plane. I know not everyone likes that kind of presentation, but I sure do. More immediate and involving.
The only probably I'm having is getting the Stealth to remain upright without the help of mass loading the top. The weight and pressure of the substantial power cords connected in the rear makes it do a "wheelie". I currently have an unattractive oversized piece of scrap Corian on top to keep it on the cones I've got under it, but even without the cones it pops it's front legs in the air. Have you had the same problem?
Considering the Stealth has only approx 200 hrs on it, it's sounding very good. The instructions say it can take up to 500 hrs, with the sonics improving along the way. If that's true, I'm really looking forward to experiencing that ride to the top!
