I had to bring the VAC back to the dealer as I couldn't fix it hear. My son wasn't very happy about having to move it again. Service tech looked at it and said he thought it was a bad cap or resistor. Definitely a 60hz type hum. They will fix and I'll try again. Wish the dealer wasn't 60 miles away from me..
I'll be testing it with a pair of Wilson Duettes and a REL G1 sub. Dealer bought it in a package deal from a big NYC dealer that got it when a customer died.
It's probably dumb to even post this since there was that 60hz hum when I was listening to it on Wednesday but I got 30 minutes in with the Duettes and it sounded thick with my gear (NAT Magnetic Preamp, PS Audio digital front end). We'll see what it sounds like when it's fixed but my expectations are lower than they were last week. Dealer wanted me to try a pair of Cary Founders Edition amps or a Soulution amp. I don't have space for monoblocks and the Soulution is much too heavy for my rack at ~250 lbs.
