Tidal speakers... particulary Tidal Sunray
I have heard the new Contriva with the ceramic drivers in several occasions and setups, quite easily one of the best sounds I have ever heard. Very neutral but quite musical as well!Hope this helps,Mike 
Wilson Maxx 2 vs Sonus Faber Stradivari
Stealth Indra should be a great choice with Sonus Faber! You can also try Yter, which is the same cable as the one inside the Strads.Good Luck and Happy Listening! 
Wilson Maxx 2 vs Sonus Faber Stradivari
Very different speakers, same class I suppose, personal taste is the main factor for deciding! 
Weiss Dac2/Minerva?
But what does "better" means?I owned the EMM LABS CDSA and now the Weiss Medea. They sound so different to each other that it is a matter of personal preference. I am not saying the one is better than the other, they just sound completely differen... 
Weiss Dac2/Minerva?
The Weiss Medea with the Weiss Vesta Firewire unit. 
Weiss Dac2/Minerva?
I haven't heard the Berkeley DAC but I have owned/auditioned to EMM LABS, TOP ESOTERIC, DCS, AMR and I can honestly say that to my hears Weiss outperforms all of them. 
DAC with the best midrange ever.....
The only DACs I have heard that sound like music itself are the Weiss Minerva and Medea. Not to thin, not too warm, just like music. 
Shindo Masseto Tubes and Fuses
No problem YG, as a matter of fact I took out of my system 5000$ worth of power cords and I am now using the cheap stock ones. They were all filtering the sound of my system.Enjoy searching,Mike 
Shindo Masseto Tubes and Fuses
I would suggest you to better use the stock power cable than the Virtual Dynamics Master. This power cord acts like a filter bringing the middle frequencies in front, cutting a lot of high frequencies and boosting the bass. IMHO 
Problem with Tube?
Thank you very much guys, I suppose that since the tubes are not very expensive the wisest thing to do would be to change the tubes.Kind Regards,Mike 
Purist Audio vs. Harmonic Technology
If your system is bright or towards the lean side go with the purist otherwise go with the Harminic Technology.Kind RegardsMike 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
Vett93 I tried both amps and digital, as well as digital alone. In both cases the system became muddy and lost transparency and realism.Kind regardsMike 
Who has dumped the power conditioner?
I dumped a Hydra-4 in a week. It was screwing the sound so much.
