| Anyone heard the Odyssey monos vs Plinius amps? In answer to Fiddler regarding the HCA-2. I saw dramatic changes in the first two weeks of operation and none after that. In actual playing time. I think I had about 150-200hrs on the amp when I sent it back. I thought the amp was very good. In my... | |

| Anyone heard the Odyssey monos vs Plinius amps? Interesting question. I own the Stratos Mono's. I haven't heard the Plinius amps. I tried to find some in my area and was unsuccessful. The two bits of advice I can give you are: 1: The Stratos mono's definitely improve on the Stratos Stereo amp i... | |

| Am I the only one who thinks B&W is mid-fi? I have listened to various B&W for over twenty five years, including the original 800's 801's, 802 etc. I also listened to the one that looked like, and it may have had an electrstatic element in it. Most of the systems I have heard that had B... | |
| Review: Odyssey Audio Stratos mono Amplifier i also have the Stratos Monoblocks. I bought the Stratos monoblocks after having tried the new PS Audio HCA-2 and various other amps including Adcoms, Marantz, B&K and others. After auditions the only amps still in the running were the Stratos... | |

| Quad 989 vs Martin Logan CLS IIz? audiokinesis I didn't mean to sound harsh. I measured the level playing both speakers. I did try A and C weighting. Keep in mind that I'm probably getting a composite splice of front and backwave. I 've noticed that unlike a lot of speakers I've h... | |

| Quad 989 vs Martin Logan CLS IIz? I also had to respond to audiokinesis. I put a sound meter on the CLS2Z and I have to wonder what distance he referes too. I can get 95db out of them at 40 feet. I use a Radio shack sound meter. What is he using? | |
| Quad 989 vs Martin Logan CLS IIz? Never owned the 989 but I did for a short period have USA 63's. The CLS 2Z blows them away and doesn't have to be vacuumed and is infinitely more reliable. The CLS does need a sub. | |
| Magneplanar Tympani Obsession I must admit I have a tympani obsession too. I Have ML CLS2Z's and Tympani 1D's. People are amazed with the ML's, but they dance with the Tympani. If anyone has any mods can you please forward them. Magnepan said they are no longer doing Mod's on ... |
