How did you hear about Audiogon?
Sean, you're such a "punny" guy ! 
Vandy 2CE S or Gershman's Cameleon: High-End Spks?
I owned a pair of the Vandersteen 2B speakers in 1983 and enjoyed them immensely for 15 years. It also took a well set up Linn LP-12 to really appreciate them. I own the new Meadowlark Osprey, but I sometimes miss my Vandies. They really grow on y... 
How did you hear about Audiogon?
Browsing the internet a year ago in Feb., trying to find a site to sell my Linn LP-12 and Klyne SK-2A headamp, I found www.audioreview.com. After reading a few reviews, I came across one that mentioned he had bought his component on Audiogon. The ...

Plinius 8150i vs. Plinius 8200 mk. 2?

neutrality vs. realism

Will the Plinius 8200 Mk1 fit my needs?
On the contrary, I had the Plinius 8200 and it isn't bright.If the Plinius sounds bright, then look elsewhere in the chain. I would search the threads under Dynaudio and see what amps some of the owners are/were using. I just sold my Plinius 8200 ... 
neutrality vs. realism
Most everyone in one way or another have touched on my feelings about "neutrality" and "realism" so I won't expound, but I'll tell a quick story. About 26 years ago(give or take) I was just getting into my first "high-end" system ( Musical Concept...

Edge NL-10 Amp
I'm curious if anyone has done a comparison of Edge vs. Gryphon. There is another camp out there who swears that Gryphon is the best s.s. if not the best,period.

advice on brightness
I can only comment on the ARC integrated which is what I have in my second system. This may or may not help with the brightness, but a Shunyata Sidewinder Gold power cord is a perfect synergistic match for the Complete and it shouldn't break the b...
