    Pilium Audio Odysseus

    I agree on your logic. It is a big money game to achieve that last 5-10% that normal mortals can never afford. Certainly a bigger, powerful amp is nice thing to have but I guess it doesn't warrant that anymore.

    Pilium Audio Odysseus

    Compared amps are both similar price bracket. I have never expected the performance to be up to 90% of their higher echelons.

    Pilium Audio Odysseus

    I am thinking about scaling down the gear hence why I have decided to go either way. I got a quote from my dealer and not much separates the 2. Theseus comes in a bit less though. Odysseus seems rather tempting although was told to go for the Leonidas before. The Theseus seems rather tempting as...

    Pilium Audio Odysseus

    Hi all, has anybody on here had first hand experience with the Pilium Audio Odysseus? I have been considering between the Odysseus and the Theseus (waiting on a spec sheet). I had an opportunity of listening to the more costlier Ares/Achilles and like what I heard. Would the latter be better a...

    gryphon .vs. luxman .vs. pilium

    I have enquired about Theseus and Odysseus integrated from my local dealer. I heard the Kharma Veyron's driven by the Ares/Achilles and was simply enamoured. Just amazing.

    New amp / Advice

    Consider the ARC with Gryphons. Boulder 2160 as well. VAC pre/Boulder 1160 was a combo that I wanted get. If I may, suggest you to look at the CH Precisions.

    gryphon .vs. luxman .vs. pilium

    How do you like yours? See you drive thhe Magicos. I heard the Ares/Achilles amp drive Kharmas (that video on YouTube) and like what I heard. In a way it is clean and crisp sound similar to Soulution.

    gryphon .vs. luxman .vs. pilium

    I have been thinking of getting the Pilium Audio Theseus to replace my Soulution setup by driving the amp dcs/MSB (still thinking if I should get them). Thought about the Pilium Audio integrateds briefly as well.

    Top of the Line Tube Amplifier Companies?

    Had ARC Ref 5 before the VAC. The ARC was good but VAC is special and exotic.

    Antileon Evo paired with Tube linestage ?

    Swapped my VAC Signature linestage with a gentleman who owns a Mephsito that drives a pair of Tidals. He says it is very holographic compared to his Soulution 520 and loved the sound. I swapped the VAC for a Soulution 511 as I needed the amplifier. VAC linestages work very well with solid...
