    DMA-500 Anniversary Reference Monoblocks

    Anyone heard these amps yet? Also what do you think is a fair price for a used pair of DMA-400's?

    The new Magico M6, M Pro replacement

    I'm not sure I like the way it connects to the base. Seeing that daylight under it looks weird to me. But I bet it sure sounds good.

    Spectral SDR-4000SV

    You are correct on the software, especially after any power glitch, but at least it reboots every time! I've also had switches lock up before on both the CD and Preamp.

    Spectral SDR-4000SV

    Ack, do you know if there is going to be an upgrade path for the previous model?

    I'd rather see them release a DAC or Phono Section...

    Spectral DMC-30 SV

    Ack, very articulate review. I also have this same setup and agree with your conclusions. Although I was guilty of changing a few things all at once and not going back and forth to A/B them. The first thing I noticed was the greater depth of the sound stage and the blacker background from which...

    Stillpoints and Magico

    I would tend to agree with him and I always new this was their position on SP. But in the case I used them with success, the M5 and it's flat bottom caused a lot of instability and you could easily rock the speaker due to my particular setup. I think that by adding the SP I created a much more...

    Stillpoints and Magico

    I used to have them under my M5's and thought they made a big improvement. One they raised the speaker a bit which was good for my room, my ear height etc.... and they also allowed me to stabilize the speaker as I was part on a rug and part off. Do not have the M5's any longer and the M Projects...

    MIT Articulation Consoles

    I'm an idiot, I let my dealer send me a pair of these MIT monsters to try in my system. Cables should not make that kind of difference... More space between the instruments, better quality and more bass, crisp, taught, great undertones, etc..., just a lot more natural top to bottom. Not sure it...

    Spectral DMC-30 SV

    New DMC-30SV preamp arrived yesterday. Have not even opened it yet but will do so this weekend. Kind of surprised it came this soon.

    M-Project

    I have the DMA-400's and the room is ~14' x 17' with 12' ceilings. Room has some unique features like built in record cubbies on one wall. various ASC treatments and quiet rock drywall. Not a SOTA room by any means but it works for me. Never planned on going this "high end" when I built it...

    Spectral DMC-30 SV

    I think Spectral has plenty of requests for the new phono stage as well as a DAC. I have a standing order in for years on both. Was told this summer to get the new pre amp and phono hopefully by year end.
