Thoughts on hearing a Wilson XVX Chronosonic System at Evolution Hifi
I've spent a couple of months with the Chronosonics, experiencing firsthand how they improved since newly installed. Two subsonic bass towers are also part of the system, driven by Boulder amplification. Absolutely phenominal scale, dynamics, detail and midrange. Best LF integration I've ever...- mariusc

$80K budget for Speakers
I agree, Focals and Magicos are too bright for me. I spent time with all three brands and ultimately sold my Vivid Audio G1s and replaced them with Alexias. No regrets for a single moment. The Alexia Vs are really special. My first choice would be the Alexx Vs, but they are in a different price...- mariusc

Sorry to hear about all your trouble. I had just the opposite experience. My three box IO Eclipse gave problems on one channel. I contacted Jim White in person, and he immediately responded and sent me a detailed test procedure. I returned the measurements, the fault was identified and...- mariusc

What Vintage Piece of Electronic Gear Did You Wish You Never Sold
I should have never sold my Krell Audio Standards. At that stage I liked the Jeff Rowland Model 9s more and sold the KAS mono blocks to a friend that exported them to the UK.

I had to do it to accommodate the many dCS boxes as well. The...- mariusc

I have Io Eclipse with two power supplies and additional line inputs. Up to now I have only used the stock tubes as supplied and matched by Jim. I do not have the time to do tube rolling. For best results, the two power supply boxes must be away from the main box as far as possible. I tried the...- mariusc

Pantheon arrived !
Philip should also listen to the G1 Spirits and Gryphon gear. I've used VTL Siegfried and Halcro for a long time, but quite recently started to evaluate the Gryphon amplifiers on my Vivid G1s. I have a Pandora pre and Antileon EVO power amplifier connected. Although I like the sound, I am not...- mariusc
