Hi Guys,
Recently joined the forum as it has a dedicated Spectral section.
I live in the UK and am the proud owner of a DMC-15/DMA-250 combo. Front end is an Accuphase DP-85 SACD/CD player, soon to be upgraded to a new DP-410.
Speakers are Focal 1028 be. Interconnects are MIT Matrix 12
I am very happy with my set up apart from the sad fact that Spectral no longer have a presence in the UK. About 3 years ago their UK distributor retired & has not been replaced. Both my pre/power were returned to the factory this year for repair, so they are still looking after me. However it's very frustrating not to be able to upgrade to a DMC-15SS or even a 30SS! Voltage in the UK is 240 so imports are out.
My dealer, who was very supportive of Spectral, has had no choice but to offer his customers alternatives from the likes of Accuphase, Nagra.
I understand officially that the DMA-250 cannot be used with any other preamp but Spectral. I just wondered if this is set in stone?
Appreciate any feedback
