    Soulution vs. Constellation?

    I have a totally opposite view of Altanpsx. I own Solution 7-series pre-power and compared to Constellation setup. Both setups sounds not like ss but a little more tube sound on mid ranges and solution is far better on speed and control. Whereas ? did own Gryphons in the past and they are...

    Congrats on Strads. a good solid state is giving a much better performance. I have used it with MBL 9008A monos than with gryphon Antileon signature stereo and since last 7 years with Soulution 7 series pre and stereo amp.

    SVS subwoofers

    Did anyone uses svs subs in their 2ch system? Is it worth the money? How is the performance vs JL audio subs?

    Sonus Faber Stradivari ....

    Cant give any opinion on the 35th anniversary version but Y would definitely go with the 3 year old model. Since that model was the pinnacle of Franco's design. Later all the new and old iterations have lost the SF sound.

    How's does Spectral compare to Soulution ? Sound wise

    Cant comment on Spectral gear since it is not represented in Turkey. But since 5 years I am a very happy and loyal owner of Soulution 700's pre & power combo. I did several auditions vs Soulution combo but nevertheless in all of the cases Soulution was far better on imaging, bass control, really...

    What is the best transport? (For those not interested in computer audio rabbit hole)

    I had esoteric p-03 for several years and last 3 years I am using Metronome Kalista reference and it is still far better than esoteric. Despite the fact that you can not word sync it with your dac. One clear advantage of metronome vs esoteric was the deliverance of transparency of the record and...
