Finally replace previous tube preamp with C-600. It’s a match made in heaven with other TAD gears.

Congrats @kimurastanley ! The C600 is absolutely an amazing preamp, really transparent and elegant (almost tube like) certainly one of the best match for the 700s. Besides all the positif upsides do you feel that you "lost" something in the sound compared to your previous VAC Preamplifier?
Congrats! This is a fantastic move and a natural pairing for you...I dont feel lost much by changing. In fact, I feel the obvious improvement I got is more enveloping and enganging sound.
I’m still waiting for the C700. Right now using the C2000. I hope to see it in Munich 2024. My next thing will be to see if I keep my fantastic CE1TX. I have the full 700 series by than. M, D and C700. Only the speakers will be Evolution. So will be interesting if the CR1TX is that much better vs CE1 to spend the extra money.Congrats! This is a fantastic move and a natural pairing for you...
I'm also targeting to pair a M700s with my C600 but the size of this Power Amp is not easy to manage in a classical Parisian apartment

The C2000 is a really good pre-amp but not a C600 (or C700 pretty soon). The C2000 has a great DAC build in but not as extraordinary as the one in the D700. The sound stage is very good but it is again not the C600.what's your thoughts on c2000?
I have heard TAD spks sound harsh and bright when paired with other brands electronics. I have also heard TAD spks sound polite and mellow, when paired with accuphase. So TAD spks portray the electronics characteristics in a honest way.
Which electronics are you using now Amir in this setup?Yes, TAD Speakers portray the electronics characteristics in a honest way.
TAD R1 is the most transparent loudspeaker I have ever heard.

Those R1’s sound spectacular but a bit difficult to squeeze in a normal living room. So I guess the CR1TX is the closest move into that direction.Yes, TAD Speakers portray the electronics characteristics in a honest way.

I am distributor of both TAD Laboratories and Vitus Audio so I can have both of them for demonstration.Ah, the TAD set is still in place. So what brings the best harmony? Obviously the Vitus set is extremely good as well.
New price list of Vitus Audio:The Vitus should cost much more than the TAD?
