Shoot-out Klyne 7xp3.5 vs IO Signature

Nkj, Would you care to tell us what amp and speakers you are using, what music you prefer, etc? As far as I can tell your system is not posted. Thanks.
Anyone here ever compare the Klyne to the Pass Xono?

Nkj, Great system. Have you tried the Futterman H3s on the Quads? Our tastes in equipment are somewhat congruent, as I am using Atma-sphere MP1 preamp and Atma amps to drive Sound Lab M1s and have owned Quads, KLH9s, Futtermans, etc. My closest audio buddy in this area uses Berning ZH270s (a pair in mono configuration) to drive Acoustats. This is not so off-topic, since it convinces me you may be on to something with the Klyne.

Nkj, You might get significant improvement in the sound from the Futterman H3 by bypassing the electrolytic output caps using high quality film caps. If you have an original H3, an even better thing to do would be to get rid of the old lytics and replace them with some state-of-the-art low-ESR types that are now available, like Panasonic TS-EDs or FCs (depending upon the voltage rating needed) THEN bypass those new lytics with some good film caps. I predict this will ameliorate the grainy quality you hear but will also have unanticipated benefits across the board.
