DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
with ''right'' associated gear and cables Puccini outperforms any one box cdp in the market. Period.me? actual Puccini user who realy lives on daily basis. 
Wilson Sophia2s demand better than AYRE V5xe, so..
Since I used own Pass X250.5, I would say Pass labs would be best candidate. However, Dartzeel is also strong contender but not many arround as seconhand. I have Krell 402 and almost satisfied with it. Lastly keep avoided Boulder power amps for So... 
Krell Evolution 402 Vs. Pass Labs X.5 Series?
Elite audio,Send my regards the guys at Krell, Wilson and Pass. Tell them why they don't build their gear compatible with cat 45 or gigalan even wireless? :) Audphile1If I had chance to mate my amp with Evo 202, I definetly would do. It is not av... 
Krell Evolution 402 Vs. Pass Labs X.5 Series?
Audphile1X350.5 stops around 25-30 class a watts according to Nelson's post at diyaudio. I don't want to accommodate 2 monos, I have only place for a single power amp. I agree about Sophias and don't have any intention to swap them. You are wrong ... 
Krell Evolution 402 Vs. Pass Labs X.5 Series?
Audphile1Nothing wrong with Pass X250.5. It can compete any S.State power amp as long as it doesn't leave Class A. It is a little bit dark sounding amplifier that is it. If Nelson Pass could make a stereo amp, class a or heavy biased AB (first cla... 
which preamp match best with Krell Evo 402 ?
I see either 202 or 222 will be a nice match acording to suggetions. However, Audio research Ref 3 would be another strong candidate? 
Wilson Sophia 2 or Focal Electra 1037 be?
R_patonI have already bought Sophia 2 almost 3 years ago. Plaese check my setup 
Wilson Sophia 2 or Focal Electra 1037 be?
I love both speakers. I am thinking to amplify SF with a dedicated poweramp in soon future. I haven't decided what to buy for SF.(Pass labs xa-30.5, Nuforce 9v2........) 
Wilson Audio MAXX series III
sooner or later there will be also maxx 4, Sophia 3, Alexandria 3, W/P 10...........the matter is we can replace speakers but not our ears? 
Wilson Sophia II vs. Thiel CS3.7
Tom,Universaly speaking, again, wilson Audio has better resale chance than Thiels. I live in Europe and I know that wilson Audio has a wider distributor network and more popularity than Thiels. 
Wilson Sophia II vs. Thiel CS3.7
hee4 I have sophia 2, I couldn't find a good reason to upgrade it system 8. I have observed that speaker has a amazing potential and could be used wisely top equipment. Check my setup and Elberoth's system. You will see how heavily we invested on ... 
Wadia 581SE, DCS Puccini or something else???
I have puccini and asked directly to DCS about plastic remote control. They said soon they will upgrade it to much better looking a hefty (brushed alum.)one. People like me who purchased Puccini or Paganini will pay a reasonable upgrade feee. BTW,...

mikelavigne,I agree with your findings. I have also upgraded to MM2 and was looking to replace Valhalla. I have tested Odin together with my own setup.(check my setup, you will see the pics.) Odin is perfectly matched with transparents, than I tri...
