I'm putting in my order, next week, (finally have the $$) for a pair of Harmonix Golden Performance ICs. Never heard them, but heard tons of second hand (amazing) experiences. Enough to order a pair. I know a fellow audiophool, with a pair golden-i trust- ears, who has heard them AB'd against the Valhallas and the Harmonix were preferred. That was enough for me. Never steered me wrong yet. I'm also purchasing, at the same time, their Studio Master Power cords. Have heard the same 'bout these babies, as well. A buddy of mine replaced all his Elrods with these. Again, enough for me. And enough from me. Just some FWIW.....;peace, warren
Analysis Plus Crystal ovals vs. Nordost Valhalla??
Anyone that can tell me what I can expect if I spent the bigger bucks for the Nordost?
I am using it to connect CD player (linn Ikemi) via XLR 1.0m run to a McIntosh C100 pre-amp.
It's a nice, clean sounding system right now. Will it get better?
I have the Crystal Ovals also connecting to two MC352 vertically bi-wired amps, also XLR to preserve this system's wonderfully fully balanced concept. These will have to stay for a while, although I would consider switching these to Valhalla in the future also.
Thanks,,,, appreciate anyone's experience/opinions.
