Sonic Frontiers P3/T3 opinions needed..


Sorry but yet another Sonic Frontiers thread. I heard this combo awhile back but was too unfamiliar with the rest of the system that I couldn't draw any conclusions but it didn't sound bad for sure..I now see them selling very cheap (atleast when compared to new prices) and stereophile seemed to like them alot so I may give them a try. I've read of reliability issues with s/f but alteast they are located within driving distance to me. Any opinions on this pairing is greatly appreciated.

Hi Jman, I currently have the T3/P3 combo and absolutely love it. It does everything right and I've never heard a better digital front end. That said, I am also waiting for the arrival of a Wadia 270/27ix/150 combo. It is not that I am dissatisfied with the the SF stuff, I just like to hear what various equipment sounds like in my set-up. I'm curious as to whether getting rid of the preamp (BAT VK-5i) will make any improvements. I'll repost once I've done some long term listening. However, given that I'll be paying a $3.5k premium over the SF stuff on the used market, the bar is set pretty high for the Wadia. I suspect, I'll end up keeping my wonderful SF front end.
