One of my friends has this stuff. Probably the most precise and highly detailed equipment I have every heard. Spectral and Pass Labs are on their own cloud in this respect. A little cool sounding but I guess that's an artifact of the precision. I tend to prefer warm sounding systems too. I noticed his system did not really come into it's own until he put in MIT z system and the top gun MIT cables. Exactly as noted above. The stuff is so precise that it accentuates any flaw in the chain. My pass labs equipment is definitely more forgiving - I plug that directly into the wall.
What do you guys think of Spectral?
I'm interested in getting a Spectral DMC12 and DMA90 combo. I'm driving a pair of Martin Logan Ascents. What do you think of the sound? Has anyone heard either of them together and do you think it will be too bright. And finally would do you think there is more detailed stuff out then then Spectral?
