AV Alliance - Dealer in the UK any experience?
They are fraudulent. I was scammed out of nearly $10k US. They took my money and ran, no goods, no refund, no nothing. Shame on me for falling for it but they seemed legit on Reverb.com and Website looked professional 
Douk Audio. Any experience with any of their products?
I bought their Dartzeel NHB-108 Clone. It's nothing short of amazing, by FAR the very best amplifier I've every owned ( and I've had Krell, Spectral, MBL etc, etc). The build quality is extraordinary. They also shipped super fast too. Couldn't be ... 
Wilson Audio paint problems
So, AT LAST, someone has been brave enough to come out and say it. Judging by the number of photos of Wilson products that have appeared on Audiogon in the past which point out 'slight nick here', 'chip there' and my own experience with Watt/Puppy... 
KRELL SACD STANDARD problem-power off
I had EXACTLY the same problem with a Krell KPS-28c CD player. It was returned to KRELL and they fixed it by replacing the power supply. They said they don't know why it happens (!) but changing the power supply often fixes it. Obviously they have... 
Spectron Mk II, is it really that good.
I owned the Spectron Musician III Signature Edition which replaced a Spectral DMA-150 Series II. Whilst I was initially happy, I found that with long term use for several hours a day I came to recognize a distortion which I can only describe as bl... 
MBL: single 9008A to drive 101e - bad idea?
I have the MBL 101Ds and a pair of 9008A amps along with the 6010D pre-amp. My speakers are very similar to those you are contemplating buying so hopefully my experience will translate. If I were you I would buy the 101Es. You REALLY need the mid/... 
MBL 9008A vs. Krell Evo 600- Better or different?
Hi Nickt,I haven't heard the new Krells but I did own the Krell FPB200c before upgrading to the Spectral DMA-150 series II, then Spectron Musician III Signature Edition and just this week to the MBL 9008As. I can state without a shadow of a doubt ... 
Spectron Musician trun on noise / tweeter hiss
I have the Spectron Muscian III SE. On turn on there is a momentary crackle. nearly inaudible but its there. The same is not true of turn off, just silent. I have absolutely no hiss, even with my ear right up to the tweeter its dead silent. Try di... 
Spectral Equipment Matching w/ Speakers and Amps
I have the amp and preamp you are auditioning and have used them with Martin Logan Prodigies, Wilson Watt/Puppies and now MBL 101s. I've been very happy with each combination and really didn't have any matching problems. The DMA-150 series II is a... 
Spectral DMA 360 hum
Me too. I had to use a cheater plug on my Spectral DMA-150. Now, anybody know where you can get a cheater plug that doesn't look like it came in an xmas cracker? 
Problems with shipping to Canada
Yes, I filed a dispute with Audiogon and they suspended the members account and encouraged me to leave negative feedback, which I have. I was a bit annoyed at FEDEX for not making this clear when I shipped although I do understand and sympathize w... 
any experience w/ Wilson & Spectral?
I'm using Wilson Watt Puppy 7s. I just moved from all Krell electronics (KP28c, KCT & FPB-200c) to Spectral DMA150 series II amp and DMC-30R pre-amp. Previously I owned the Martin Logan Prodigies. When I changed to the Wilsons I was very happy... 
Best matching amp for Wilson W/P6, any sudgestions
I just replaced Krell FPB200-C/KCT with Spectral DMA-150 series II amp and DMC-30 preamp. I'm using W/P 7.0s. The difference is truly amazing. IMHO, the Spectral gear is in a totally different league to the Krell 
Does Krell mcx series matches Martin Logan Prodigy
I'm using a krell FPB-200c with Prodigies and the results are fantastic, best sound I've heard, anywhere! 
Krell FPB 200c lack of Power?
I have a FPB-200c and have previously owned and used a KRC-3 with it. The 200c is hugely powerful, it drives my ML Prodigies to tremendous volumes without any effort at all. I never needed to have my KRC-3 turned past 9 or 10, Are you sure that yo...
