Tact Pre Amps
The Tact is not a easy to use gear if you want to get a good result... you will need to spend a lot of time to find the best settings.Also the analog I/O are definitely bad, forget them if you want to get a good treble.I think the 2.2X is better a... 
KT88 recom. for quicksilver mini mono's
Jax2 : well with your personal standard i could take a pen and write "Genelex" on any KT88.The fact is that there's very few chances that those tubes will sound like a Genelex :) 
KT88 recom. for quicksilver mini mono's
Jax2 : putting the KR brand on a Tesla tube is not what i call making a tube.KR rebranded some KT88 but never did one.

Warrenh : i don't think KR ever made a KT88. 
Neotech UPOCC Silver Interconnects vs AZen
I think Ecosse, Neotech, Harmonic Tech, Luminous, Acoustic Zen and a few other ask WangLung in Taiwan to produce their cables.Sometimes only the jacket is different (and the price ...) 
Power Amp for Hyperion 938
Krzycho : the 938 are very sensible to speaker cables.To get something good you need the good cables, i used to run my 938 in a small room with no problem at all. 
Power Amp for Hyperion 938
You should try the CI or the Nuforce amps, they both works great with the 938.You should also change your speaker cable imho, the Au24 as interconnects are ok (the highs are just a bit rolled off) but the speaker cable does not match the 938 in th... 
Esoteric DV-50S vs. UX-3SE Audio/Video quality
I replaced my DV50S with a UX3SE.The UX3SE video is much better than the DV50, same for the sound : the DV50 was already very good but a bit on the dark and full side, the UX3SE got more details, is more dynamic, faster and more transparent.I thin... 
Supratek preamp vs Lamm LL2 ???
"In our system, the Lamm rendered the Modwright (an upgraded one, at that) unlistenable."I heard both and bought the ModWright.

Verity Parsifals to Von schweikert VR4 Gen III ??
Maybe you could listen to a few amps before swapping speakers.I owned a GamuT D200 too : it's not the better component i bought. 
Future of analog controlled class 'D' amps?
"Since it is not a mature technology yet, price/performance curves *do* suggest that class D will be challenging the current art. But not today."The Nuforce Ref 9 is the best amp i owned, and i owned a few from Pass, GamuT, Krell, Conrad Johnson, ... 
Is the Reimyo CDP777 Being Discontinued?
I heard the same thing from the European distributor, the CDP777 will be discontinued very soon. 
Cable isolators ???
I also use cables isolators on my system, i bought them because i did not wanted to let my expensive cables on the floor.The sonic improvement is totally non existent to my ears. 
Verity Audio
I bought a used pair of Tamino 3 years ago.I think they are really overpriced, you can get much better performances with cheaper speakers.A Hyperion 938 for exemple is way better and you can buy 2 pairs for the price of 1 Tamino.It's also very har...
