What is a difference between GEC KT-66 and Genelec KT-66 ?Are they both equally good ? 
any experience w/ Wilson & Spectral?
I have headr Wilson+Spectral combo on HE200x (do not remember exactly). It was deadly combination, I have never heard such powerful bass and dynamic. It was not musical though, I did not like it, I was deafen and shaken, it was opposite to the sub... 
Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell?

Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell?
How do you know that Odyssey are great components ? Maybe instead of keeping bunch of cables and preapms would be enough to replace Odyssey ? I believe that manufacturer did great job to find right pre, cdp and cables to present them to audience o... 
Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell?
It is common knowledge that SS have better bass, but Conrad Johnson on HE 2004 have bass equal to the best SS I have heard, with exception to Spectral (I have never heard anything like this before it was vulcanlike rumbling). But musicality of tub... 
Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell?
"don't attend too many audio shows"Why not (I have attended at least one yearly since 1997), not so many years ago I thought that I like SS that tubes are obsolete, that future is in digital amps and SACD, shows can be true ayes openers :)I only w...

What's the "worst" cdp for the money?
my Sony 9000ES, players costing 1/3 (when it was new) were more musical to me,I have heard Naim at a few occasions and must agree very uninvolving, unmusical unless playerunless you like metal, rap and similar loudly crap :) 
Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell?
I agree it is personal preference, and I do not care if amp have 1% or 0.000001% of distortion or if it have 1F capacitance or only 100.000microF, what I care if it sounds like music to me. And Odyssey did not, like so many others. Most musical am...
