my system consists of components from brand not very well known outside of Korea.
CD player, pre amplifier and mono block amp are by April Music.
I have used number of components such as BAT, conrad johnson, pathos, linn, krell and antique sounds...But finally settled with April Music. They are very reasonably priced and they sound fantastic with FS 78.
I wish to upgrade my M200 to another April Music mono block.
Any and all comments are welcome, especially on Focus Audio FS 78... Thank you...
