Thanks Glenhifi! I definitely enjoy the escape it brings. The Vons just do so much right and almost nothing wrong. He's my favorite speaker designer.

I can't say enough about the Melos. I absolutely love it for the price. It's a nice preamp to boot.

Owner
Oh that's right.

I actually would prefer the Aleph from a pure sound quality standpoint anyway. The F1 is the best for dynamics and controll though.

Sorry for the mistake.

What preamp are you using?

Owner
Hey JPak! You would know considering you have the F1 (the best amp I've heard for the K-1000s) driving them ;)

ha ha Dewald. I was going to say done for now becuase I am happy with the setup, but I knew as soon as I did I'd upgrade something.
