Description

My system goal was to enable the sound to be warm and neutral with enough power to play the music clearly at ALL volume levels. The tube phono stage gives the warmth that the SS amp and pre-amp need for the TT source. The Wavestream phono stage is VERY stable and integrates extremely well with the Boulder equipment. The Rockports can handle ANYTHING the amp can give it and more. With 91db sensitivity and capable of 112db max. Oh Baby!!!!

Hai spiegs im surprised to see a scoutmaster (a super version actually) keeping up in such a beautifull system , my next upgrade will be a turntable i dont know which one yet though .
I read you like to turn up the volume and still want a crisp and pure/clear sound which is also what i like and what is high end sound to me actually .
Interesting phonostage by the way .
