For the enjoyment of music. Lot's of changes over the years. I typically won't buy something unless I can listen to it in my system. Spending a lot of time recently searching out well recorded and interesting music via hi res downloads. I have a really nice vinyl collection mostly Jazz and pop. Digital I'm filling out my classical titles and more modern recordings. Jan '16
A seriously great preamp...one of the best...if you're reading this...contact me...this is that good..

you have a very nice system, I would like to make a suggestion. I used to use the Transparent Reference with XL speaker cable and the Ref for the digital. I also used and still use the Transparent XL (30ft) between my DAC/Preamp to the amp. I suggest you try the HMS Grand Finle cable. I am not going to say anything, just give them a try. Christian, will send you cables for you to try for 30 days. Let me know what you think if you decide to do so.
