Alexandria SoundDon't get me wrong. I too am a fan of the ARC sound. I had to install a 3rd dedicated AC for my sound room when I had the Ref 600 Mk lll's as they gave off so much heat with 31 tubes per amp. I hea... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |
Alexandria SoundThanks. I too am looking forward to finally getting themHave you had a chance to compare the ARC Ref 600 MK lll to the Lamm ML 2.1? The midrange with the Lamm leaves one breathless. The X-2... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |
Alexandria SoundI love it...beautiful set up and in Ferrari Red. I also use Valhalla speaker cable, IC's and power cords and prior to my Lamm ML 2.1's was driving my X-2's with ARC Ref 600 Mk lll's, so I can say I... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |

Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5DaveI have had the unit for a month now and feel it to be well broken in. My impression is that it is as good or better than the Meitner stack that I had in every way. As well it is a one b... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |

Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Gallant DivaI have gone back and forth so many times on the TT issue but with the speaker upgrade I am really comfortable with my decision. posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Indeed I did say that. A simple solution came along. My dealer has a pair of upgraded X-2's along with a WATCH center both in Black Almondine which I am going to buy. He is taking in trade my X-2's... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5I have gone back and forth so many times on the issue of TT that I am getting nystagmus. I have finally decided against the turntable as I am going in a different direction only because it is my an... posted about 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5BigpondI am pleased however that you made the decision on the Ref3 as it is just too good a preamp not to have in the present rather than worry about a Ref3 Mk ll version sometime in the fu... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5DgadYou have made that argument to me before. I just won't get a second set of speakers to bridge the time gap. I know the upgrade to Series ll is that good. It is also the inconvenience of... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5It is unfortunate that the X-2 series ll upgrade is not field upgradeable because of circumstances such as yours. I also am not eager to send them back and have my system down for so long. If you w... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5BigpondGreat improvement between the Ref2 Mkll and the Ref 3. I too had the former and thought it to be wonderful until I heard the latter which IMO is in a league of its own.BTW many have ... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |

Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Hi VitoI will be running it balanced to the Ref3 (same as the Meitner). Yes it does SACD. My initial observation when Andreas brought the unit over to my house to a/b vs the Meitner was tha... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Now we're talking. The sound "IS" amazing. I must admit that when Andreas brought it over to m house I was very skeptical as to how it could better the Meitner. Honestly it took only brie... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Actually you made it very clear. I was also trying to suggest that your wish list for this player is beyond your expectations...but never say never. posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5I would bet 24/192 is doable BUT seems to me you still want a universal player posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5DcstepBTW, the more I re-read your post it is apparent to me that what you want is another universal player, something that the PD-MPS-5 isn't posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |

Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5Thanks CarlIf the Brinkman proves to be above my means I do intend on auditioning Dmitri's Nottingham. He even prefers to set it up for me himself as we live so close to one another posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
Doctor's Rx-Wilson X-2, Lamm, PDS MPS5MikeYou are probably correct in that I feel the same. If I go analog and there is a strong likelihood that I will, I do not have the smarts either for setting up and would defer to the dealer. posted over 16 years ago | View comment |
