Joe, I'm sure that Mr. Von Schweikert is well aware of how good his speakers are. The man has a good ear as well as a good knowledge of how speakers work. He also knows how important wires and ...

Joe, I'm glad to see that you've found an improvement by upgrading some cabling. I just checked the Von Schweigert web site and I don't see where they have cables. Could you share the model...

I'm curious what value Mundorf S/O you put on your Reference 3a Decapo tweeter. I have an older pair of Dulcet that I sent the woofers back for an upgrade. With this upgrade, they suggested that I ...

Have you experimented with and without the PS Audio conditioner in the system? Maybe try the amp plugged directly into the wall outlet and the sources into the conditioner.

I see you use the AZ Satori. Excellent choice, but isn't the Satori a single cable? Are you using the standard jumpers from bass connections to tweeter connections?

You'll need to either contact a Ref 3a dealer or Diane at Divergent Technology as there are quite a few updates, depending on the age of your Dulcet. Prices are variable.

You didn't mention what speaker cables you are using, but since I also have the Dulcet speakers, after much experimentation, I have found that bi-wiring works best on them.

Hi Howard, How are those Dream speaker cables working out in your system? Has the extra time of break-in helped the bass to come through better?

Hello Fplanner2010. Could you tell me what power tubes VAC uses in their Phi 300.1 amps? I'm going to guess that they are cherry-picked Shuguang KT88, but when you look closely at the tubes do they...

I'm curious if you compared your Flavor 4 power cords both with and without the micro-bearing. I'd like to hear your comparative notes of each.

Keep us posted. I'll bet that you'll be very happy with the monoblock arrangement. VAC makes wonderful products. Also, I'm anxious to read your comments on the Powercell vs. BPT comparison.
