I'd be interested in the differences in how SS was made then vs. now. I've had a lot of SS over the years - Krell, MF, Marantz and it was all harsh sounding to one degree or another with the SB and TP (and all digital sources for that matter). Finally bought McIntosh for one system and put a Cary 120s Tube amp on the other with each slim device. Both systems sound very good now. I suspect SS was better made in the 70s because circuits weren't so integrated. -- wireless200 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wireless200's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11887 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58618 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
