About 3 weeks ago I replaced the V-dac's wall-wart power supply with a standalone model from Pyramid. It made a significant difference, mainly in bass drive and definition. well worth it.

Thanks for stepping in Timrhu. I enjoy the dialog. Oddly enough, for some things they do the 5.0 may have been the best speaker in their line.The 5.3 floorstanders have more midrange fullness a...

Mjcmt,Yes I am a large fan of Soliloquy speakers. I only heard the Sat5's once. They sounded pretty good, but somewhat congested when compared to the 5.0's when placed well out in a room. <...

I'm using the ATV's hard drive. I've actually returned the Dac Magic now and have a Musical Fidelity V-dac in its place. Smoother sounding. I like it quite a bit. The internal dac in the ATV is...

Timrhu,I didn't answer your question about the Monarchy amps. I do like them very much. Quite musical and with good clarity, even with the tube pre-amp. I did have their gain reduced to bet...

Hi Timrhu,I did try the (#2) Vibrapods on the Soliloquy stands, but I think I had peeled off the pads for the test. I live in Raleigh, so I got another set of stick on pads from David Berma...

I really like the Cary preamp. Stock tubes and all. After it (or the Monarchy Amps) warm up on music for awhile, the music really flows. Really good tone, good highs and good bass. Certainl...
