>>>They do vinyl extremely well>>>

Oh yeah! I just replaced my Monster POS interconnect with Cardas XLR to tie my P-5x into the AX-7. I spun Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms" for the first time in many years and now I'm gonna have to rethink my opinion that my digital and vinyl sound more the same than different. Wow!

>>>I drive mine with Ayre seperates, so that would be an obvious upgrade path for you later.>>>

Yeah, I'm saving my pennies for MX-Rs! I wish. No, I'm really, really happy with my system right now. Sure I could do better, but I'm thinking to spend more money on the software side for a while.

Speaking of MX-Rs, I recall when Fremer reviewed an NAD integrated recently, he stated that he'd rather have a $3K integrated driving his MAXX2s than $40K of electronics driving a $3K speaker system. Well, I haven't heard the MAXXs but I have heard the WP7, and I'm thinking a pair of MX-Rs driving the Sig IIs would stack up quite nicely against the NAD/MAXX2s.

I agree totally, but I would not use the word "critical". - M3 lover 14:59:46 08/26/07 (1)

Yep. I think we can all agree that you shouldn't use a VW bug to haul timber cross country! (nt) - DeeCee 08:00:11 08/27/07 (0)
