    3100HV Series

    Hi Folks, Just received my MP3100HV and PA3100HV. So far, liking them very much. Built like tanks and crated equally well. I'll post more after 50 hours or so...

    Great gear. Let us know more when it breaks in. By the way, I saw your signature and I also use a Furutech E-TP609 NCF version. Killer piece.

    Re: 3100HV Series

    Yes Everest, I'm doing everything Furutech NCF. I bought the E-TP609with NCF out of Canada,it was available there first. Have you noticed Audience is using NCF on their $5K power cord? Spectacular results. Great bang for the buck. As far as the T+A gear goes, I may need an advanced degree from M.I.T. to use the FD-100 remote... lol

    Beautiful pieces that garner the highest praise in all audio magazines that have tested them.
    I've heard the HV series on various occasions and I love them.

    I hadn't noticed that Audience is using NCF on their top cord. They certainly aren't the only one. On everything power related in my system, I'm using Furutech NCF products. For signal cables, I'm using all GutWire.

    As far as T+A goes, we're a small dealer in a very small market in Canada. So, the highest T+A we carry is the R series. I'm currently using the PA 2500 R integrated amp. Considering the quality of this piece, I can only imagine the PA 3100 HV is absolutely outstanding!

    Re: 3100HV Series

    Enjoying the gear very much. My only gripe is the FD100 remote is difficult. I'm trying to set up Tidal and it won't let me do it. It "sticks". Very challenging. Not very user friendly.. Additionally, The 2 pieces are connected and 50% of the time they don't power up or down together...

    You should contact T+A about issues you're having as from my experience they're very courteous and willing to help.

    Very nice. Probably my all around favorite of the many set ups I've owned. Love the Music Player source as I figure out all the options, slowly. Certainly worth a listen if you're in the market.... or not!

    Glad to hear!
    Are you considering the power supply also?

    Penthouse-D,

    So pleased to hear that you are enjoying your T+A system. Would be interested to hear what other systems you tried and what tipped the scales in favour of T+A. Unfortunately T+A don’t seem to have a dealer in Singapore (or even Asia). I suppose on the upside it means one less variable for me to consider!

    T+A does have a dealer in Singapore.

    Its Clarity AV:

    Coleman Street #03-36
    The Adelphi
    T: (65) 6333 0010

    Ask for Ben and let him know that Nicholas suggested that you contact him.

    Have heard the MP3100 HV, P3000 HV, A3000 HV & PS3000 HV combo there with the T+A Solitaire CWT (not sure whether it was the 1000 or 2000 model) electrostatic hybrid speakers.

    They also have PA3100 HV.

    Quite helpful and accommodating bunch of people.

    Re: 3100HV Series

    Hello Andrew, Let's start at the beginning. McIntosh, Pass Labs, Vitus, Spectral, Rogers Hi Fidelity( loved the ehf200-mk2), Vitus again, T+A. Certain systems had strengths, such as the Rogers class A tube sweetness and tremendous power for an integrated tube amp, and the Vitus Class A sweetness of the SIA-025. The T+A has great imaging , unlimited power (without the additional power supply), great build quality, and last but sort of least, it looks pretty nice. I really enjoy the internet radio,and the CD player of the MP3100HV. I'm struggling a bit getting the Tidal to work, but I'll get back to you when I do. The 2 box complete system serves my needs quite well. I don't think there is a "perfect system",but I really like this set up in the "all-around " category...
