The last 24 hours since an Audiogon-sourced Calypso arrived have been among a handful of peak experiences I've had that make this hobby so persistent and irresistible for me. I regularly tell my family that I love my stereo and never get bored of listening. But this upgrade is so good, so comprehensive and overwhelming that I can hardly believe it. My old preamp was holding me back without my realizing it. Suddenly my Magicos are imaging 100% better and the soundstage is huge and well defined. It sounds more musical and more detailed. Even my wife is gushing.
Paul McGowan of PS Audio emphatically praised the Aesthetix Calypso in his blog and I've wanted one ever since. This one came with some sweet NOS Amperex "Bugle Boy" 12AX7 tubes. For now I have no idea the extent of their contribution because they are all I have. Anyway, I'm ready for two more weeks of social distancing. As long as I have Tidal (and maybe some toilet paper), I'm all good!
