Thread: Dan d'agostino & focal sopra n.3

Sounds like a good match. I think I may go with the VAC 200iq when I order mine, although I'm not sure if I should go monoblock or just the stereo 200iq.

Sopra 3? I think 100w of tube power in stereo would be enough for 91.5dB efficient, 8 ohm nominal speaker.

You´re gonna open a topic for each video on you tube of an audio system?
What's the point?

I liked the Progression Integrated so I shared it to see if anyone else would contribute to the topic. Is that OK with you or do I need to get your personal permission next time?

I was very happy with D'Agostino Momentum Monos. Very rich, yet dynamic and resolving without ever sounding lean or threadbare. I think Dan builds fantastic products in his new venture/company not that some of the legendary Krell products were chopped liver either.

I will have to give the Progression line a listen Joe, I am not familiar.

While youtube in not the standard by which to judge an audio component, I still think plenty of information can be derived. They also say a picture is worth a thousands words. If that is true, what is a whole video worth?

Opening a topic just with a link, without saying anything else, is so poor, so poor...
But now I know that the intention is to comment on the amplifier and NOT the speakers ...
You might had said it right away ...

Totally agree.
But then maybe a single topic called "big systems playing well on you tube" can be opened and we feed it with the links.

as for the progression gear...it didnt impress me even though i wanted to.
s250 is great!

Your grade of "poor" on my topic opening skills of a nice integrated playing on a nice pair of speakers in an audio forum, is more of an indication of your personal mental state than my actual post. I did not break any rules or posting etiquette in my opinion. Why you even bothered to bring up a complaint is however crystal clear. I suggest you address those issues instead of passive aggressive attacks from your keyboard.

Nah...

I asked a legitimate question since it was not the first topic open like this (*) and you answered with an active aggressive attack

I am sure you agree with me that is poor but, as you say, you haven´t broken any rules so you can open all you want

And that was also a nice video of a Studer R2R. What is the point of your comments? This is an audio forum. Open your own threads with whatever description you like.

I feel so much better now that I have your permission though.
