I am happy to report that I have a pair of Progression monoblocks on order in black. I believe the combo of the ARC Ref 10 and the D'Agostino Progression will work great with my speakers. I currently have a pair of ARC Ref 250 SE monoblocks on loan. Pretty sweet sounding combo. I just can't live with tube amps and replacing the tubes in them.
 
Vern - Did you try the Dags Progression pre amp or were you wedded to your ARC 10? Amazing system either way.

No I didn't listen to the D'Agostino preamp. I am indeed "wed" to the Ref 10, as It is still brand new with 240 hours on it so far! I made this decision from when I still owned my Ref 5SE and had on loan for two days the Momentum monoblocks. That combo sounded fantastic. The Progression monoblocks are brand new so no ability to hear them before purchasing.
 
Congrats Vern! I look forward to your impressions.

Thank you Mike. This afternoon my dealer dropped off the amps, and I am now listening to them as they begin the break in process. The first hour they sounded pretty "plain". I listened again 2 hours later and it sounded a bit more cohesive and less hi-fi. Tonight I will sit down and really enjoy this! :yahoo1:

Nice pairing, and your running Transparent throughout?

Thank you UltraFast69. Yes I am using Transparent cable throughout my system. This is the first time I ever used one company solely for cable! In the past, I have done what most of us do and that is to mix and match cables. I am waiting for two power cords to return from Transparent. They are being changed from 15 amp to 20 amp to use on the new monoblocks.
 
Very fine stuff......they are even more impressive in person.....a real man's amp!
 
Congratulations with the new Amplifiers, they look really good as well as your speakers. Much be really impressive to sit down and liste to such a fine system. :)

Thank you for the compliment. It is now a pleasure to sit down and listen to music. Some older disc that sounded okay before sound much better than I ever thought they ever could. The combination of so much power and three dimensional soundstage presentation is amazing!
