    Mike replied to a thread Why the Cloak and Dagger? in General Audio Discussion
    Exactly. To advertise and say they are made in Scotland when you KNOW they are not, is completely dishonest. Now, if they were lying to the distributor too, then that’s another story, but I doubt it. Pretty easy to tell where they are...

    Mike replied to a thread Boulder 1160 in Boulder Amplifiers
    The 1160 is a great amp. The 2160 is truly a league above and more in line with the Block. The Constellation lineup is also great. The 1160 is a little more laid back then the 2160 and a lot more laid back then say Block or Soulution. I won’t...

    Mike replied to a thread Why the Cloak and Dagger? in General Audio Discussion
    I just watched the video. Very interesting. But the video comments from former VP’s at Tannoy and new distributor are very revealing. I guess KD is no longer the distributor if I’m reading this correct? No love lost for me with him I’ll...

    Mike replied to a thread MSB Upgrade - New Reference or Used Select II in Computer/Digital Audio
    That used one is VERY old, only one power supply (not two as standard) and the old standard clock (not the much better femto 33, which even the ref has!). A ref with femto 33 will outperform this used one AND you get to take advantage of the trade...

    It’s amazing to me that people think wire is wire. The other day we set up the NEAT speakers in the back room. With the Nordost speaker cables, it was not a good match. That ribbon tweeter did not respond well. Switched to the Sigma speaker...
