    Re: Vitus and audiophile fuse

    I now use a SR Master fuse in my SIA-025 Mk2, coming from a Purple fuse the difference is substantial.
    With this level of gear it’s really worth it.

    Re: What speakers work well with an SIA-025?

    Forgot to report back.
    I ended up purchasing the SIA-025 MK2 after auditioning it in my system against my ex Diablo 300, Audio Analogue Absolute and even Audionet Humboldt.
    I much prefer the Vitus...
  3. Sticky: Poll: Re: What type of amps do you use? Tube? Solid State? Both? Hybrid?

    For my speakers definitely Class A SS works best.

    I'm also looking at Pass monos for My Thiel CS 3.7s as potential upgrade, probably XA160.8 would be powerful enough ?
    Regarding preamps which would be the best match between the VAC Master and the...

    Re: Vitus SS-103 or SM-011?

    DSP 4.1 delivers way more current to your amp than most cables out there.
    Sound is very engaging, full body, organic and yet more transparent than my ex Firebird.
    Bass is insanely good, it puts to...

    Re: Vitus SS-103 or SM-011?

    Ok guys guess what, huge change in my system since I replaced my 2 Audioquest Firebird PCs for 2 Furutech DSP 4.1 with FI50 plugs.
    My SIA-025 is now in another league, it even outperformed the...

    Re: Vitus SS-103 or SM-011?

    No they don’t at low volume no magic, not enough current IMO.
    The only amp that i home demoed and where the magic happened at low volume is the Audionet Humboldt so far.
    I wonder how the Vitus...

    I've recently demoed Tiglon PCs, very liquid sounding.

    Re: Aavik Acoustics 880 Series

    I've demoed the Humboldt in my system but i'm not sure the I-880 can beat it.
    The only way to know is to have a home demo.

    Anyone heard the I-880 yet ?
    I haven't found a dealer that's willing to bring it in so far.

    Re: Audionet STERN & HEISENBERG

    Yes i am for now but for my speakers i will need to go monoblocks at some point when funds permit.
    The difference between Mk1 and Mk2 is only 50w class A/B more for the Mk2 version if i recall.

    Wow that's amazing, keep us posted when you get your Nagra HD pre.
    Stern- Heinsenberg is my next step in my journey but why not with another pre.

    Re: Vitus SS-103 or SM-011?

    I plan on keeping the SIA-025 several years by itself and add Vitus stereo or monos latter on as an upgrade.

    Re: Vitus SS-103 or SM-011?

    Thanks, so do you think the SS-103 would be a better match paired with the SIA-025 ?
    I've been told the preamp of the SIA-025 is very good and therefore can be used with one of Vitus power amps and...

    Re: What speakers work well with an SIA-025?

    Don't be fooled by the modest 25w of the SIA-025, it has a lot of current exactly what Thiel speakers need.
    My room is medium size and i don't listen very loud.

    The only problem i have is like imprezap2 said going from a Diablo 300 to a Luxman 595 might be a side move instead of an upgrade or significant improvement.

  25. Re: Luxman L-595A Special Edition finally arrives !!!

    You said it my Diablo 300 is too brute for my Thiels, i need a much more refined amp with a lot of soul.
    Musicality and class A is what Thiel speakers need to sing.
    I mostly listen to Blues, Jazz...
