Nice bro... set na set ka na... Sleepless nights yan.. pero ilang tulog na lang and youre in Stereo Heaven... Gawa ka na nang Gallery mo pag dumating para documented... 10 years from now pwede mo balikan kung san nagsimula ang lahat he he he PSB + NAD ROCKS BIGTIME....
I concur, PSB really shines with the NAD got chance to audition the NAD + PSB B6 last week in Festival Hi-Fi Lounge and they sound great for me..compare ko rin sya sa B&W 685 with NAD the PSB B6 sounds better with the NAD but still YMMV.  ;)

oh btw the Omega + NAD amp is a killer IMO, its incomparable daw sabi ng staff ng Hi-Fi Lounge since malaki difference nila sa size ng driver.. :)

Ah yun pala tawag dun sir. I guess thats what happens when the market let consumers cherry pick their amps,source and speakers. I actually listened to a podcast interview of mr. paul barton himself saying that its very silly that we pick our own components based on our tastes.

may nakita din ako dati sa youtube isang big time producer na pinakingan yung vinyl version of his work. his reaction was leaning towards being dismayed and said that was not the way he meant it to be heard. i wish i could remember his name or even the link. it was an audio expo in the US much like what we had here in Dusit.

I don't see this practice as wrong -- it's like judging something by flavor or visual appeal. In such a case, the purchase was not based on the quality of the sonic reproduction but based on the palatability of the rendition. It's often what people do to build an enjoyable "music system." However, I belong to the group that do not consider wildly colored systems as "high fidelity."

Hmm, Ivan, I may be flattening my round earth a bit more as I've recently replaced the Rega Apollo (which you heard before but with the Denon-Emotiva only) and partnered the Nad M3 and PSB Imagine T2 with a Cayin CD player!  ;D ;D

Alright, I guess one thing's for sure. Mr. Barton is a round-earther. Just hearing him talk all about psycho-acoustics and his design philosophies makes me interested in his powered speakers. Check out the new PSB Alpha PS1.

http://www.psbspeakers.com/products/alpha/Alpha-PS1-Powered-Speaker

When I started this hobby almost more than a year ago my personal goal was to hear what the artists wanted me to hear. Its a good thing I am introduced these 2 camps, at least I know what to look out for.

Those PS1s are interesting. Looks like it's as small as the image b4 but has the finish of an imagine mini. Anong amp pala sir ang binabalak niyo ipalit dun sa rotel?

I agree. If I need PC speakers this would be on my shortlist. Magkano kaya and will the local distro bring it in?

Sa totoo lang di ko pa alam. Naghahanap ako ng Musical Fidelity A308 na used, although I might have a go sa A300 in the market right now pag nangati talaga at kinulang sa budget. :D Thinking of getting a NAD din sana lang may lumitaw ulit na Masters series sa MP na used para tipid.

Yes it is, Ivan. More detailed, considering the Apollo to me sounded detailed already. Overall more involving and musical with the Cayin CD17. Especially the strings, and the piano sounded more realistic, voices sounded more palpable and present, highs sparkling. Bass though with the Apollo seemed a bit tighter.

Actually what spurred the change is when I changed the Rotel 971 CDP in the living room to Cayin Cd50 to match the Primaluna Prologue 2 and SF pre-Home Concertinos. Strangely, I noticed that, while the  NAD-PSB-Rega Apollo (and DAC) in the HT room definitely sounded better, I found myself wanting to listen more to the setup in the sala. So I home auditioned the higher end Cayin CDP and liked what I heard.

It looks like it's competing with the Focal XS Book and the B&W MM-1. :)

Awesome! I'm glad that you found a good pairing for your T2s. :) I hope you give us a chance to hear those next time. :)

Mahirap na magkasama tayo, iba maoaudition natin ng di oras, baka mapunta tayo sa cubao area ;) tsaka may phono stage na ba yung M3 para sa iyong vinyl collection? O0

I just read the stereophile's review of the m3. Its power is impressive, it was reported that it can easily power those massive wilson audio maxx2 towers.

Yup bro... maganda talaga yung M3.. Dual Mono configuration ... panalo talaga.... Sana may magpakawala ulit dito sa MP... Kaso sa mga sinasabi nating ito walang magpapakawala nyan...

Dapat ganito

PANGIT ANG NAD M3... Kaya kung ako sa inyo.. Benta nyo na yan hi hi hi

Sure, bros, schedule lang natin. Medyo toxic this season pero baka maisingit one weekend, if not after the holidays!  :)

Matagal ko ring plano mapakinggan yung analytical setup mo, Ivan. Curious ako how the Imagines can sound on a setup that leaning towards cool instead of warm.  ;D

Oo nga, local PSB prices prices are actually very attractive. Ok na ok ang PS1 at that range, compared with the Focals especially.

Wala pa atang phono stage, pero okay lang, ayoko ma-tempt mag vinyl! hehe

Actually malapit lapit lang ang Cubao, kaya pwedeng two birds with one stone!  ;D ;D ;D

Pangit talaga ...dahil silver! Mas gusto ko black. Pero madilim naman sa room at pwedeng pumikit!!! ;D ;D ;D
