Thanks, Mike. I remember when you had yours on the market and we spoke about them! It was not the right time then...and so the search goes on.

Fantastic news, JFrech...fantastic. I am due to hear back on some leads regarding 2nd hand TA RefMM (MM2) or Opus cables, but I think the chances are 50-50 at best. Still, sure would be fun!

JFrech - great, great feedback. Thank you. Makes a lot of sense based on my own experience with Transp Ref, RefXL and now RefMM over the last 10+ years. Perhaps will keep the lookout firmly on Opus...

Hey JFrech,Just checking in on your Opus SC after about 10-14 days...how do they compare now with your old RefMM (MM2)? If you had to score XL, RefMM, Opus...on a scale of 1-100, how would ...

W-O-W! Nice one, JFrech. I know its too early to say for sure...but how do the Opus MM2s sound? Comparisons to RefMM (MM2) or even RefXL (MM2) please!

Great stuff, JFrech. I honestly can say I can THIS CLOSE to ML2.2s a while back as Oneobgyn knows as he kindly offered me good counsel at the time. I had no opportunity to hear them and buying blin...

Hi Pradeep,That is my point exactly...it takes a LOT to go beyond the CJ power cable. I too was fortunate to get a good demo price on GAT. I also got demo pricing on the 25th but still very...

Hi Number 95 - that is consistent with my own experiences burning in...only 40 more hours to go or so to hear something hopefully a bit more stable. Good luck.

Hi Pradeep,I found very much what you have found with the GAT preamp stock cord...it is excellent. It took getting all the way up to PAD's top Ann Contego or 25th Anniversary Ltd to beat it...

Number 95...yes, it will be volatile. It goes up (and down). Try to take it easy until you have passed at least 100 hours. ;)

Hi Number 95,First of all congrats. Secondly, in terms of burn-in, I also own XL SCs and RefMM (MM2) ICs...I agree with your assessment regarding XL (MM2) vs RefMM (MM2)...I found after abo...

Cool! The Japanese often get access to the local hand-made audio equipment at prices way below the rest of the world. Kondo, Esoteric, etc. Would be curious to know what he has in his system.
