Steve,in just the short time that i have spent with the 10A linestage i can see that you are truly gifted and that you are not afraid to think outside of the Box. i think that you should be commended for your designs.i have read your white papers and i have spoken with you at length, i like the way you think :idea:. congratulations on the 11A review.thanks....WCW III

The review put the 11A up against some pretty expensive company....and still faired extreemly well. What more could any designer ask for?

Congratulations!

Thanks guys. What is really interesting is that in the previous issue, Martin makes the comment that after he installed all 4 of the LessLoss power cords in the system he states:

"The Big Rig had become something better, more musically truthful than any system I had ever heard...anywhere...anytime."

Then the PBN arrived, and when broken in, he evidently had to re write my review to include the PBN. I think that is why the issue came late this month.

Rats, foiled again. I was hoping he would conclude the review, this is the best preamp he has ever heard. Oh well.  :rofl:


The 10A is no slouch either. It is one of only 3 preamps to make the "exceptional merit" list at Bound for Sound.
