No, I have not done a blindfolded back to back. Life is too short for worrying about that.
I like it. I am happy….
Onwards and onward….
Good you are not just trying zillionth degree purity copper bollocks and have gone for something a little more interesting. I liked a bit of silver in some of my cables and some of the worlds top amplifiers and hifi gear use it in their construction.
If it sounds good to you that is all that matters.
Over the weekend, I came to the realisation that I have not tried my Cyrus CLS70 speakers with my Mod 686 amp.
I think I should give them a try, as it could be quite interesting.
If they don’t sound any better, then it may be time to sell the. Grus, as they are currently sat in their box.
And today I replaced my Mark Grant DSP mains cable with a Neotech OCC combination (plugs and cable).
This has go e on my BB3, so time will tell if I hear any difference.
And today, I fancied a change, so have fitted my Firebottle Kin preamplifier back into my system, replacing the Topping Pre90.
Half tempted to try the FH3s as well.
What else is there to do on a rainy Sunday?
I really should try and sell some of my old speakers. Having two spare sets is a bit much, and I can’t see any of my old speakers displacing the Traingles.
It has been an enjoyable day spinning vinyl, through the BB3, into the Kin.
It has a nice relaxed sound to the system with the Kin in place. Just right for a cold and wet day.
So is the BB3 much better than the KIN phono stage?Quote:

Alan has told me it the past that it is though.
I heard the KIN back at my house a few years back when we had a bake of against my Croft 25R.:)
