I had AR 18s with a Nad 3020e amp and Nad 520 CD player for 30 years very musical but imho my tannoy Mercury V1 speakers sound better

In case some of you are wondering how the richard gray creates new current it does it by passing the electricity threw a inductor . When current passes threw a inductor the inductor creates another charge at equal level as the current that went in but all the garbage that your household electricity has picked up traveling to your house is not created by the inductor . It is esentially filtered out . What the equipment recieves is electricity as clean as that which was produced . In order to handle the high current demands the inductor has to be big making the richard grey very heavy . A caracteristic of inductors is the they filter high frequencies but since the current is 110-120 there is no liability . I admit after having read that I told myself " why didn't someone think of this in the first place " .It's so freaking simple that it bypass everyone . PS Audio has a power conditioner which does basically the same but it works differently , plus it isn't passive as the richard grey products

My nice surprise was my Magneplanar speakers
They sound so different than any other speaker I've owned and I've owned a fair few over the years
For what I paid for them the Maggies were a complete bargain sound wise

ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Managed to source a Myryad Z40 Headphone amplifier last Winter. From Peter Tyson for £90. The Z40 originally cost nearly £400 back in it's prime days.
Can't fault anything for the price I've paid. The sound is fairly warm and slightly laid back. Provides enough detail for my ears. Even managed to drive the stubborn AKG K701's pretty well.
In some ways I prefer having the Z40 over the Schiit Asgard 2 & **DELETED**. Out of the trio, my ears finds the Z40 to have the least solid state sound.

I use mine with 300 ohm Senn. 650s and I'll go further than you in saying I'm amazed at how good this amp. is. Versatile, too. It is a class A design, but I certainly wouldn't call it warm; its bass is surprising too. Nice feature is the 20 min. turn to standby if no signal is detected but a caveat is that you need to remove the cans to divert the signal to the line out RCAs. One of these days I'll try it as a pre. (as it has 4 inputs). Better than my maxed out Headline, although not exactly an A-B comparison.
