You guys are way outta line. Just sayin'. I'm tired of this thread. Unsubscribed.
Mods should have kept this thread dead. So sad.
As I said the latest discussion is totally unnecessary and was only triggered by alota's quote of an relatively unimportant point in my post which shows my love to the LCD2. I pardon alota. I enjoy the LCD2 driven by my portable rig as much as people enjoy the LCD2 from the **** Lyr or B22 or Burson, so there is no point to argue here. If any one of you don't believe what my home gear is capable of with regard to the LCD2, that's fine as well. Let's continue to discuss the creaminess of the Rev 1.
I thought there might just be someone out there willing to try their beloved LCD2s on higher end stuff - and I trust that they will be amazed as much as I was when they do. If that became an offence to anyone, you have my apologies.
At the price of US$20,000 for the Esoteric K-01 and over US$4,000 including the tubes for the Leben, I think this is an understatement. As I said, let's not get into the discussion of source and amps here, but feel free to browse Skylab's list of tube amps and ask him which amp does he think is the best amp for LCD2. And what's more I heard it on the Esoteric K-01 and Accuphase C3800 flagship preamp (the preamp itself also worth more than US$20,000) combo - the preamp has a top notch directly coupled headphone out. You have to hear stuff like that before making any comment with your experience in stuff like a DIY B22 or a ****t Lyr. And yes, with my gear, I have heard the better LCD2 than most of the peeps here have.
