I am from Singapore, the red dot!
Anyone has a view about MS-PRO with Solo SRG or RPX-33, Lehmann Linear, all SS amps?

That's not entirely true. There are plenty of SS offerings that make for wonderful mates with the Prestige/Reference series. There are also plenty of low end, cheaper hybrid options that are simply that... cheap and not complimentary at all. I guess my point is, not to cast such a wide blanket over amp type. While he did say money wasn't a real factor, I'm sure dropping the kind of coin he would have to spend to pick up a used Melos would certainly make him balk.

Read the thread, thats why I recommended the SOHAII or the LD1.

I did and the reason for my post. You honestly think the LD1 is worth taking a look at? IMO it falls under the grossly overrated, over praised, and cheap category. It does put on a good light show though.

Hi, I am been to these two places. Abit too much! Not rushing as I already have the SR-71A and Benchmark DAC1 amp. Just to see if there is a 'better' amp around for the MS-PRO. Thks.
