Billy, I am curious, my recollection from the Chicago meet was that the prototype Raptor sounded much like the Stealth. It's been awhile and it was during crowded meet conditions. I am assuming of course that you have had a chance to audition the Stealth. Thanks.

honestly its more of a side move from Ray in sound, different from the stealth. more neutral and yet way more pwer and heat.

headamp against headamp it makes the stealth look bad at even the intro price of $1500.00 (the intro price of the stealth way back when).

The stealth is a great pre-amp for speakers, but headamp wise the raptor eats it alive..imo of course

I was listening at the meet and it was pretty noisy and I felt rushed because of so many people and my own time limitations. I will have one soon enough. I think with the Dynahi and Raptor, I will have the best of both worlds.
