First of would like to say a big thank you to the people that has helped me out.

However I am confused again (year does not take much).

Can someone please explain the difference between the Consatina USB and the Paradisea+ ??

When you go onto the MHdtlab website (http://www.geocities.com/mhdtlab/) it has the link for the Consatina USB (no information for the Paradisea+). However when you go to the order page, you get the Paradisea+ (and not the Consatina USB)

Now yes I know the Paradisea (no +) is on the website, however it has no USB. Looking at the specs on the order form for the Paradisea+, does have USB

Many Thanks

O3ric.

Paradesia has a tube buffer and uses a different opamp. Read this for differences.

The head of MHdt labs states this:

Paradisea is best of the best, absolutely hi-ended product (if you can find 5670 tube before 1970’s D getter), the tube equipped in auction is GE 5670 NOS tube, sadly, packed 1982, new generation tube, find WE396A or older tube to replace if you can

Renaissance II has most analog sound is designed for those ppls who suffered by digital sounding gear. The tube equipped in auction is GE 5670 NOS tube, sadly, packed 1982, new generation tube; find WE396A or older tube to replace if you can.

Constantine tends to have best resolution, most tonal balanced and a little bit lesser natural than 43’s in sound.

Dialogue II is very musical and natural sounding with best sound stage; however with lesser current and higher impedance (1.6K) so it may not be suitable for passive preamplifier or direct hook in power amplifier or direct fed into power amplifier.

USB Plus Constantine Basically isConstantine with USB input

USB Plus Dialogue II Basically is Dialogue II with USB input

Paradisea+ Paradisea with USB input


Also, it should be noted that although they are called the same thing, there are different versions of some of these, for example there was a Paradisea, and then later they changed it around a little into the current Paradisea and Paradisea+ (different components). They may have also revised their other products recently.
