Thanks so much Ozy,
No more bass problem. I swap power cords and I get the right bass. Sound of 900.901 was so good that I don't care to listen to anything else anymore. Problem is that Esoteric dealer convinced me to wait until next month, they will send 02 to my home to listen.
I also get an incredible offer on Burmester 111 too.
During listening, I use Transparent PLMM2 with 900 and AQ NRG100 with DAC, this set up was much more better than using AQ WEL on both. WEL on both made very bright and glassy sound with light bass. So, I moved WEL to connect power amps instead.
Now I really like sound of 900/901, but same complaints remains, very uselessly small display, no sampling rate displayed, and display that cannot be dimmed.
Chance is that I will get 900.901 if it not cost a lot more than Esoteric 02. If it cost a lot more but sound a bit better, then I might go with Esoteric to save $$$.
I glad to know that you also heard 02 before you purchase 900/901, that assure me that my ears are quite ok that I like 900/901 so much as well.
Now my pre amp is ARC Ref40 and Moon's powerful W7M as power amp. Dealer
convince me to buy 900/901 together with C3800 and new 200w class A amps coming soon. What do you think ? I am sure C3800 will be great, but I am also sure that
Ref40 is just as great too. However, I am interested in new amps which will be coming in August 2012.
Toga
P.S. I love your system.. and listening room too.
