The amps are Hercules 2's and Digital section is DCS Vivaldi 2.0 in that system .cabling is all Nordost Odin. My other system still has the Centaur monblocks and ref 40 and The Vivaldi setup. The speakers have changed from the Q3's to the new M3's which are superb. I am in the process of changing my second ref40 to the Altair2 in the second system. It is so superior , there is no contest.

Jab, thanks. But no plan, and never will spend that much on preamp. No matter how good.
I think $30000-40000 is about max I will go. But nice to know that the Altair
Is as great as its price suggests.
