I think the trade-in deal is fair enough and a trouble free way to move into the newer design. anxious to hear what EJ has done.
Seems the Statement is on hold until sometime next year.
In my vacation home I have another system using a Marantz receiver. Not thrilled with the sound. Thinking of using the pre out into a multi channel W4S amp but would prefer a multi channel using the R design.
Looks like you let your Goldmund go in favor or the Wyred? Interesting.
Hope your system is still pleasing you. You've made a lot of effort to obtain the right synergy.

Hey there,

Yea the Goldmund went a long while back. Good amplifier but, being that I am just rebuilding, I can't keep everything. Wish I could ...

I used the Wyred amplifier for a while and then I went on to the SST. The Son Of Ampzilla is one heck of an amplifier! Very open and smooth with all kinds of reserve power. And again, EJ and crew build it in their California facility and back it with a five year warranty!
