I was drawn more to the music in your second video. I viewed it full screen and sort of felt like I was there with you. Your room looks really nice. The acoustics compliment the Harbeth's and the MC225 sound smooth as silk.

By the way, check your signature. You have the MC225 shown as a MA225.

Come on Dan... West Side Story deserves more than strippers....
But I realized that this musical choice could not be shared by many people here.

Thank you for the nice comments. You know it is just up to you to come in person !

I am looking for a second 225. I have the feeling that the very tiny differences between the single 225 and the Shindo blocks is due to power.
If the 225 keeps his magic sound while used as a mono amplifier ( this is not always the case with stereo amps as you may know ), then chances are there that the 225's may be better than the Shindo amps. At least on the Harbeths. But my guess is that if a pair of 225 sounds better than the CCQ on the Harbeths, they will sound better on any speaker.

Signature updated ! thanks !
