Default So this is where all the action is!

I was wondering where all the Shindo banter has gone...glad I found this. Lots of the usual suspects as well.

Hi guys,

Having found no chronological information about Shindo gears over time, I suggest you start by trying to classify the preamplifiers, year of release, tubes etc.
If someone could open a specific topic, could do the same for amps, speakers etc....

Recent equipment:

Petrus
Giscours
Vosne Romanee
Masseto
Allegro limited edition
Monbrison MK3 (window)
Aurieges MM, Aurieges-L, Auriege-Phono

Former equipment:

Petrus ("Peter" dual mono)
Giscours
Monbrison MK1, MK2 (EF86)
Catherine (dual mono)
Model 343, Claret...
Allegro, Allegro 604S, Allegro (dual mono)
Model 454, Mazeris Bellevus
Model 77

Partager ?
Montrose ?
Elegante ?

RA 1474 (precursor of Giscours)
RA 1561 (precursor of Catherine)
RA 1857

Thanks, regards

Btw, there is a new Haut-Brion amplifier out. It is a different circuit than the previous Haut-Brion. I have heard it in comparison to the old one and it sound fantastic.
Hi Plink

Obviously there are some notable differences between the versions, but the idea was rather to start focusing on the preamps, then perhaps the amplifiers and so on ...
I do not think it has already been done.

This is my first post here...and I don't have a single Shindo component! So what am I doing here??

Well...I'm running a pair of Verity Parsifal speakers that I love (hardly your usual Shindo-matched speakers) and am in the process of auditioning my first tube separates, having been happily living with an Ayre integrated amp for a while.

Given that my speakers aren't an easy enough load for a Montille (or other low watt amps), but given that they're not a super-hard load either, my plan for the moment is to go with either an Aurieges or Monbrison, with a VTL ST150 or pair of MB125's as the power amp. This would be my leap into high-end (at least to me!) tube pre&amp setup to bring out the harmonic complexity that my speakers are capable of, without losing on the dynamics & bass control needed to keep them happy in the 20 cycle range.

Am I crazy, or am I headed for bliss?
