I have been to the mountain ....

The real attraction for the evening though was those big boy Avalons (which I'd never heard or seen) and the D'agostinos. They were beyond their reputation - the precision of the presentation, the complete and utter disappearance of the speakers, wicked control and presentation (particularly in the decay to my ear), the breadth and depth of the soundstage - it was all amazing. Buck's room is as beautiful in person as it is in the photos - I love it because it doesn't look like a sound room - it looks like a lovely place to be, and it is. We listened to a Stevie Ray Vaughn track and it was as if Stevie was on the other side of the block - not in a gimmicky way, but it a way that made you think you were in the room and there was just a wonderful deep soundstage. My only bad news for the evening is that I'll never be able to vouch for Buck with his wife when purchasing new gear. What he has sounds so good and is so well put together, he simply doesn't need anything else. |

That amp is gorgeous. What is the damping factor on them? I cannot seem to find it.
