Momentum s250 added
Just got my momentum s250 setup and delivered and boy oh boy that sound delivers! Even better with Wilson audio Yvettes!
If only I could get that meter in the front to move without going deaf! IMG_20180328_230129.jpg

Need to get a harder to drive speaker like the original Alexia.

Meter movement is an issue, there is a switch on the back which makes it more sensitive but still doesn't make it move enough at normal listening levels.

Great amp choice!
It takes a lot to push the needles, I start seeing this at 60% volume on the mated PreAmp and song dependent, but when they do, oh my... |

Congratulations on your gorgeous new amp. And is that a Linn Klimax I see above it?
I spoke to Bill McKiegan of D’Agostino a few weeks ago about the meter, and he indicated they were working in a more sensitive meter, but of course it’s purely cosmetic. Even at very high listening levels you’re still only drawing a few watts with efficient speakers, so it’s tough getting much movement.

There is beta Linn Davaar firmware out now, being tested by Roon’s “alpha” user group.

I have become accustomed to not seeing the needles move in either my original Momentum's and now with the M400's. The lights glow nicely.
