That is a big change - you are a brave man - congrats. What happened to the big Solutions amps? Does the kondo amp drive the Strads? Or a you going to horns? |

The Soulution amps got traded in. They were the best SS amps I have had but i always thought valve amps held the edge and I am correct so far with what I have heard. This Kondo combo was always one I wanted to have So far the Ongaku is driving the strads with surprising ease but I would like to consider the westminsters as a possibility. Avantgarde horns are a little bit extreme visually for me to contemplate right now. howie |

Like anything, variety is the spice of life and we needed to sample the others to realise what we were missing otherwise the circle would be incomplete. To be honest i would have gone for this combo last year if I wasn't so worried about tubes and kids. Now that I think they are to be trusted some more I feel more comfortable but still keep the Ongaku on the top shelf. But you're right, it's an expensive circle to complete but necessary I feel howie |

Howie .... Ever compared the Soulution to the Vitus . Would be keen to have any feedback on how the Soultion stacks up against my current Vitus pre-power combo.

I don't know if it is true but all the second hand dealers told me to avoid Vitus as it wasn't too reliable. Love the sound though. Warmer than solution. Howie |
