Would be great to hear from someone that has compared the new subs to the Descent I's. I am using a pair of them with my clx's and to be honest they are on such a low volume that I doubt the new subs would make a big difference. M. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

So I was under the impression that arc hadn't confirmed the use of the KT150 in the Ref150 yet. How does that affect your warranty? Glad that you did the demo though, the outcome was what I thought! M. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

As Bernard mentioned above I am using the Ref150 with my clx's. I have not tried the ref75 though. In terms of performance of my amplifier, I think that it is terrific. It has plenty of punch and dynamics. My concern with the smaller amplifier would be if it had enough power to really drive...

Nordost have a flat cable too if you wanted to spend a little more. If you are putting good speakers on the rears as you suggest may be worth it. Also what cables are you using at the front? Always better to keep them the same if you can Rgds Marc. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

More changes... Have now changed from Scarlatti to the Vivaldi. Also new rack, the Stillpoints grid rack. Will post photos in a few weeks since having room redecorated too. Should be pretty cool when completed. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4

Bonzo, let's chat when I am back from my business trip on Friday. I have direct experience of all of your above questions! Rgds Marc. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4

Hi Bonzo, So I am just outside London so would be great to meet up. Currently I am having my room redecorated so system is out of action, however as soon as it is up and running let's set up a date. Please PM me your contact details. BTw are you going to any of the two Hifi shows that are...

Hi Bonzo, out of interest where are you in the UK? The arc will give you more realism and smoother sounds whereas the krell is more about power and impact. My view is that I prefer the arc type of soundstage it is more realistic and easy to listen to for long period of time. The krell (which I...

Thank you for your kind comments and Tom's details. I have just sent him an email Rgds Marc.

Could a moderator update the title of my thread to 'CLX and Pair of Descent I's' Thx Marc. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Agreed. It is all about consistency throughout the chain for me! The other point I would make is that I now listen to a much broader range of music than before. Basically anything that is well recorded is enjoyed :) M.

Thank you all for your kind comments. The level of performance really is special, it frequently gives you goose bumps in how real the sound is. One think which I would say after spending a lot of time and effort in getting the system to where it is now, is that having a consistent standard...

Hi Bernard, I think you are right! Let me get on this... Lots of changes to report. M. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Hi, Yes very similar system. Although I have recently changed my front end from the cd8 to the Dcs Scarlatti. A very significant improvement. The Ref 150 is an amazing amplifier. I use it on the 4 taps. The transparent audio cables are superb, although very expensive. Btw what speakers...

I would second Sonos. Excellent for what it costs. M. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Thank you for your comments. I think the Ref150 is an absolutely amazing amplifier. It has plenty of power to drive my Clx's and has never been found wanting. I would go as far as saying that it is the best amplifier I have heard at that price range by a long way. I am interested to see what...
