Hello all,While I still love my Gallos I got the itch... What I'm after (in the order of priorities):
- High efficiency (over 95, nice impedance curve, etc.). 45/2A3 powered SET territory (currently eyeing the Paramour II or Welborne DRD 45 or 300B).
- Better bass. And I don't mean only bigger. One of the weaker points of the Gallos..
- Same (or better): excelent detail, highs, imaging/soundstage, dynamics.
- Same price range (< 3k)What I am currently looking at is the Bastanis Prometheus MkII but a first listening didn't convince me. Now I'm currently building a BLH for a Fostex 4 incher but...well, not same league.
Any hints/suggestions (ppl with extensive exposure to Gallos / prior owners. Thanks)
Florian
