Oh do you enjoy your Travagans more than the 650? You need to start poisoning more headfi users to move on to hifi so you can start the journey together. Makes things more interesting smile.gif Take it slow and enjoy the journey, but don't make the mistake of thinking just 'one step up,' or you'll end up buying and then wanting to change too soon, costing you more $$$ had you just taken the hit at the start.

In my honest opinion, a hybrid is a hybrid and a lady boy is a............... boy ...The HD220 is a good amplifier, but there's always a trade off. Since you're dealing with Alvin, I'm sure he'll be more than glad to let you do an A/B test to compare between the HD220 and the other AR tube amps. See which sound you prefer with what you listen mostly to (classical in this case). Buy with your ears or eyes if you're into tube p0rn smile.gif
Used Guarneris? Nice.. I've never been to Musical Image before.. I need to go one day to pay a visit and see what goodies they have.
Beauty in the eye of the beholder! Glad that he's happy and satisfied with his Guarneri setup.

Audio Image sounds more like it. I looked up Musical Image website, they sell like karaoke equipment or something.

I quite like the look of the M5s though I'll need a much bigger room before I consider speakers like Magico. Read great reviews on the Soulution, but the 700 mono blocks cost USD$115,000 + 720 preamp $40,000. Pricing a little bit too elite for me lol. Also I'm not keen to spend like 3 times the cost of my speakers on pre-amps and amplifiers

Not a SF owner, but upgraded to a proper pre amp to partner with my Class A power amp. Previously, using an int amp as pre with the power amp.

Very good improvement in every aspects. The vocal is even more airy and a bit more forward. Still very tall. The details and imaging are drool.gif Happy with my upgrade smile.gif

There is a pair of s/hand SF Guarneri Homage at Audio Image for sale. Previous owner traded it in recently for something else.

The glossy finish is really nice on the Guarneri and those matching stands are really a sight to behold. They just don't make speakers with such craftsmanship anymore.

But expect the price to be even "nicer". LOL...
