Tonoman,

Will get one of these when I get back :) Missing audio already a lot. Too many vinyl here but no rig to play with it. Happy New Year.

The Tono Violin is just a pre-amp. Apart from speakers and players, you'd also need a power amp.

The Tono Violin is great with minimonitors/standmounts/bookshelves in particular. They have a knack for making tiny boxes sound full and robust. When you get the sense of what you think it sounds like swap the 6SN7 tubes and it's ALMOST like changing the whole preamp.

Recommendation 1: Standmount Speakers regardless of price range wether 6k or 70k. I've heard them from B&W 302s to Spendor LS3/5as. I'm still waiting to hear them with MVA's Electa Amators or his Harbeth.

Recommendation 2: Tube or Solid State and all variations in, among and between. The sonic signature of the Violin is such that it is more compelling often times than that of the power amps connected to it. Especialy between Push Pull and Mid Quality or better Solid State.

My Violin SET :roll: up consists of

Tono Violin w/ Brimar CV1998
JE Labs 300B w/ Brimar CV1998 driving Western Electric re-issues
Von Schweikert Audio VR-1 Monitor and VR-1 Stands
