Michael : my plan is to keep both. But if I like the Shindo a lot, I may decide to sell the 2301....

Hello Shindo friends !
I'm about to order a pair of those : 4 x the fun « pitch perfect audio
Any thoughts ?
I am sorry I came late to this thread - I've been very busy with work.

It depends on how much of a gambler you are. As Matt said, it might sound wonderful, then again it might not. The impedance curve affects much more than the SPL you can achieve, it affects the tone more dramatically than anything else I can think of other than your speaker-room interaction.

I know your objective is to have a flexible system with one preamp, one set of speakers and two power amps depending on your listening mood. It's an interesting idea, but I am not sure that you'd be getting anything close to the Shindo sound/experience -- and the amp you are considering is not inexpensive.

Alberto,
Thanks for your remarks.
I consider myself a gambler on that one. We'll see !
But I will consider you personally responsible for what is going to happen :roflmao: !

The more I think about it, the more I realize that I won't be happy until I get Shindo amps in my system. I'm too curious.
The Shindo Corton Charlemagne Q monoblocks will be ordered today.
Will sell them if I don't like them.
We only live once !
Jerome, I like your style! :thumbsup: Yeah! :banana:

I remember reading somewhere, someone had bought the Shindo TT. Might as well go for the full lineage to get the right SHINDO sound - from input to output? Am I missing something here?

I had this "weird" inclination as after going thru the "mix and match" combo systems I owned before, I finally found the "Meridian sound" (as a system) is that much wholesome. Thats probably true for an entire McIntosh Reference combo too (this Ivan have to chip in). Somehow, I think voicing had to do with this - right from the creation of the gear.

I stand corrected on this thinking though. Welcome opinions on this.
Jerry, Shindo speakers are the holy Grail! :yes: The price is tough to swallow! :tears:

Thanks Serge !
I met good Masters here. You know, people who go from Krell to Mc to Lamm to Ayon to Shindo....and from SF to Wilson to Tannoy....:roflmao: :thumbsup:
Spice of the life is variety !
We only have one wife right ? We can have multiple amps !

I have never seen any retail prices for their speakers, what do they go for?
