richard gray 400s power delivery system - RM1,800 (New RM2,800)

leslie's comments:

there's a lot of misundertanding about richard gray being an active component in the circuit which invariably means adding its own sonic signature and adding compression. fact is, richard gray is a parallel device and it does no harm to the sound. i am using model 600s myself. the results are blacker black, crystalline highs, better separation, more air, more layered soundstage, tighter bass.

this unit is a mint unit with low usage.

leslie's comments:

stage III cables is the biggest discovery in my last 15 years in audio. a cottage industry cable maker based in NYC, USA, stage III produces one of the best silver cables in the market. amongst its greatest virtues are shimmering highs, textured mids and a very tight and tactile lows. It is unlike any silver cables you'd listened in the past which tend to be thin and shrilly and devoid of emotions. i am using higher models of stage III i/c in my systems with great success.
