I don’t think I’ll be doing any more expensive upgrades in the near future, so this isn’t really a which one to upgrade first decision; more of a which one to upgrade at all!
I’m quite tempted by the A80 amps on eBay, but will I always wonder what I’m missing out on with the A100 amps!?
Help me with amp and cable upgrade decisions!

LS6. I was particularly struck by the improved clarity of vocals, tonality and a perceived extension at both high and low frequencies.savvypaul wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 1:58 pmCN...which speaker cables were you using before TSCS?CN211276 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 1:50 pm I found that upgrading to TSCS made a huge difference to my system in all areas, even more so than upgrading to PA90 SA and Cube 1s which improved particular areas of performance. I already had TIS in place between DAC and pre amp and pre amp and A80s. This is my experience with my system. I can't say that it would be applicable to all systems.
