... or a cathouse in Nevada.

Actually it's probably not my place to divulge this but Klaus was generously offering his favorite customers a chance to win a pair of Kismet Liquids, free to the first customer to correctly guess a number between 7 and 9. Apparently, my guess of 12 was the closest of all entries submitted by the AC Odyssey faithful so the Liquids are mine! My condolences to the unlucky other contest players. (Phil A, really? You guessed 42? Really?? 42??)

It's not my fault - I just couldn't understand Klaus' accent.  I was born in a foreign country too - Brooklyn, NY :lol:

  Excellence is as excellence does. Kudos my friend. Very much deserved. For those who own Stratos amps pat yourself on the shoulder for having Golden ears.

Glad to see you receive some much deserved recognition. I'm surprised Odyssey has not received an award for the Cyclops! :cyclops: This little guy works great!

Klaus, this is fantastic news!  Congratulations!!  Can you imagine what would happen if TAS ever heard the Kismet mono's... I think we would all have to come to Indy to help out just so you could keep up with demand.  Maybe it's better we don't tell them...  :D

I first started with a pair of Khartago monos that totally blew away my 200wpc Rotel RB1080 power amplifier. I replaced the Khartago monos with a pair of Stratos green board monos.I later stepped up to a pair of Red board Stratos Mono Extremes. My next step in my Odyssey evolution is a pair of deluxe chrome faceplate Kismet in Khartago case monos with black boards and eight Symphonic Line Capacitors. WBT Nextgen RCA's and WBT Nextgen speaker terminals. Nobody wins as many awards for Amplifiers as Odyssey Audio and they win those awards because of performance not as a gift for purchasing advertising. Klaus and Son, Irina and Alex G should all take a well deserved Bow.

Congratulations to Klaus, Alex, and Irina for getting more much deserved recognition for great sounding electronics at affordable pricing! My short journey started with older Kiset in Khartago chassis monos, and Klaus just completed an upgrade to Odyssey Reference P/S caps and a re-biasing. After burn in they are even better, no grain and a bigger deeper soundstage, I'm loving them. I'm hoping to have a chance to audition a Candela in 2016. The Kismets are driving my Golden Ear Triton 1s to new heights, and they should be a perfect match for my GT Audio Works GTA 2.5 speakers, also due in early 2016.
     It is no surprise how busy Odyssey is considering their price/performance ratio is second to none, thanks to the Odyssey team for building superb sounding equipment that has real world costs. Getting very favorably compared to cost no object Solution amps could lead to excessive sales. Better get ready Klaus....

I am running my Triton Ones with a Stratos stereo extreme+++ amp and loving it.  I am using an all tube preamp in the chain as well, an Audible Illusions Modulus 3B (their latest and greatest).
