All:

I heard a new Perreaux Reference 350 amp the other night . . .  I liked it SO much more than I thought I would.  In fact, it was the best I had heard my dealer's system.  This guy has had JC1's through there, the Rowland 201's, Cary V12, Pass X350, Audio Research VT200, and a few other amps in that system.  This one was truly spectacular!

It just caught me off guard I guess. . .  I was expecting something almost as good as Plinius, and I was shocked.  I will be trying one at the house to see how it compares to the Plinius. . .

This isn't a review. . More of a feeler to see if anyone else has heard any of the new stuff.  I am going to listen to the Radiance today, and see how that is.

What is the asking on those guys?  Did you take a look at the "P" version?  What the heck were they thinking?  Holy cow is that hideous!!

I agree. . That other design is over the top.  I am not sure those will even make it to the states.  

Not sure about pricing yet.  They just got setup with a better distributor than the old Advisor.

And Sanibel is also the distributing Piega speakers. So B , are they a good match ?

Well that's what I heard the Perreaux on, so my answer is an emphatic yes.  I haven't been able to hear the Radiance yet, but in the next couple of weeks.  I am not in a hurry to hear anything b/c the preamp I just got brought the Plinius to life!
