specialist hi-fi is so rewarding... here is just a selection of award-winners and the comments to prove it...
Coda 05X/CSX
" The 05X preamp is a thing of joy. It's the valve preamplifier for people who don't like valves. The richness and musical beauty that attracts people to ARC and conrad-johnson preamps is there in great detail. "

" Moving over to the Coda CSX, it seems to have seemingly endless power on tap, capable of delivering awesome dynamics (but without sacrificing those shades of dynamic subtlety that audiophiles crave). "

" Taken alone or together, the Coda 05X and CSX pre/power have got The Right Stuff. "
