I have used a CDS3/555PS but went back to the Krell before I've finally settled on the CD555. The kps25s was a big & bold sounding fun system without brightness. Speed and micro dynamics were compromised compared to the CD555 but a 300 and 552 surprisingly did a pretty good job holding things together.

I've added a vinyl source in '09. It' s a late 80's spec LP12 with a filterless Lingo I PSU. I was lucky enough to find another Mana Wall Shelf. The tonearm is my favourite Naim ARO. This deck was overhauled in late 2010 with Cirkus and Naim power supply. The result is very different from what I was comfortable with but all *Naimed* Sondek still works well with the early 80s vintage Briks. There's something inherently right or the right *click* in spite DMS's tired old xovers.

I would love to run my PMS which are still in storage waiting to be in service some day. Failing that I might try converting this pair to passive with newer xovers to see what improvements, if any, brings.
