    K&L has one arriving soon, but shipping would be an issue.

    Washington, DC SF Holiday Party: THURSDAY, JANUARY 30th

    Best place I can think of would be downstairs at Jack Rose, but it's really at the bottom of Adams Morgan rather than 'North Dupont'.

    NYI - I don't think I recall you ever mentioning Bowmore, which would fit this profile, too. Have you tried any of their stuff? If not, the Darkest would probably be a good place to start.

    Only if worn over your pants, Batman style.

    Had a single barrel Kilchoman at the Flatiron Room a couple weeks back. Strong peat, but not all that well integrated with other flavors. Didn't appeal to me, but YMMV.

    Only if you give some notes on the Arran Malt Devil's Punchbowl. Is it the I or the II? Saw it in Astor a couple weeks back and was intrigued, having had some good luck with Arran in recent months. In terms of advice, depends which direction you want to go. Looks like you've got a lot of peat...

    Dress code? Are we still aiming for black tie?

    Gordon and Macphail George and J.G. Smith Glenlivet 21 is excellent. I've had good luck with G+M, the Classic Cask, First Editions, and AD Rattray. Sorry to say that to date I haven't been impressed with the Duncan Taylor stuff, particularly the Dimensions line.

    What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want?

    Just a humble old Musical Fidelity A3.5 CDP. While it lacks some detail, it has a very organic sound with good imaging and works really well with the rest of the system. I've looked at some newer CDPs, but am leaning in the direction of a DAC instead. Just got to find the right one...at the...

    What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want?

    Thanks - I really enjoy them, and have yet to hear anything that sounds better to my ears. That said, there's lots I haven't heard. You also mentioned Pass Labs a couple posts back - I drive the Vandy's with the XP 20 into the X250.5, and the synergy is very good.

    What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want?

    Interesting - I've heard most of the Wilson line (in store and at an audio show) and found them dry and lifeless, seemingly regardless of source/amplification. What was driving the pair you liked so much? I have the Vandy 5As, and am extremely happy with them. Used to be a cable skeptic as...

    What stereo(s) do you listen to? What do you want?

    I am not a purist when it comes to tubes vs solid state (have heard great ARC tube amps and preamps) but - FWIW - if money were no object I'd probably go for Pass Labs class A mono-blocks. But that is assuming they're driving Vandersteen or Magico speakers - a drier voiced speaker would probably...

    NYI - what do you like so much about the Springbank? I keep giving it chances and not being moved.
