A1UC Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) I ended up placing a order for a Lio from Vinnie Rossi , I should have it in 3 weeks . The one I ordered is just basically a pre amp with a AVC/Tubestage Module http://vinnierossi.com/lio-technology/ http://vinnierossi.com/ http://vinnierossi.com/store/#!/LIO-System-Expansion-Modules/c/13223079/inview=product50466348&offset=0&sort=normal http://vinnierossi.com/reviews/ Edited March 26, 2016 by A1UC 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I ended up placing a order for a Lio from Vinnie Rossi , I should have it in 3 weeks . And for about 3 weeks. Seriously, I enjoy reading about some of your purchases otherwise I may have never even knew of the brands or models. It is interesting how many of us(not you) don't understand how much a preamp has a say in what the final sound is out the speakers. Photos my friend when it arrives.

A1UC Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) Also what's nice about the LIO is one can add what ever modules needed themselves , also when new upgraded modules are released one can get credit for the old module and install themselves very little down time . I bought it for just the preamp AVC/Tubestage Module http://vinnierossi.com/store/#!/LIO-System-Expansion-Modules/c/13223079/offset=0&sort=normal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited March 27, 2016 by A1UC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockhound Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I really like this concept of easily upgrading or adding modules to an existing chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fjd Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 We may be waiting for a while for a review and I'm thinking that I'll just add this one to my list of items that I'm still waiting for the AU1C review to be posted, along with the review of the VRD upgrade (wondering if he got the MagneQuest transformer upgrade). Without the reviews, it has been getting much more difficult to live vicariously through AU1C's purchases these days. Okay its not as good as the VRD but its still is a nice integrated I have been listening to it everyday for close to a month and have nothing negative to say about it . I bought this new about a month ago this to use while my NBS / VRDS where getting upgraded .Looks like they will be back next week . This is a really great sounding integrated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eth2 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Give the guy a break. It is difficult to find all the best stuff, order it, write the check, unpack it upon arrival, set it up.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark1101 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Looks pretty nice. Not to hijack, but can you explain the VRD upgrades and the result in the sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 New Pre Amp On The Way and when is the "old" one, on the way out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1UC Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 New Pre Amp On The Way I'm going to listen to this one all weekend and put the NBS back on Moday and go from there , one thing that is nice about the Lio is the headphone module sounds good and the remote controls balance as well as volume kind of miss that . But those 2 features won't make my decision it will all be about the sound . The Lio is also over double cost of the NBS and that's for just the Preamp and when is the "old" one, on the way out?
