I came across this website when i was looking for a particular set of speakers which I thought no one would be willing to part with..ever.
I came across an add from Prithvi, Absolute Phase, Bangalore about a client of his who was parting with the Cadence "Amaya" for a respectable price. This was the exact speaker I had been dreaming about for the past 3 years.
It said "Mint" condition on the add but I always suspect the word mint in India..u know what I mean....
I was asked to have a DD sent to him in the owner's name....the money delivered
The deal was struck and he had them delivered to my door throuh Gati Cargo delivery services... the speaker arrived in 2 days time...till then I was very very sceptical on the state of the speaker and its supposedly "Mint" state... Every bit of the description of the speaker was met and even more...cause I have seen 2nd hand Cadence Amaya at my friends place and the wood work is quite faded and dull....
This speaker is very very well maintained and in a very very..almost pristine state...
Dealing with Prithvi was really nice and professional and as I see the speaker in front of me...no exaggerations were made on the quality of the speaker..
Awesome second hand deal ....
You can trust Absolute Phase..absolutely.

Hi Alwyn, have you set them up up with the components that you already have?
How is the sound & the ecstasy level?

Hi Kamal.
I have Zeroed down to the Vincent SV-236 MK II integrated..though the monoblocks were out of the world...the Vincent Preamp and Monoblocks would kill me by Rs 220000/- ONLY....aarrgghh...
Also gonna chk out a Cadence VA1 modified by a particular guy...Capacitors upgraded..RCA connectors upgraded..Tubes Upgraded....Internal VDH cables upgraded...
Thinking of the VA1 cause some of the guys on the forum loved the VA1 with Metal and rock and punchy stuff when there were certain modifications made to the Amplifier...Anyway wanna give the Modified VA1 a chance...
Also had a question...the input impedance of the Cadence VA1 is 10K Ohms...any cd player that matches this spec..cause another friend has the Cambridge Audio 640V2 player and he said he has to pump the volume of the VA1 real high to get some volume..
Anything on this...
Anyway...tomorrow will know if I have the Vincent 236 or the VA1
Also heard the single driver speaker Lyrita Speaker at a friends place...didnt like it...too dull and muffled for my taste
bye
