So are you saying new wife?
|
Zero nothing nota. Matter of fact I am consolidating and cleaning house. |
Hello,
For MC to sell his Herron phono stage to me for $2500. |
Canton Ref 2 speakers. Anyone have a good (or any for that matter) source? |
Hello,
For MC to sell his Herron phono stage to me for $2500. Dream on. I'm dreaming of a Onkk Cue and Soundsmith SG1. If that dream came true I might just maybe sell the Herron. But not for $2500. Not with all the TC, fO.q and Krissy magic mine has. Add another thou, at least. Not to worry, it would still be a bargain even at $4k. My #1 real answer is the Raven Blackhawk, already on order. Question then will be does that fill the bill, or is it a place holder for when they can build me a Reflection? |
Dr Feikert Trio with a Kuzma 4 point 11.
But if we are talking obtainable now with current funds, I would like to know if there is a non VPI tone arm that I can mount to my VPI Super Prime Scout.
Unless VPI will make the gimbaled arm on the new Prime 21 available to purchase seperately for a reasonable price. |

Thanks to a certain member who will go unnamed but has a fetish for
white hot stampers my next audio purchase will be a turntable. I resemble that remark! |
A larger, heavier version of something I already have. Delivered when my wife is not home. |
Done. Only I gave it to her when you were not home.
|
That's easy, I need a Aurender N100SC streamer, the one with the digital coax output and on board SSD for your library.. That thing is nice, problem is I just picked up a Schiit Yggdrasil and a bunch of Synergistic Research Orange fuses (which are shockingly amazing) so I need to cool it on buying toys for a little while. |
A pair of good subs, maybe Rel t9 or similar to go with my LRS. Or possibly move up the Maggie line to 1.7i? Also a better DAC than the Joilda I have now. Damn those Denafrips reviews! :-) |
I've been toying with the idea of investing in an R2R DAC. Specifically the Denafrips Pontus II.
I haven't pulled the trigger because I'm fairly confident it wont be a order of magnitude improvement over my current Gustard X16.
I'm keeping and eye on the used market and if a good deal on a Pontus II pops up, I might go for it. |
Mullard el84s and SR foundation PCs…
then I really am done :-) |
I haven’t pulled the trigger because I’m fairly confident it wont be a order of magnitude improvement over my current Gustard X16. not gonna happen... order of magnitude improvements just don’t happen in this pursuit unless you are talking about spendor sp100's over bose 301’s $1700 chi-fi r2r dac over $600 chi-fi ds unit... lucky if its 10-15% better... then we all decide how much that is worth to us... but once you have heard better, the lesser option is pretty hard to retreat to... |
Definitely going back to Magico. Miss them so much since I changed them to YG. |
Right now I’m working on component isolation,and still playing with different cables. I would like to add a more competent CD transport before retirement. But as we all know,directions can change in the blink of an eye. |

Yamaha NS-5000 speakers and some sort of amplifier to power them. :) |

Time tested. Thank goodness for tracking notifications.

Well I have to say it's two wants and one arrived (delivered by the good people at Music Direct) a few days ago was my what I am calling my last SACD/CD player that is replacing a Yamaha CD-S2100 SACD/CD player that I purchased six seven months earlier (anyone interested in a mint SACD? CD player?) and for GR Research to finalize an update kit for the ATC SCM19v2' that I'm interested in. And then I hope I'm done updating , upgrading stuff and just sit down and just listen to music. |
My one want would be to hear an altec lansing a1x play my favorite recordings in a location that is good for sound using those speakers.
|
vituss
I too am waiting for GR Research to rebuild the XOs for my Tannoys.
Once I have those done and the new clock upgrade for my DAC
I am sure I will have achieved bliss!! |
Passive volume control.
Maybe getting rid of the preamp will help. Maybe not.
Best system ever heard.
Maybe a Jung super-regulator. .
Tough call.
|
I did it…sold the Node2i and went with a Aurender N100SC. Can’t wait to get everything up and running! |
Don’t know what it is yet.
The families increased day to day use of digital has me in a conundrum of deciding a more universal access device over our current Squeezebox Touch.
|
Feickert Volare for my second system. And maybe a Hi Fi Rose for my main rig ... |
Very next step is an upgrade to my PreAmp/Dac/Headphone amp from the Burson Conductor 3 Performance to the Conductor 3 Reference(unbalanced)..
After that maybe(BIG maybe)an upgrade from the M30.1's to a 3 way floorstander & I'm off the merry go round for good... |
Critical mass 11/2 set of four next week have 4 sets already series 2. |
A Schiit Lokius and a Schiit Yggdrasil "Less is More" DAC.
Cheers! |
The new RAAL-Requisite headphone amp ($5K) for the SR1a and the new headphones they are releasing. It is a tube based design and I tend not not like tubes however, after speaking with RAAL-Requisite I am very interested to hear it. |
A new turntable arm and cartridge. I'm pretty sure it is going to be a Clearaudio Performance DC with the Tracer arm and an Ortofon Cadenza Bronze cartridge. I plan to drive to Atlanta next Wednesday and buy them.
|
On first my thought of the first OP, I thought about re-cocking DAC LOL! |
