| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? Where am I going with this question? It's really simple, I have imposed a budget amount myself and shared it in this post. I am interested in others here, what is your budget? Do you have one? Have you a self imposed ceiling amount of money you do... | |
| Vinshine/Alibaba..What to buy and where? I bought a Denafrips Pontus 12 anniversary last month from Vinshine. I could not be more pleased with it. I think the brand and supplier are worth the extra expense. Chinese counterfeit goods are a real problem. Why take the risk? If one wants to ... | |

| Biggest "bang for the buck" audio gear you have owned(in your history)? Magnepan MMG $600 and now the Magnepan LRS + ($1100) If you have enough current and power in your amp. These speakers, decades apart are killer!!!! For the money. | |
| Is anyone using a HDMI cable for I2S connection between digital components? To all... thanks for the info. It's as clear as mud now. 😂 haha | |
| the big one: how do you choose speakers? By what features, data? Sound, price, and does the company back their product, can I get parts and what is the overall customer service? Without the 3rd consideration covered...I don’t have the brand on my list. There have been very popular and great sounding speaker co... | |
| Question for Vandersteen owners Yes I have two Vandersteen 2ce Sig2 mated with two Rythmik Subwoofers F12G-SE-PEQ. It takes patience to dial in the subwoofers to match well with speakers and placement must be just right. In fact, one may not like where the subwoofers sound the b... | |
| How do you assess a DAC? jimmyblues1959, well said and I agree. Enjoy what you have and enjoy the music. I never let statistics or measurements guide my opinion about what I hear. | |
| Prospectives on Chi-Fi nonoise Thanks I will be on the lookout. Not sure why it's so hard to be civil and helpful?? for some here? | |
| Prospectives on Chi-Fi Just for my own information. How will I recognize one who keeps changing their username and posts stupid things again and again? Other than the very obvious "prospectives" instead of "perspectives ". | |
| Used DACs for sale - help me choose Kingbr stole my words. I have a Denafrips Pontus 12th anniversary and it outshines all the DAC's I had before it. The Ares 2 would be very similar, I am thinking. | |
| How do you assess a DAC? I have a separate DAC and streamer. I have found that a simple Bluesound Node 2 can be made to sound much better .. paired with a better DAC. At this time my DAC cost me 4x more than the Node 2. But I have upgraded my DAC three times and with each... | |
| Cen. Grand DSDAC 1.0 (vs Pontus II) I have never invested more than $600 into a stand alone external DAC, until recently I opted to get the Denafrips Pontus 12th anniversary DAC. It has taken my audio setup to another level. But if I wanted to go the DSD route, I would invest in a P... | |
| Thinking about another amplifier (Galion) I have a small LM Audio amp the 216i. I was told by the dealer years ago that two brothers (one brother had now passed) who own and design the products based the design(s) off the old US brand Western Electric. I think some Chinese audio companies... | |
