| Magico's M9 I think it was Jay's Audio who once reviewed a pair of Magico speakers and said the tweeter was like $13k... if it blew out and if you crated up one speaker and sent it back to Magico to fix they would email you back when the work was finished and... | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops crlambert 1 Read ghasley comments and learn something. 2 Smoke a good doobie and chill out. 3 To the OP, I am apologizing to you for all the inappropriate comments. 4 I am a veteran myself and gives thanks or help veterans everyday as part of ... | |
| Considering a Node2i, what else should I be looking at? Very happy with Node and Vault. The customer service has been 110% and those guys go above and beyond. The ONLY drawback I see is the wireless connection is not always reliable. But wired to a rounter has been perfect. I have been very impressed w... | |
| Best quality connection from Network Streamer (BluSound Node II) to Preamp (MC C2700) I agree with jjss49 and carlsbad2. I have a Node 2 and used the internal DAC, then moved to a Schiit Bifrost DAC, then to a Bifrost 2 DAC, then to a Denafrips Pontus 12th DAC and it was an uptick in sound performance with each step. I also upgrade... | |
| When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? Okay Alex. You have solved this mystery, once and for all. I bow to your knowledge. | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops The demand for HiFi and Hi End audio is diminishing. The younger generations don’t spend large sums of money on this hobby. Yes there is a turntable guy here and there, but the ones they buy to spin records are not high dollar investments in tonea... | |
| When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? I say this again, "You see what is behind your eyes, not what is in front of them". You are going to get 1 million answers and each one is correct in that person's mind. The minds eye. The same holds true for ears and hearing... | |
| Amp vs Preamp which is more important? The amp is far more important. Why? Because there are many components that one can use with the amp that have preamp capability and functions. Many will keep the signal path simpler and negate the need for a preamp. | |
| I am interested to update my 15 year old system ! If you like Bluesound, you can purchase a Vault and point the address where your files are on the Harddrive of the Macbook pro. I think you can do that with your Node now. Either will play them on your stereo. Additionally you can copy any new CD ... | |
| When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? HiFi means High Fidelity. Largely it’s in your mind and relative. When someone attaches a label to a piece of gear/kit, that is what it is in their mind (they may have never heard the audio component before). For some who go to audio shows and hav... | |
| Salk Future TBD I have never owned any Salk speakers but from what I have gathered from reading and looking at his speakers I have admired the craftsmanship and Jim seems very professional and likable. This brand and Volti audio were on my bucket list for speaker... | |
| Picking Speakers 20k-30k If it were me, I would not rush to buy speakers in that price range. Too many good choices and I would take my time to get the best one for me. I would travel to dealers and have them set up speakers/equipment based upon my conversations with them... | |
| Integrating speakers into contemporary decor - can WAF ever be overcome? I agree with some posters here. Giver her the MIER choice completely. You get the dedicated audio room and pick your components and speakers. All done. Your welcome. | |
| Inexpensive streaming amplifier An all in one unit is sometimes a preferred option because it's simple to use. When everything is controlled by an app on the smart phone... well every young person is comfortable with that...no? | |
| BEST CD TRANSPORT Yes. Actually sounds better sometimes with the Denafrips DAC. I know there are a great many streamers out there that will out perform the Node. No doubt. But they also have much bigger price tags. I wanted to see how much better the Node could sou... |
