| How long should high quality speakers last? @georgemunn I am going to order the plinth. I was unaware ZU offered the Omen Def Supreme tweeters. I'll have to look those up I believe ZU has discontinued the Omen Def Supreme. Maybe they will still build them on special order, however, they ar... | |

| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype I believe any component is "tuned" by the designer. So that DAC chip can have it's sound manipulated by how all the other pieces are put together. Power supplies make a huge difference, in my experience as well. Two different car models may share ... | |
| How long should high quality speakers last? 100 years in direct sunlight...sounds like I'm good. I could have the cabinets refinished if I want a visual change. | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? NOW, what about expensive "exotic" aftermarket fuses. What is one gaining (besides the case) with this $300 fuse? https://www.thecableco.com/accessories/masterpiece-m1-fuse.html | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? @61falcon The Bryston reply is interesting. Bryston seems to have others with issues and the cord was the culprit in some cases.

| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype I do agree with the video on one aspect, you don't need to spend $40,000 on a good sounding DAC. There is so much besides the chip. Like everyone has said, the power supply and output stage, etc. You also have the wiring and all the input and ou... | |
| Anyone own the Topping e70 Velvet? I just ordered one I have been listening to hi Rez streams (24/192) of Art Pepper and Chet Baker....tonight and I must say this is DAC is quite enjoyable. The mids and highs are really smooth. The mids have a hint of warmth without sounding muddy. I have not tried a... | |
| SACD Players I have an old Oppo 103 on my network and rip the sacds onto my hard drive. Then I can play thru Roon and to my native DSD Dac. Once you get it set up once...super easy to rip. I then store my SACDs with the rest of my CDs. | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? While rumor often has it that Pass doesn’t believe in upgrade power cords and cables, rumor and visitors also report that Pass uses expensive Silent Source Cables in their listening room and at shows...my Pass mono blocks came with good power cor... | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? @atmasphere Thanks for clarifying | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? I’m 58 years old. Back in the old Stereo Reviews I read as a kid, I do not remember emphasis on cables like we have today. I’m sure there were others, however, the first "cable" manufacturer of any big advertising clout I remember was Monster. For... | |
| Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers? @alexatpos Myy Luxman 595 came with a great power cable. I switched in A ZU Event cable and no difference at all. HOWEVER, The ZU cable was a smidge better with my old Nuforce ST120 (class a/b) vs the stock cord. Then again the NuForce was a $600 ... |
