| Proceed CD Library Maybe there’s someone still at Lyric HiFi that can help you or inquire within Lexicon for the answer. Didn’t the Lexicon line under Harmon International take over Madrigal when they closed the doors? The original owners of Proceed were the Lyric o... | |
| Schitt Yggdrasil Vs. Bluenode 2i (Shock!) I find the difference with my Vault 2 by its own or running into the DAC of my Cambridge 851c to be very noticeable and that being the Cambridge is more refined at both the top and bottom being more extended. The Cambridge is more open and relaxed... | |
| CD Spinners Help Needed: Pioneer Elite PD 65 or Enlightened Audio Design T 1000 As a transport I wouldn’t expect much difference between the two; both used the Pioneer stable platter. Been years but I’ve had them both at home, (years ago worked at a shop that sold both) and much preferred the The Theta Data Basic Transport ei... | |
| Vault 2 Love mine. I just use my iPhone - it’s easy peasy. Can’t speak for anything phone or tablet other than apple products. I haven’t tried anything hi res as I have been very happy with Tidal HiFi and my own collection of CDs I have ripped. What are y... | |
| AMP or Preamp I don’t believe the new ModWright KWH 225i is shipping yet but this might be something decent to hold you over in the meantime or use the rest of your cash to get a proper table.https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9fiei-modwright-kwi-200-stereo-i... | |
| R.I.P. Toshiba SA-2500....now what? You probably did fine. I was going to throw out the new entry level Marantz 2 channel receiver but after comparing my newer Marantz NR1506 multi channel receiver to a vintage Marantz 4300 I use at my office now, it’s no contest. The old Marantz 43... | |

| Upgrade McCormack or... ModWright KWA 100SE - used.No doubt the Gold upgrade will be worth doing if you keep it but agree you’ll be doing good to get what the upgrade will cost if you ever go to sale your amp. Definitely a following for your amp with the upgrade though.D... | |
| Aerial Acoustics 10t opportunity...too little, too late? If the 10t is like my 7b’s You’ll need a big amp or don’t bother. A min of 200w @ 8 ohm’s or they won’t deliver what they’re capable of; +250 is even better. If you have the amp, then make an offer that you can live with that if you don’t like the... | |
| Do I have my power cords in the right spot? Agree with all noted above; you just have to listen. Also good to keep your Cables tidy and keep distance from others, keeping power cords away from your IC’s the best you can. As your PC’s lay on the floor, also good to keep them away from your s... | |
