Buying Service?
The manual is dated 3/2019. It was replaced by the e68. Manual date 1/2021. Unfortunately, Exasound offers no optional balanced XLRs for the e68, which I need. That really stinks because only the top model s88 has them-but along with advanced DSD,...

HiFi Shark Yes, I'm following there too.  
Buying Service?
https://www.exasound.com/Products/e38MarkII8-channelDAC.aspx Must include the balanced XLR upgrade. Someone just beat me to it at HiFI Shark; it even included the Pardo ps. It's discontinued and even if I found one with the RCAs Exasound said that... 
Revel Performa F228 Be speaker... thoughts?
 There is not a better speaker then the 228be in its price range. Just have to listen to things and see what you like. They are a flat accurate speaker and that does not mean you will like them but they are near perfect.  Revels sound nothing ... 
Acoustic Suspension sound in 2020?
Thanks for this thread guys. What about using AR3a's other vintage acoustic suspension speakers in a 5.1 system with Rythmik sealed and/or GR Research (Danny Richie) open baffle subs? But if yes, what to do for a CC speaker?  
Am I the only one who doesn’t love Harbeth P3esr?
Rambo 21, have your impressions changed at all with the P3-ESRs? Still perceptions of brightness? Any changes in tonality of the midrange? Size or dimensions of soundstage? Same pretty much true regardless of amplifier and/or room placement?   
has anybody else noticed this about flac audio?
Here is a question for everyone though. In the 21st century, where storage and bandwidth are dirt cheap, why for the love of Mozart, Frank Zappa, and The Who does anyone use ANY form of compression?............There is absolutely no good technical... 
Pioneer LX500 BD player vs. Arcam BD players
Have you found one in stock somewhere? I ordered it from Best Buy store on Long Island two weeks ago and picked it up from there last Tuesday. They started out with five in stock but I couldn't place my order (thanks to their buggy online app tha... 
Pioneer LX500 BD player vs. Arcam BD players
Until I get to build my USB audio surround sound system, thank goodness the LX500 has stereo analog outputs, unlike this bad joke. https://www.soundandvision.com/content/cambridge-audio-cxuhd-ultra-hd-blu-ray-player-review Not that I would eve... 
Pioneer LX500 BD player vs. Arcam BD players
 Yes, I’ve scoured the manual pdfs of every top Sony and Panasonic 4K player, including the very unaffordable McIntosh.At least according to the manuals, I think some have slow motion, but I’m sure none of them have even the basic zoom that my Opp... 
Pioneer LX500 BD player vs. Arcam BD players
Thanks for the warning about Arcam BD players, though these reviews generally give it high marks for both video and audio performance. https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/arcam-udp411 https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/arcam-udp411 The UD... 
Oppo 95: Low Output via Stereo RCAs
No mods were done to the Oppo 95 and he purchased it new from Oppo, the seller said.  
Oppo 95: Low Output via Stereo RCAs
Also, is the Oppo modified? I own a modified Oppo that I rarely ever used anymore. If I recall correctly, the max output was greatly reduced due to the mods. Seems to me the out was max'd at about 1v, not the typical 2v.  Success, well at lea... 
Oppo 95: Low Output via Stereo RCAs
I did turn volume to 100%; no help. Neither did turning off Dynamic range control. Next I will go into speaker config settings and look what levels they are even though the manual says on p.17 " "The STEREO AUDIO OUT terminals automatically down... 
Oppo 95: Low Output via Stereo RCAs
