| Guidance on Speaker Wire check with Auditorium23 in Germany, their cable is designed for minimum resistance and very high quality. Not sure though whether they will ship that length. Better solution would be having the amps behind the speakers on balanced interconnects | |
| A warm DAC? My point is and has been that compensating for one component‘s forward or harsh sound by chosing another ‘warmer’ component down the chain amounts to adding colorations. I have no desire to define absolute transparency nor neutrality, when people ... | |
| A warm DAC? Wouldn‘t that amount to fighting one coloration with another? My own experience throughout many years of improving my system has been that avoiding any deviation from neutrality and transparency is the only good way to achieve life-like sound repr... | |
| Most organic / real / analogue sounding DAC (ideally with Volume Control) for $1500?????? Dacs have very high output. All you need is a passive potentiometer. The best is a Wavac Att-s which can usually be found below £2k. I‘d advise against active preamps because they all add their own sound signature. Really good preamps are hideousl... | |
