Classe vs. Anthem vs. Parasound
The Anthem power amplifier is a bit on the clean but drier side.The Parasound is a big rich full bodied sound and that is a great price but Ebay would scare me. The Classe is a very warm amplifier and this model is an older design.I would look at ... 
Audio Troy Capital Audio Fest the good, the bad and the ugly!
Totally correct Pops:We  thought the Devore/Luxman room was underwhelming, way too big a room, and too low a sounstage for such an expensive rig.VPI's new statement piece Vanquish was very interesting driven by Krell electronics, wired with Nordos... 
Looking at Anthem preamp. Do I need it? Also the Innuos Zenith (Zen?) and or Lumin T2?
Cissado, unfortunately almost  all modern streamers use an Iphone, Android or Table to control the device.Just curious to what you don't like? The sound quality of the Blue Sound is decent but a far cry from a higher end device. None of the major ... 
need recommendations for standmount speakers
We have currently a lot of monitors in that price range, from ATC, KEF, Dali, Paradigm, Quad. The Quad Z2 is one of the best sounding monitors we have ever heard in the $2,500.00 price point. All the drivers are custom designed including one of th... 
Innuos Statement Review
Hewhaw why would a two piece with a separate power supply that sits directly underneath the CPU/Drive section be any more strange than a two piece Core and Renderer?With the Statement you have a massive power supply that sits directly under the ma... 
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Actually no, the Statements Ethernet port is the same quality as the Statements USB board. Where a Phoenix plus a Zeniths over USB would be very close to a Statements USB, the Ethernet would not be as good. Dave and TroyAudio Doctor NJ Innuos dealers 
Innuos - New Re-Clocker
Actually thyname, they are shipping in November. We already have one on order, will let the group know how good it is and how it compares to the full blown Statement.One thing to consider is that the Statement also provides a re packed and cleaned... 
Does this exist? Preamp/Streamer/DAC with MQA, Roon and more
Firststoneguy, that is not from us, we do not have a high regard for PS Audio, we have had in the earlier Perfect wave dac and it was okay, and we tested their power conditioner and was not pleased with that one either compared with the Isotek and... 
Stereo pre-amp with AV processor?
Self we are an Anthem dealer and we work equally with both Home Theater and music systems. The Anthem STR preamp is good there are better two channel preamps and even better dacs. It all comes down to what you are trying to achieve.Please reach ou... 
Roon Nucleus Question?
The Roon app runs on Android devices, the ability to run Roon on a TV even one that is using an Android based operating system is doubtful.The easy thing to do would be to try to down load the app from the Android Store, if it runs good to go.We d... 
Paradigm Persona the right source matters!
Three easy payments Kenjit's posts are usually combative and dismissive of the entire audiophile process.Not to mention a Tool is usually a good thing, he could be a pneumatic  drill for example a totally useful tool or not.Dave and TroyAudio Doct... 
Paradigm Persona the right source matters!
Kenjit you are a tool that doesn't understand context.The first part pertains to the fact that even with a well setup set of loudspeakers you still have to appreciate that  loudspeakers set of attributes. So for example you may hear a well setup s... 
Looking at Anthem preamp. Do I need it? Also the Innuos Zenith (Zen?) and or Lumin T2?
OP first of all always give a dealer a chance on earning your business sometimes we have demos or open box units which may be a bit more expensive than used but not always way more expensive.The T2 is excellent and can sound fanatastic with the Pe... 
DCS Rossini + Digital or Puccini + CDs?
OP if you get a really state of the art music server such as an Innuous Zenith or Statment coupled with a good USB cable you should get a sound out of the streamer which should completely outperform the optical playback. Dave and TroyAudio Doctor ... 
Innuos Statement Review
Hehhaw, no you missed our points entirely and we have read all the Antipodes website, please point to their "white paper" on their noise reduction techniques we would love to read it.The elimination of "noise via digital manupulation of software i...
