| Passive preamp As you have more than one source and are forced to use a preamp, you need something better than that piece of Schiit preamp. With that Schiit in front of Bricasti dac you pretty much wasted your money. You’ll know what I mean when you run M3 direc... | |
| Passive preamp Run your M3 directly into your amp and use its preamp which is awesome btw and may beat the schiit out of your freya s. let us know! | |
| Ethernet Switch- what's the point? ad nauseum And why? People just don’t search the forums. Easier to post a new thread and agitate that barely had a chance to develop some dry crust pile of 💩 to ensure that it continues to reek. One day when I’m bored I might start about half a... | |

| Passive preamp There’s more to it than just active vs. passive. It boils down to an overall design, quality of parts, power supply. There’s no such thing as a wire with gain. Anything in the signal chain will impart its sonic signature. A good property designed ... | |
| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 Trying all these different cables, I have confirmed the Absolute Copper is not working as well in this system as they had in my previous setup. There’s just no synergy. I’ve selected my next interconnects. AZ cables are looking for their new home. | |

| ROOM TREATMENTS @tattooedtrackman first if all, awesome system! Speakers might be a bit too close to each other but that’s just by looking at pictures… As to the acoustic treatment…take few good pictures of your room and submit for a free advice on GIK Acousti... | |
| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 @zavato I’ve had Matrix. Great cables but they’re warmer than my Absolute Copper. @jeffreyw evaluating Tyr 1 and 2. They’re great! Kimber KS 1126 is a close second with a bit more meat around the bone but not quiet there with top end compared ... | |
| Long XLR recommendations @tko956 I heard 3001 in my system between phono amp and line stage. It was terminated with the very nice Neotech gold plated RCA connectors. It’s a fine sounding cable and I would take it over Mogami any day. But if you go cheap on connectors, you... | |
| Furutech FP-TCS31 With FI-28 (R) Better than Virtual Dynamics Nite II Cord? Please Help Cool. Waiting to hear your thoughts. | |
| Pass Labs XA30.8 vs XA60.8 moon blocks I called Pass Labs with the same question. Recommendation for my speakers was X260.8. The XA60.8 will be an upgrade over XA30.8 not only because of higher power rating, which helps regardless, but also due to superior power supplies. Going from XA... | |
| Long XLR recommendations Stretch it to NEI-3001 and use rhodium plated connectors if you want more clarity. Gold plated will be warmer. Check soniccraft website. | |
| Furutech FP-TCS31 With FI-28 (R) Better than Virtual Dynamics Nite II Cord? Please Help Let us know. TCS is on my list to try next. | |
| Furutech FP-TCS31 With FI-28 (R) Better than Virtual Dynamics Nite II Cord? Please Help @ryder it will be great. Give it time. I have 28(R) on FPS-032n and love it. I’m confident TCS is a great cord so I wouldn’t worry about it |
