| What are your favorite songs or albums for illustrating a deep soundstage? Nice setup @blisshifi ! Glad you were able to squeeze a bit more out of it. Speaker and listening chair positioning is critical. Looks like you got room acoustics covered as well. Very cool. | |

| Amp suggestions for Goldenear Triton One.r speakers Kinki Studio integrated should be on your list. I have not heard it but it’s in your price range and has power to drive those GE speakers. | |
| Upgrade Preamp from MyTek Manhattan II? @theph0xx21 find a used Pass XP12. I compared it with running my Bricasti M3 DAC directly into an amp. While the M3 sounded great snd has a decent built in preamp, the XP12 was better. | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? After I ran two dedicated lines, I actually prefer the sound of my Pass XP22 preamp when connected direct to outlet. It wasn’t the case prior to implementing the dedicated circuits. | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? @decooney is the power cable on RG of equal or better quality than the power cables on your source and preamp? As to answering your question…I would try it and determine where it works best. I would also try to see what it sounds like with the hig... | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? @hilde45 correct. And to add to the power cord conversation…not all power cords work equally well on all components. The only exception I found so far is the Audience AU24se power cable that worked very well on all 3 DACs that I had over the last ... | |
| Sibilance I have this LP and zero nasties in a sibilance. Most likely a product of your setup. | |
| Picture worth a penny LOL!!!! Reflection of a guy in his underwear selling a pair of piano black high gloss speakers beats few dirty toenails. Good entertainment though. | |
| Ethernet switches the good and bad I use EERO mesh network and a Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System (Ethernet cable and passive filter) from EERO into my Bricasti M3 DAC. Tried a D-Link switch between the EERO and Eno, didn’t like it. | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? @hilde45 yes I did - digital and ethernet cables make a difference but they don’t have the same impact as other cables. Think about it…your amp is the last link in the chain before your speakers. Interconnects between your preamp and amp will impa... | |
| Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order? @hilde45 I’m going to make an assumption you are an experienced listener, your components, speakers and room are on the level to resolve changes in components or cables. So in my experience… 1. Interconnects 2. Speaker cables (super close second... | |
| my shortlist for integrated Harbethsuper hl5 plus xd - please advise I would retire that list in its entirety. For these speakers you need to step up to Pass, Luxman, Hegel, McIntosh. | |
