| Best Alignment Protractor? I've had a Dr. Feikert protractor for quite a few yeas now and like it very much. | |
| What does your DAC sound like My Naim NP555 and 555DR PS sound like music as I like it to. | |
| How large (or small) is the audiophile market? Guys, with all respect intended, would you please take this quarrel offline. You have totally derailed this thread. | |
| "IN THE BEGINNING" Audiophilia! I really enjoyed that video. Thank you for sharing it. | |
| Vintage Japanese DD Consult and Suggestions Please Thank you LEWM Isn’t “GT5000” a reference to Yamaha’s latest TT (not vintage) which is belt driven? With respect, none of the TTs on your list is top drawer among vintage Japanese DD TTs. Here’s my list of the best, all of which are still wort... | |
| Vintage Japanese DD Consult and Suggestions Please I used to collect Japanese direct drive tables but sold them all off to a vintage collector a few years ago. JVC QL-y66f great sounding table with a very nice tonearm/wand combo. Mitsubishi LT-5V great table for show and tell but a pain to set a... | |
| Recommendations for a new subwoofer? I'm using two REL 212/SX subs and I couldn't be happier. | |
| Moving to Tube Separates or Tube Integrated + Phono I have an all tube system with the exception of my digital streamer, It started many years ago with Dynaco separates, then went to Sonic Frontiers, then Aesthetix, culminating now to all modern Conrad Johnson. I also have as a back up, a pair of t... | |
| Qobuz Connect Launched Yesterday I got to use Qobuz Connect for the first time last night on my Naim ND555. I found that I had to reload the Naim app on my iPhone and them download a firmware update from Naim to the unit itself. Qobuz Connect now shows up on the Naim app right be... | |
| Why most $3000 and lower DAC’s sound almost identical dynamiclinearity; I'm not astute enough to be able to discern between the impact each aspect of the Naim contributes. However, in the near future, I will learn more with regards to the impact of the power supply as I plan to purchase a second 555D... | |
| Why most $3000 and lower DAC’s sound almost identical Each time I upgraded my DAC/Streamer I experienced a significant improvment in sound, soundstage, and detail. I first started with an Arcam ST60 (ESS based), then moved up to a Cary DMS-600 (AKM based), and as of several weeks ago my new Naim ND55... | |
| Grade Master3 cartridge--Moving Iron Design I have two modern Grado cartridges which I hold in high esteem. The first is the Timbre Reference 3, and the other is their second from the very top, the AEON 3. The AEON 3 is on my greatly upgraded Linn LP12 and it will be there for a very long ... | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies I have a Clearaudio Double Matrix Pro Sonic (long name) cleaning machine, and I like it very much. It does both mechanical and sonic cleaning/drying on both sides of an LP at the same time. I had a VPI 16.5 for many years and this is much easier ... | |
| DAC 'Scam' Vid This past weekend I finished my upgrade from a $7k Cary to a $30k plus Naim ND 555 with the separate 555DR power supply. As good as the Cary sounded in my system, the Naim is much better all around, as it should be given the price. After selling m... | |
| Audience Cables My entire system contains Audience Front Row. I had demo's Audioquest Firebird which was very good, but the Front Rows beat them in my opinion. I had Tellurium Q Ultra Black for many years prior to this. |
