| What equipment have you bought this year so far ? Upgraded from a Bluesound node2 feeding a Modwright Elyse DAC to a Linn Klimax DSM. | |
| Experience with Linn Select DSM? I went big and got the Klimax DSM. I don't know if you have read much about Linn but they believe in Source First approach, that the source is the building block of a sound system. So you are debating going for the Select DSM vs DSM + AMP OR go u... | |
| Yggdrasil or iFi pro dac I have a Yggi and have compared it to my Oppo UPD 205 which has 2 ESS 9038 Pro chips and prefer the sound of the Yggi which not based upon a delta sigma design but a R2R and it will not play MQA. The Benchmark is also based upon ESS so it would so... | |
| Experience with Linn Select DSM? I think I know the shop you were in, been there a few times myself. So I recently switched to a Linn streamer from a Node 2 connected to a Modwright Elyse DAC which sounded VERY good. I too was skeptical but have been 100% please and amazed by t... | |
| Power Amp advice I have had a Maggie speaker since the 1980s, started with the MGIII, then 3.7 and finally the 20.7s. The 3.7s and 20.7s with Mye stands.For the MGIIIs the best amp I had for them was a Bryston 4BST, on the 3.7s and 20.7s I tried a MC452 which was... | |
| One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All.... Not a fan of Mcintosh amps and their autoformers, I have heard too many amps that are better. The best amps I have ever heard on the most impressive systems are Burmester, 911 or 959's. Recently I heard a system priced >$1M, it consisted of ... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? Well if HiFi tuning said it, it has to be true and once again Mr Kait has yet to provide ANY documentation or data to support his statements, he just says something & insults anyone who challenges what he claims and its magically true! | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @geoffkait So, i'm still waiting for your data/documentation that shows that wire directionality OR cable brake-in applies to a AC circuit.Lets set the table once again on what AC current is:Alternating Current (AC) flows one way, then the other w... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @and2 If what you are suggesting is true, that believing in data is dogma then we would never had made it to the moon, for that matter concurred powered flight! | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? I did ask geoffkat multiple insults ago:Please share with us the measurable, repeatable data the proves wire is directional AND that wire break-in is real!@rlwd posted this which is spot on:All us doubters are saying is "prove it". I don’t know ho... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @andy2 Unfortunately you are right about changing the topic, sorry about that. @morrowaudio did make a statement about it and i asked him to present his data that shows this to be true, ie testing that shows any difference of resistance/inducta... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @geoffkait If you mean the pseudoscience statement you posted earlier? its NOT proof in any way, its a statement with NO actual test data to back it up. If you ask me your quote below is proof you do not understand how AC current works! If you ... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @geoffkait Ok now you are lowering the conversation to insults, pretty low grade insults too which is just another way you are avoiding the very simple request to document your claims, is wire directional, and HOW would that work in a AC circuit??... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @teo_audio Well, if that were the case i would had trouble staying employed for the last 40 years. So reading your response you are trying to say that in some cases AC current does NOT behave in the way science & engineers understand it? Yo... | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? @geoffkait Here you go again, changing the subject without providing ANY proof of your statements? We are ALL waiting for your explanation on how wire directionality works in a AC circuit???Come on, step up and share with us your vast scientific... |
