High end bookshelf speakers for Small room
I purchased the Fritz Carbon 7 II several months ago after watching a review posted by Dave on Youtube...one of the best audio buys I ever made all things considered. Fritz speakers are a incredible value (a steal in my opinion) and Fritz is a rea... 
JBL's Marketing Blunder..
The JBL team know exactly what they are doing and this ad is likely going to be a big hit for sales. Most young people are very familiar with the JBL brand via affordable bluetooth speakers and headphones. The under 35 female market is a different... 
Eversolo DMP 8 audition going poorly...
One of the things I like most is not being in the same room and being able to control the A8 without kneeling or the unit being anywhere in sight via the app on my phone and tablets.Some may get the impression the only way to operate the A8 is to ... 
Eversolo DMP 8 audition going poorly...
I own the A8 and my experience with Qobuz is, it is way overhyped cannot wait until the prepaid year is up.My strong suggestion would be to try another streaming service. Qobuz is dull and lifeless in my opinion not the A8. In my experience the se... 
Eversolo A6/A8
I am always disappointed to read or hear about a lackluster performance in audio as in my experience things are often over hyped or someone could have simply received a lemon...I own a Eversolo A8 moving up from the A6 and I’ve been extremely happ... 
Amazon music vs Qobuz
@mashif I concur with your observation comparing the two. I own the Eversolo A8 and AMHD sounds better than Qobuz to my ears. A lot has gone on in the background at Amazon Music since this discussion was created 2 years ago the improvements will s... 
Youtube audiophile hi res sounds MUCH better than my Eversolo streamer
You may very well be on to something. HIFI Rose has the youtube music app included on its streamers and many owners have the same experience to their surprise the experience is excellent and with the added benefit of the vid playing in the screen ... 
Eversolo Flagship DMP -8 - Dac Streamer Server Preamp- A True Audiophile Bargain
@audioman58 and @musiclover1 I too have a A8 in my system for about 4 weeks now and I concur it is an outstanding value. Interesting I made a similiar post regarding the A8 when my A8 arrived (stating how well it performed out of the box) and one ... 
Started with $1k speakers … what now?
@lanx0003 Your points are well taken however I’ve yet to come across the perfect audio componet in everyone’s eyes. I would ask you this...Can you recommend a speaker that cost less the the Carbon 7’s (new) that has superior componets, better buil... 
Started with $1k speakers … what now?
Point taken however I disagree,no one has made mention of JBL or B&W or Martin Logan thus far in this thread as something the OP should seek out new or used.  
Started with $1k speakers … what now?
@erik_squires "OMG, Fritz is such a small time operator, that there are no used Fritz speakers says nothing about the brand." I would beg to differ for me it suggests owners tend to keep them because it is superior product. I just spoke with Fr... 
Started with $1k speakers … what now?
I don’t disagree with any of your points I become annoyed when folks suggest items WAY above the OP’s stated budget and folks that recommend products they have no first hand experince with. Seeking speakers with a 5K budget in mind would suggest t...
