| Klipsch Heresy II Special Ed VS. Vandersteen 2c Be aware they are very efficient and not a choice to make neighbors happy in an apartment environment.The Heresy speakers sound great when played at lower volumes. While they are all very efficient and are easy to drive to loud volumes, some Kl... | |
| ***Is It Me Or Have Todays Modern Tubes Gotten REALLY REALLY Good*** I won't say which brands of tubes, because I am just one individual, so the sample size is really small and it could have just been bad luck, however...I decided to try rolling some new highly recommended tubes in my preamp. About a a month after... | |
| What is an Audiophile? Here's the list for newbies. Ouch. I resemble those comments! | |
| MHDT or Border Patrol I've been reading more about the MHDT DACs in forums all over and one theme keeps popping up. Time and time again, I see owners saying the reliability has not been great from boards going bad, to tubes dying quickly, to inputs not functioning a... | |

| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up I have a few DACs, some much more expensive, some with MQA, and I think they all support higher sampling rates. The Orchid is my favorite. | |
| Who needs a tuner? Pretty cool, but only a couple of stations listed where I live, and not the ones I listen to most. I guess my Onkyo T9090 II is still useful! | |
| Just wanted to share that I got a new reviewing gig with Six Moons.com website Nice review of the Orchid. I can't disagree with any of what he wrote, I love mine! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 It's nice to have friends like that! I also have a Radio Shack LAB440 direct drive fully automatic turntable that is surprisingly good. | |
| Do any of your Rolling Stones recordings bring "Satisfaction"? I just picked up the clear vinyl 180 gram version of Beggar's Banquet and it sounds really good, better than the older London versions I have. | |
| Non-Oversampling (NOS) vs, I only have one NOS DAC, a MHDT Labs Orchid. I'm listening to Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here with it as I type this and it sounds glorious. Out of the many DACs I have, it's the one I chose for the system I listen to with headphones most office. ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? A nice German pressing of Genesis Abacab and Black Sabbath S/T | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw The RPM9 is a "better" table, but I never made an emotional connection with it, which probably sounds dumb, but whatever. The RPM9 is very similar to my Music Hall MMF 7.1 - same motor, same decoupled design, same tonearm. The big differe... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw the JVC QL-Y66F is an 80's vintage fully automatic direct drive turntable. It has a really nice looking rosewood base with a large 14" platter. When I got it, I couldn't turn it up very loud or it would start to hum from airborne vibratio... |
