| ~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought You do not mention anything about the type of sound you are looking for. Like filed coil speaker sound, open baffle, horns, etc. it comes down to preference not ours. If you are more specific on your experiences and what you like then there is ... | |
| System Plateau - Ideas? not sure about the DeHavilland preamp you have with the Dueland upgrades has the volume control been upgraded? AC filter choke? Resistors upgraded? The one I upgraded a few months back sounded excellent once those upgrades were performed. IMO... | |
| Poor Fritz As a manufacturer, there is risk in doing anything. Anyone can make a product. My partner and I know that if we send something out, it better sound so much better that what it is being auditioned against so that the potential buyer wants it peri... | |
| New speakers but old Rotel Amp Bang for the buck upgrade the caps and resistors before spending money on another amp that is built the same way. You will be surprised in the differences for cheap. | |
| Speakers which always sound good Two many to name you have to be more specific in what you are looking for and what experiences you have had to date. | |
| How do you know what you're missing? You have to hear it in your won system usually having a network where you can each come to the others home with a piece of gear or borrow from a local dealer Many cable companies all ow you a trial period - musical direct has a trail periodBut y... | |
| Manufacturers Are they still accepting orders? Maybe they are out of business. Remember counterpoint? Mike had the website up for three years even though he was not doing any upgrades or repairs.Go figure. | |

| Downside to R2R Ladder DACs? Plenty of electronic components will drift over time. You probably won't hear it s it is gradual. In direct comparison if you had a time capsule and kept a new one 20 years later to compare, you may be able to hear the difference. Not all R2R b... | |
| Downside to R2R Ladder DACs? Since we are an audio manufacturer that builds DHT R2R dacs, this is absolutely false. That would mean every component would have the same issues since everything has resistors in them.Dump that sales person. There is no superiority in r2r dacs,... | |
| I blew up my receiver. Now what? Most likely took out a few capacitors and resistors and probably the output device. Hard to tell. Pop the top and see what the damage is. Check the transformer. Good luck. | |
| The most criminal practice in the speaker industry revealed!! Keep reading Sorry I am a little tired and probably not clear on your post. It seems you are saying that without measurements one cannot tell which speaker is a better speaker than the other and relying on your ears is not a good way to judge this.First, I don... |
