Large room with low budget for speakers
  yyzsantabarbara 3,097 posts 05-06-2022 at 10:12am  Give GIKAccoustics a call and see if they can help you sort out your room before you spend that $30K.   You should create a Virtual System page on Audiogon. It will also help if you call... 
Local pick up only…
As said above, it’s their choice.    Another reason for this is also the new tax implications for Venmo and PayPal reporting transactions as income.    A local deal will usually be cash.   
Warm but holographic & forward vocals.
@erik_squires I'll look into it.

Thank you @holmz really appreciate the recommendations.  And yes, Soule Domaine is still there!  Have only been once, it's an odd spot!    @erik_squires I might reach out to Fritz about getting a pair sent over here.   I also had somebody recom...

Been meaning to listen to something from Fritz. Need to figure out how.   
If you’ve heard an iFi Zen stream, anything better under $1k?
My experience with the ifi Zen was with the original release when they would send the upgraded power supply, I think that's a BIG part of the sound and would for sure suggest upgrading as a must.  
Speaker positioning: why do audiophiles neglect this so much?
@mahgister uhhhhh what??? So, how forums work. If I quote your response, like you did mine, then the person is addressing you. If you make a general comment about the OP’s topic then you are addressing what the OP said.  I wasn’t talking to you,... 
Speaker positioning: why do audiophiles neglect this so much?
So I guess since not all of us can have the perfect listening situation then we shouldn’t upgrade our system at all?     Obviously making changes to equipment makes a difference in sound, so why not do it?  Because it would sound even better in a... 
Any Modwright CXN v2 owners who want to share their experience?
Is this mod worth it though if you use an external DAC? I’m not impressed with the stock DAC, my RME ADI blows it away.   
Ifi Zen Streamer plus upgraded power supply - the streamer to beat??
Hahaha, I joined here almost 20 years ago and I had the first year of the WRX at that time!   I was able to upgrade luckily over the years, now my name would be 991GTS!    
Ifi Zen Streamer plus upgraded power supply - the streamer to beat??
@soix  Spent a few days with the Cambridge. I’ll keep it short but I wanted to be able to use just the cambridge on it’s own since it’s supposed to have a pretty good DAC. So I listened to it on it’s own for a bit and thought it sounded great! I ...

What did you own before these? have always wanted to own something from Ty, such a good guy.   
Tekton Double Impacts vs the competition....
Hahaha nice work @danager  i still don’t get it, these guys dedicate so much time to talking trash about speakers and the people who buy them. Who else does that? Many of us state our preference about a product but we don’t dedicate years to pos... 
Ifi Zen Streamer plus upgraded power supply - the streamer to beat??
I didn't feel like running into the same issues I did before with the ifi unit, so I ended up getting a referb Cambridge cxn v2 off ebay the other day.   I'll compare it on it's own against my pi 4 unit w/rme adi dac and the cxn with the rme dac ...
