Puritan 136 vs 156 for simple system @temmple - Go for the Puritan… | |
Innuos Zen mk3 NG and Zenith mk3 NG introduced at Munich Wow. The Innuos Zenith MKiii went up 300%? I’m sure they’ve made some important upgrades, but I wonder how much better it is…? | |
Puritan 136 vs 156 for simple system @temmple - Our fellow posters are making a lot of sense. For me, the Puritan was a final touch, final edit purchase. I’d labored over my selection of components and felt everything else had been dialed in. Finding the speakers that deliver the... | |
Puritan 136 vs 156 for simple system @temmple - I actually have both. I started with the 136 and ended up buying the 156 too. Firstly, the Puritan product up-leveled my musical enjoyment in both of my systems. They are both solid products. For your system, listed above, I think a... | |
Decware Sarah 300B Amp? Hi Everyone - I appreciate everyone’s feedback. I’ll respond over the next few days to many of the posts, as I have some follow up questions. It’s clear this is a knowledgeable group I can learn from. For the moment, @njkrebs - wanted to address... | |
Fern & Roby Raven iii @bobheinatz - Did you end up purchasing those Raven Three speakers? If so, would love to hear your impressions. | |
Older Power Cables @classicrockfan - I was agnostic about power cables before I actually did some experimentation. My point of view was “I don’t know enough about the science to have a strong pov on whether different power cables would make a difference.” Now th... | |
Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium @hanki - thank you! Might be too much of a project for me, but it’s good to know the cable can be enhanced. | |
Back to the DAC @blisshifi - Can you elaborate on the NOS filters? How would you describe what T+A is going for in terms of sound? | |
Back to the DAC I second the vote for the Merason Dac1. It’s a stand-alone Dac and offers a balanced, detailed yet very musical presentation. It’s a Dac to consider based on your stated parameters. | |
Streamer and Dac ~$4.5k for Vinnie Rossi, Dynaudio system @cold_pillow - I also have the Dynaudio Heritage speakers. I rotate them with QLN Prestige 3 speakers, which I also love. I don’t have any desire to explore other speakers at this point… The Dynaudio Heritage speakers are wonderful, but need to be... | |
Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium @hanki - Can you share what improvements you experienced with the Furutech NFC connectors? | |
Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium One additional comment before I provide everyone more detailed comments after more prolonged listening: I installed the Kimber Kable Palladian PK-10 in my second system (Luxman 590axii, Buchardt s400 MK2 speakers, Gold Note DAC/Streamer, Lessloss ... | |
Music first or sound first? I’ll go first. Speaking for myself, I invested in my system because I’ve always loved music. I think there are many people in the world who are indifferent to music. There are those of us, however, whose lives have a soundtrack to them. We ass... | |
Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium I just installed a Kimber Kable Palladian PK-10 in my reference system. I was able to find a used one. It’s connected to my tube power amp… I’ve been using a cardas clear beyond cable. I’ve always been happy with cardas clear power cables. I ho... |
