Finally received my SimAudio Titan back!
Just ran into this topic. Thanks for sharing. I have a Titan 5ch myself, since 2002. It’s about the only thing that I haven’t replaced in 20+ yrs. I love this amp. It’s good to know that Simaudio is still supporting legacy products. After reading... 
Wireworld Platinum Starlight 8 USB
Received my 0.6m about 2 weeks ago. Have had over 200 hrs and it’s an outstanding cable, well worth the 5 or so month waiting period. I demoed other usb cables (AQ, Curious, Nordost, Oyaide and a $10 generic usb) during that time and the only othe... 
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor
Looks like the Bryson SP4 might be the best of both worlds but that $14K price tag is hard to justify.  
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor
@caphill @rshad0000 Thank you so much to you both for a very thorough response. It’s been a big help. As much as I would like to have Atmos, I really don’t have the space and I’m pretty satisfied with 5.1 audio surround with my Classe for now. I w... 
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor
caphill,Thanks so much for your insight. I assumed that the lyngdorf would be better than my classe when it came to HT, especially with Room Perfect, which I know will make a significant difference in my room. As much as I want Dolby Atmos, I real... 
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor
Caphill and rshad000,I’d appreciate any opinions on the Lyndorf’s 2ch performance.My plan is to update my Classe ssp800. I currently have my Aurender a10 into the Classe/analog bypass, therefore using the a10’s dacs. I’m quite happy with the resul... 
Can you live with your current speaker until you die?
I’ve had my Dali Euphonia ms4s for over 12 years now and there’s still nothing I would change about them. Can I live with them the rest of my life? I probably can but ya never know what the future holds. :) 
Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ?
@caphill,Thanks for the info. You are correct regarding Atmos processing on the Sigma mkll. Not sure why I thought it didn’t. $6k retail is definitely easier on the wallet than the $10k Lyngdorf but I’m more inclined to get the Lyngdorf based on t... 
Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ?
Agree on all points regarding the SSP800. It’s a hi-end preamp with stereo bypass which I’m using when listening to my Aurender A10 server because I find the dacs on the A10 a bit better, but the classe’s own are fantastic and can’t be beat with t... 
Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ?
Classe SSP-800. 
HC Power cords for tight spaces -- unicorn hunting?
I’m pretty much in the same situation as I don’t have much room behind my rack and I hate cable clutter. I spoke to Richard of Shunyata months back regarding retermination options of an Alpha HC pc. Needed to make it shorter and from a 15 amp to a... 
Just Got My Oppo 205!
Oppo makes/made fantastic 4K bluray players. Best in the market. If you’re serious about 2ch, you should look elsewhere I think. 
Oppo 205 for TV viewing?
db,Yes, but wanted to see if there was an appreciable upgrade using the 203’s video processing. None that I can see though.  
Oppo 205 for TV viewing?
My display is a pioneer kuro so no 4K at the moment. After reading this thread I briefly connected my FiOS cable box to my 203’s hdmi input last night. There didn’t SEEM to be any discernible differences a/v-wise between the oppo’s hdmi input or d... 
Best Shunyata Power Cord for.,,
Supposedly no break-in is needed on the new NR PCs. Needed around 50-75 hrs for the 2 HCs to settle in my system. You’re correct about the refined sound with the Shunyatas, I’m pretty happy with them now. I’m currently looking for a 1.25m HC so I ...
