| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure It would be interesting to try the sit3 in a dual mono configuration for a more fair comparison to the sit1. All you need is a second chassis, power supply, and then you just move one channel over. Anyone over on the pass labs forum of diyaudio co... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Adding to my threads for future reference. A good and interesting read. Thanks. | |
| Thoughts on PS Audio Perfectwave DAC ? I owned one from 2011 or 12 - 2019 and really enjoyed it. I twice upgraded to the directstream dac and twice went back to the pwd. I added the bridge ii and felt that was a substantial upgrade over the other inputs. If you can get the package chea... | |
| A speaker audio journey over: Classic Audio Loudspeakers T1.5 Reference = End game I don’t know why you’ve gotten trolling about a really beautiful and amazing set of speakers and the superlative listening experience they provide, but somehow this site provided the worst it has to offer. @johnk I’ll keep you in mind right along ... | |
| A speaker audio journey over: Classic Audio Loudspeakers T1.5 Reference = End game Great writeup. I'd forgotten that these were on my radar and now I'll re-up by saving a usaudiomart auto search that'll run for two years. Hopefully some other owners chime in with their experiences (and the speakers they choose the classics over). | |
| Does Anyone Currently Make an Ethernet to I2S Renderer? And @djones51 I did read somewhere (maybe on ps audio's forums?), that you just need to increase the voltage of the i2s signal to push it further than the recommended 4" in the standard. No idea if this is true or not. | |
| Does Anyone Currently Make an Ethernet to I2S Renderer? @jriggy Yes, it was in a private email. Hopefully it is ok that I shared the thoughts. Can't say I liked the tone, but it's also a very valid and relevant opinion. I'd love to hear one of his dacs. The chips, ancillary parts, and power supplies a... | |
| Does Anyone Currently Make an Ethernet to I2S Renderer? I just hopped into the thread to note that I've also moved on from I2S and am just using an SPDIF connection to better effect. I was encouraged to try the switch after getting the following email in response to an inquiry into whether I2S could be... | |
| Does Anyone Currently Make an Ethernet to I2S Renderer? Magna Mano is another. I like my ultra. Unlike many, it comes with a beautifully built linear power supply...https://www.magnahifi.com/en/webshop/mh-he-pi2s | |
| SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency @vvcv Just a quick comment regarding switching binding post terminals. If you're getting in there and modifying the speakers and amplifiers, you might consider just replacing with wago lever clips instead (I use 221s). Why spend all the work energ... | |
| Bricasti M3 In the house @ddafoe Looking forward to hearing about the dacs. I did a dac shootout this fall, and comparing a lot of different chips/approaches was quite informative. I ended up with an audio mirror, and people wanted to tell me that my ears were wrong beca... | |

| is this the greatest live band of all time? Soo many bands out there. So much great music in little clubs from bands that never went pop. As one poster alluded to... sometimes you just get a great night where the band does exactly what they want and whatever form of a crowd is there feeds ... | |

| V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp One member here with a ds-2 (@wig I think) replaced his miflex output caps with the odams and felt that it was a substantial across the board upgrade. I replaced mine with duelund tinned copper casts and felt similarly. I also tried a number of ot... |
