| Thiel Owners Serial numbers are usually produced in order at a factory. Sometimes, there are changes in the build (e.g. crossover components) over time. Having consecutive serial numbers is typically an indication that the items were produced at the same tim... | |

| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) I'd also like to point out that when I give an opinion, whether one sitting in my room would agree or not (and I would put Tweak1 in the same light), it is my opinion without any financial incentives received from anyone in audio industry. It is ... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) " I just messaged tweak1, and I hope you get together and A/B the stock Voyager with your modded Voyager in each other's systems. There are many variables you discussed, so if you guys can keep it simple and constant, you can figure out what the... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) Just let me know when and if you're ready. No rush and no biggie. Just had a job over the weekend cramming the components into the back-up system. The EVS 1200 in that system had to sit in front of the entertainment unit and the little PC runni... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) Viber - btw - the link to the Purifi mods (which I suspect would be similar if not identical) and review of them are on the EVS website - http://tweakaudio.com/EVS-2/Purifi_amp_mods.html Ric also does mods to IcePower amps, including the Rouge -... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) All those things are better on the modded Voyager. It is just in another league. My friend thought I was crazy when I told him I'm buying it as my system sounded so good. Keeping the EVS though. Now in a secondary system. At some point (waiti... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) Anyway - this is to follow-up a bit more. Got too much to do to get to a video (I'm so far behind on listening to music I bought and I bought two more downloads today and won't get to them for a bit as I have a USB cable on the way as part of a t... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) Ric - you should know better. The (good) Mad Scientist feet are underneath and a 25 pound weight on top. I'm the one with the bad feet. Any recommendation other than my orthotics and Hoka Bondi 7s?:) OK - the rest of me doesn't look so great e... | |
| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) I put my modded Voyager in the system last night after listening via the EVS1200 to an agreed playlist with my friend over and I will just start off with quoting my friend's remarks after playing the first song about 15 seconds in on the modded Vo... | |
| Thiel Owners " cascadesphilwhich modded 83 do you own? I know that Oppo built a Special Edition 83."I have the regular 83 with the Modwright solid state mod (to all channels - in my old house at the time I had a Bryston SP1.7 as a pre/pro for my integrated AV... | |
| Thiel Owners I gave up disc spinners some time ago. Yes I still have them for video and extras (like a modded Oppo BDP-83 which gets little use but is there if someone brings a disc over - it is set-up to convert SACD discs to 88.2kHz and send it to my EMM La... | |
| Thiel Owners As far as disc spinners go (I'm into file playback), Oppo has an excellent track record (and I have a bunch of Oppo players still) but they the 105 will be 5 years old in a few months and who knows how much longer it will be supported. Besides th... | |
