| Sunfire Classic Tube Pre-Amp Curious about the sound. So much of the early Carver equipment, well, not great. | |
| Looking for a great phono pre-amp in the $1000 or less range I have an ifi iPhono3 Black Label and have been very happy with it so far. Very quiet, very dynamic, and has a wonderful soundstage presentation. Not sure of course how well it will work in your system, but is right in the price range. Also, is v... | |
| Goodbye Everyone As someone relatively new to Audiogon, I have gotten an incredible amount of value from reading posts here. Yes, there are some that definitely fall into the gutter, but that is countered by so many that are informative, helpful, and are clearly f... | |

| For wi-fi streamers--a discovery to increase wi-fi strength Agree that the more you can take WiFi out the equation, the better. WiFi can be a tricky to setup and troubleshoot in general. I can understand not wanting to run a 45 or 50ft Ethernet if it can be seen and you don’t like the aesthetics of that, b... | |
| Blue Jeans Cable Iconoclast @navyachts Appreciate your thoughts. There didn’t really seem to be any topic from the original post, so just want to add my experience. Hope it maybe helps some others at some point. | |

| what amplification are you running with your Dynaudio Heritage Specials? Pass XA25. I've read plenty about how the Heritage Specials need a high wattage amp, but the XA25 in my room does everything I need. Completely musical and transparent. I have a Linear Tube Audio Microzotl pre and the dynamics are also wonderful. | |
| speakers for small room They were limited production, but I have Dynaudio Heritage Specials and they are incredible. Perhaps a used pair. For a stand mounted speaker, the bass is wonderful. Imaging, dynamics, timbral accuracy, are spectacular. And with any really terrif... | |
| Upgrading preamp. Best for under $1K +1 for the LTA unit if you can add a phono stage later on. Went from an LTA MZ2 as a line preamp to the Microzotl pre because I was so impressed. Imaging, dynamics, soundstage, all awesome for the money and as mentioned, David Berning designs are ... |
