Innuos Pulsar - Some Interesting Info for Innuos Owners
A new Innuos Pulse owner shared his initial listening impressions. Very promising to say the least.    
Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp
@atmasphere  The funny thing is you could execute this with the same number of tube sections as used in a traditional SET right now (three total, including the power tube). The reason you don’t see this is the fact that you have to build a negat...

@atmasphere  I am not an electrical engineer. I do listen intently when people who are successful at what they do offer their perspective and experiences. Israel  Blume is very accomplished with what he does and so is Aric. They both share the sa... 
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System
What are the similarities/differences between what those passive filters are doing vs. what the Network Acoustics passive filters are doing? Are they all basically the same sonically, or are there actual sonic differences rather than simply marke...

Definitely planning to contact Aric! Good idea! 😊 Charles  
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System
@sns I much appreciate your reply and explanation of your network path solutions. I am strongly leaning toward the Newtwork Acoustics (Probably their MUON filtering system) as an effective network noise suppressor. It’s very straightforward and ...

@lalitk  Thank you. Charles  
Network Acoustics Eno Streaming System vs SGC Optical Isolation System
Has anyone here had the opportunity to compare the Network Acoustics ENO and MUON in direct comparison or within a familiar audio system? Both seem to be very worthy  products and I’m curious as to the performance gap between them. That they’re pa...

@sns  Is your Netgear a modem/router combo unit or is it a stand alone router? Is it in close proximity to your server/streaner or distant and remote. Location? Charles  
A Word Of Thanks
Count me as another who did not see the other post/thread. Nonetheless , I am very happy that you received terrific news! A wonderful and inspiring way to start the new year. Charles

@aricaudio  With most SETs the driver is the amplifier’s downfall- not the power rating of the amp, or the 300B. Aric this is precisely what the builder of my Coincident SET (And speakers) explained years ago. The main limitation with some SET... 
Compact ~20WPC Tube Amp
@atmasphere Based on your comments your speakers are nowhere near efficient enough to work with your SET. Which leads me to suspect that the 96 db sensitivity rating is exaggerated or (More possibly) the speaker’s impedance curve and load jus... 
New Project RS2T transport
@lpretiring It’s a shame because sonically this transport even in stock form is a joy to listen to and can be enhanced to a higher level of sonic purity by adding a quality LPS like my Fidelizer Nikola II that I’m guessing this combo would comp...

@dhcod  With your budget you leave yourself with good flexibility in choices. I agree that Quicksilver amplifiers merit attention. I’d give Aric Audio a call/email. I believe that he could build a really nice quality amplifier within your price r...

@dhcod  Do you have a price range limit ? Charles
