| Grimm MU1 vs Antipodes K40 @ricred1 My point is you will probably receive different recommendations, but only your ears can decide. Unfortunately, sometimes it's impossible to get a home audition. A good point, sometimes the highly desirable audition opportunity simp... | |
| Grimm MU1 vs Antipodes K40 Agree wholeheartedly with David’s suggestion. You may possibly get more feedback on these two highly regarded music servers on the What’s Best audio forum compared to this site. Charles | |
| New Project RS2T transport @lula I pulled away from watching college football for a moment to go pull the stock wall wart SMPS out of a storage drawer. It is 2”w x4.5”L x1.5”H. Despite its modest size it perfoms wonderfully with the diminutive RS2T. on the RS2T rear pane... | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? @atmasphere If the active line stage is good at controlling the interconnect cable it stands a very good chance of being more neutral than a passive device and possibly also lower distortion, depending on the passive device to which its compare... | |
| Silver Speaker Cables @soix I need a 20 amp rated power cable for my isolation balanced AC transformer to wall outlet. I wanted to use the Lavricable Grand but it is a 15 amp max power cable, thus the Vogue Audio. I have the Grands on my components. So, I have not co... | |
| Silver Speaker Cables @whistleraudio Once you reach a certain degree of silver wire purity is there a discernible audible difference in your opinion? For example 5N compared with 7N. I have a Vogue Audio 7N OCC silver power cable and it’s very good . But I feel... | |
| Which Transport or CD Player? I’ve clearly stated on this and other threads that both products are worth pursuing. I don’t have to denigrate Jay’s Audio products in order to support Pro-Ject products. I’ve no doubt that owners are very pleased with their Jay’s Audio CD transpo... | |
| Which Transport or CD Player? @mdonda Well, welcome to open format forum discussions. As is typical you are exposed to differences of opinion and experiences which is a good thing. My situation is the polar opposite of the previous posted experience. Precisely why I recommen... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers @fsonicsmith I can imagine that your Devore O-93s and ARC Reference-80S amplifier make a very pleasing and engaging pairing.The ARC Reference-6 preamplifier sure wouldn’t hurt any of the proceedings either.

| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 @budburma Based on your efforts, you definitely take power concerns seriously. I would give attention and heed the guidance of @blisshifi given his in depth familiarity of the Aurrender components. Charles | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @johnnycopy The Frankensteins are marvelous sounding but can be a bit hard on the 300b tube. I had two failures with the excellent Takatsuki tubes within a 5 year period. Admittedly I use my Frankensteins very regularly for long listening sessio... | |
| Another one (server) bites the dust! Aurender N10 vs. N200 Just knowing that between the two units that the N 200 has the superior power supply would make if preferable for me. Power supply quality is paramount to achieving good sound quality. I've yet to encounter any audio component where power supply r... | |
| Does creating a loom in cables in a system make a significant difference? @styleman I use a mix of different cables for interconnect, speaker and digital cables. I have no complaints. The music sounds great I would say your own results speak for themselves. Different roads do lead to Rome. Same brand cable loom has... | |
| Loretta Lynn has passed away @bluorion +1 Very long life and very successful career. God bless. Charles | |
| Elrog 300b vs we300b @johnnycopy In an earlier post I mentioned I had owned the EML XLS tubes for 7 or 8 years. I came across an old post of mine regarding 300b choices. At the time I made that post I had owned the EML tubes for about six months, so early spring ... |
