R to r dacs
Calvin,That was quite a review. Alvin may want to borrow a few lines.I had the Ares 2 for two weeks and had to sell it. My ears foundit a little too harsh. Great improvement over the DAC in Oppo 205.I wanted an R2R Dac with a tube in hopes it woul... 
Sellers: When do you drop your price?
If there are any glowing reviews of your item, include a link. USAudiomartis free. Not so here. Shark picks up pretty much everything so mostbuyers look there first.Maybe your question really is: "How do you price an item"? 
Ayre K-5xeMP vs. Electrocompaniet - EC 4.8 MK II, or others?
How do the KEFs sound with no Preamp?If you are still feeling as though something is missingI would be shopping for something else. 
Which amplifier should i buy
Those new Merrill Mono blocks with the Gan tech are getting great reviews. I think they have an INT available. Call Merrill. Smart guy.in NY or NJ. 
Klipsch Cornwall IV
This opinion is not about the Cornwalls but more on your source.Is the 105 your CD/DVD/Streamer? No TT or other I assume.If so before you buy another pair of speakers buy a separate DAC.For $750 -Denafrips Ares2-you will improve your sound much mo... 
Is this an right time to buy hifi?
I have a suit to be pressed. A beard to be trimmed. Gig Harbor HiFito visit. A wedding to attend Saturday. As the FOB most of my HiFi$went to service providers over the last 9 months.I did buy one build to order DAC. It was shipped as promiseda we... 
Any experiences with the Falcon Acoustics RAM Studio 10?
The Falcon 3/5A i have heard. Very good for small/near field listening.Why do anything else? 
Joseph Audio Pearl 3 to 20/20 Graphene Upgrade
I was told by a nationally recognized speaker designer that graphenecoatings are  being employed to strengthen the cone more than forany real sonic benefit. Now getting anyone to admit that will be a challenge.Maybe Spatial Audio's owner ? Clayton  
A strange business model for audio
It is hard to find any love for any piece if the company's CS is alsoa piece. Smaller company the better in my book. Then I look at mygear and have to admit that Tannoy is pretty slow to respond. PassLabs is as good as I could ask for. Innuos in P... 
Am I crazy? Definitely!
How any speaker works in your room with your gear is the journey.Picking stuff out of the blue is like walking into a pitch black room with three women in it and choosing a wife. You may get lucky and then you may get a divorce.The Heresy function... 
Gripped By Upgrade Fever
There is only one argument that should appeal to you.It comes from your own ears.  
AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House
Currently several SFAS members are auditioning  Merrill's bigger Mono blocks in their own homes.One member bought the smaller set prior to the Audition. The sample of the larger set has so impressed others that it seems a couple more will also be ... 
Need thoughts on how to Best Max SQ when Streaming?
Thanks. Noted. 
What is this feature?
The name should be-"Hey dumb sh-t I just saved your ears and your speakers". It is on my Pass INT25 and I appreciate it. Thanks. 
Tannoy cheviot vs Arden what should I expect from each?
RB,Where are you located? Dealers exist. I have auditioned the Cheviot.I believe the Arden is the model a notch up the line and comes with a 15"speaker. Cheviot is 12" as I recall and about $2k cheaper.If you listen loud and the room is not big yo...
