| Primaluna tube rolling 12AU7 Notes Ok - thanks! | |
| Primaluna tube rolling 12AU7 Notes @jimmy2615 Nice summary - thanks! Which Amperex did you try? | |
| Denarips and Vinshine split Yes, I am also learning, and I think you are correct. Many users have reported sound improvement using external clocks and DDCs. Maybe the Venus II 12th-1’s superior clock justifies the price differential. It would be interesting if Denafrips re... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @agonomics-sf It looks like the main difference between the P15 and V12 is the clock. If so, and with current 10% off sale, wonder if P15 is one of the better values for DACs under $2000. Also wonder how both units would compare to the new LAiV H... | |
| Denarips and Vinshine split @pindac Any new thoughts regarding LAiV Harmony vs Venus II 12th-1? I noticed the Pontus II 15th uses the same resistor ladder as the Venus, and the main difference between the units is the clock. So I wonder how different the sound would be betw... | |
| LAIV Harmony @jackd Thanks for sharing your impressions. I too am considering the LAiV Harmony, and the closest contenders in my mind are the Denafrips Pontus II 15th or Venus II 12th-1. I mention the Pontus 15th because this new version appears to use the sa... | |

| Denarips and Vinshine split @pindac Thanks for sharing. I wish I could hear both the Laiv Harmony and Denafrips Venus. I noticed Denafrips reduced their warranty period from 3 years to 1 - I hope this does not mean the quality of the new units will be lower. | |
| LAIV Harmony Thank you @soix - yes, I did read his review, and was hoping to hear additional opinions from Audiogon members. | |
| LAIV Harmony Has anyone compared the Harmony to a Denafrips Venus II or Terminator Ii? | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? @otherworld74 I agree this is a concern; is this an indication that they are going to cut corners? | |
| When did you last update your Wifi firmware? @mikhailark Thanks for the tip on the Firewalla. | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? True - it is speculation at this point. | |
| EVS Music Purifiers - Amazed by how much improvement they make! Anyone else try them? I also would like to know. | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? Very sad news because Alvin has been instrumental to the success of Denafrips. |
