| Why not? Classe provides a pretty good cable from DR Acoustics with the delta amplifiers | |
| Looking for Speaker Recommendations Look for a used pair of Rockport Atria. It would be out of the range but you can stretch a used pair of Atria II will blow the sabrina x away easily. | |
| Less Is Really More - Schiit's New Yggdrasil DAC - Less Is More MSB makes the best r2r dacs available imo. They are also made in USA. | |
| Chord DAVE DAC @jackhifiguy if you are planning on spending this amoun5 of money there are many other great dacs out there. I have been on a dac journey with many brands. Chord is good but there are better options imo. I went from chord to dCS with the Bartok ... | |
| Large speaker recommendation I agree with @ronboco the Rockport Avior II is a great option but they are $44k. The Atria II at $28.5k is a great option. | |
| My endgame system I think @ronboco I am at a similar spot right now. I decided to go with the Atria II and keep my JL Fathoms. The Boulder is great but an external dac will make a difference. I ended up with classe delta pre and Stereo paired with the MSB Discrete with the... | |
| “House” Character of Popular $20-$30k Speakers I would add Rockport to your list. I was in a similar situation upgrading from magico s1mk2. I auditioned the A5, s3mk2, Wilson yevette and sabrina x with the ro kport atria II. The Atria is a great speaker. | |
| Searching for an amp to pair with Rockport Atria II @jmeyers I had a pair of Octave MRE220 monos previously. I went on to a krell duo 300xd and have now landed on a classe delta stereo and am looking for a pair of the classe monos. My ultimate goal is to get into the new MSB 202 and upgrade mySB DI... | |
| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? Brandonhifi the Qutest is not designed to drive an amp directly. There if this is your intent I would look at the Hugo2 at a minimum as it has some form of volume control. The TT2 and Dave a designed with this use in mind. For my money the best i... | |
| Why People Like Tekton I have not had a chance to hear tekton in person. I most likely won't be giving up my Rockport Atria II to get a pair but yoy never know. | |
| AKM makes the best DACs I would recomend listening to somethiFROM, MSB, dCS, or Chord before saying the AKM is the best. I still own an SP1000 with the AKM 4497eq chip but it is bested by my Bartok, MSB discrete or Chord TT2 and Dave. | |
| Magico A5, Wilson SabrinaX, or PS Audio FR30? I would look at Rockport Atria II. I was looking st them send A5. The Rockport won for me. | |
| How does a REL subwoofer add dimensionality and depth to a sound system? I agree with hilde45. I went with JL Fathoms over Rel. They offer much more flexibility in set up. They have full adjustable phase to adjust for proper placement. They also have built-in room correction via eq. Another point for me was that they a... | |
| Headphones vs full range speakers I have owned both. I used to own what some would call the best headphone available.the abyss AB-1266 PHI TC with a formula s, powerman and dCS Bartok. I upgraded my speakers from Magico S1mkII to a pair of Rockport Atria II with pair of JL F110v2 ... | |
| Which DAC is better? Just go out and get a dCS Bartok and never wonder again. |
