| Chord Dave or Ayre QX5 Twenty DAC??? Well, it looks like I'll be selling the QX5. I still love it and may keep it just for the great headphone amp as I listen a bit to some very high end IEM's and also a top ZMF can. The Memory Player should be here in a week or so and I had the DA... | |
| DIY High pass filters for Vandersteen Model 5A Carbon's? OP, if I was you, I would immediately get in touch with Richard Vandersteen himself. You can call Vandersteen and ask to speak with him if he doesn't answer. Tell him your story, age and that you want to learn. I can PROMISE you that he will hel... | |
| DIY High pass filters for Vandersteen Model 5A Carbon's? I'd honestly purchase them from Vandersteen or used. I realize some folks build their own, but they were voiced with the components that Richard designed for them. What do you mean they didn't have a Bass cabinet? Are you saying you just purcha... | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Thanks Matt. As you know I have always felt the same way. You know how concerned I am to potentially run The Memory Player direct into the new Vandersteen mono blocks IF I decide to get them as I can't afford those AND a preamp (would then sell ... | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 1) OMG...talk about being full of yourself. I am opinionated to say the least, but I'm not in Bo's league. lol. The irony is that I use only AQ cabling. I have used Onkyo in the past. Pass makes some good gear. I like Ayre better, but I also do... | |

| Why do I see more Vandersteen model 3s vs model 2s for sale? Yes, the older guys were like that for the most part. Mark Levinson couldn't do that since he never designed anything. Tom C did all of that and Mark marketed and sold the stuff, lol. | |

| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD welcome back buddy. Glad that it was a great trip. Elizebeth, I too have heard that marantz. I think most equate it with their mass market stuff. Most have not heard their reference gear which is very nice sounding. I like warm and not 'hot' ... | |
