| Jazz for aficionados I’ve been listening to Wes Montgomery this morning. What a great guitar man! | |
| Woodstock 1969, or 1967? I guess your days as a music reviewer were short lived. 😁 | |
| My Analog Journey - Opinions Sought While I still have two turntables (cheap) I got rid of 90% of my vinyl years ago. I do however still have a CDT that I use every once in a while to listen to the 2600ish CD’s I still have. I do have about 2200 albums ripped on a NAS that I listen ... | |
| Got Innuous, now a DAC I still have the original Pontus ll and it’s still has a wonderful sound to it. I’m looking forward to upgrading someday, but I’m not a a great hurry. Although I have had an eye out for a DDC. 😃 | |
| Class A\B or D for summer months (vs Class A) I recently made a screened in porch into a family room and we installed a Mitsubishi heat pump where the compressor is still outside and the cassette with the blower and filter is in the room. It’s kinda like a mini split, but separated into two ... | |
| Which inexpensive speaker cables... Mogami or Monoprice or Blue Jeans have speaker cables in your price range. All the best. | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? While I have almost no experience with PrimaLuna, they have at least 4 different, all tube integrated amplifiers you can check out. With tube rolling, you could customize the sound to one that makes you happy. All the best. | |

| Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers I am a new Sonus Farber convert. So of course I am going to tell you to check out Sonus Farber. I bought the Amati G5’s and really like their sound. Nothing shouts at me and the bass is good even at low levels to the point that I am using the s... | |
| A cable too perfect? Another vote for giving the cable more burn-in time before you change anything else. All the best. | |
| Merry go round In the last fifty plus years I have changed everything in my system more times than I can count. And as of right now, I’m close to my happy place. Improving my DAC is coming, but I am not in a huge rush to do so. I’m currently able to listen to m... | |
| got my PayPal 1099 /// what now? @welcher summed it up very well. | |
| Does You Subwoofer Settings ?? Because no two engineers mix music the same way, there is no one setting for subwoofers, but you can get close. That said, since I changed from KEF Reference speakers to Sonus Farber Amati speakers, I am finding I’m not using the one SVS SB2000 ... | |
| speaker upgrade fever I got rid of my KEF Reference 5’s because I thought they were bright and quite analytical and replaced them with Sonus Farber Amati G5’s. While the price is above your price range, I would still say to check out the Sonus Farber Olympica Nova ll ... | |
