| Any thoughts or recommendations regarding the Emotiva SE8 or REL subwoofer? A Rel will fill out the soundstage besides giving you lower bass. It’s a very pleasing effect. No experience with the Emotiva. | |
| SPL Audio I know what you mean. I only have about five-hundred records and they are a pain in the ass to move. The digital side sounds better anyway and all I have to do is find the mouse. | |
| SPL Audio Selling off the entire analog side. I’m too old and crippled to hunt and flip records. The Phonos is a fantastic phono preamp, the best I’ve heard. | |
| SPL Audio My Phonos is listed in the classifieds. Like a baby bird. Cheap, cheap! | |
| SPL Audio You can stream Tidal without Roon but Roon adds a lot more body to the music. I think Tidal sounds better through Roon than JRiver. You probably Tidal by itself with whatever computer you have.use. I was using a cheap stock Hewlett Packard before ... | |
| SPL Audio Two months into s800 ownership. It definitely works better with Tidal and MQA than Qobuz hi-res. Tidal has beautiful, spacious, ethereal qualities and tight bass. Qobuz sounds turgid and dark. Both through Roon. Don't know why but that's how it so... | |

| Tannoy Stirlings on the way! Question: Are any of you using the 3rd binding post? If so, did you find 3-wire speaker cables, or are you using a separate wire? Do you find it actually gives your Tannoys a quieter background? Higher end van den Hul speaker cables were designe... | |
| Audioquest Firebird Zero I owned the Thunderbird Zeros for a couple of years. They are miles ahead of what the Silversmith Fideliums will do for you. I had the Fideliums at home for a couple of weeks. They weren’t that great. Nice bass, huge loss of high end detail with t... | |
| SPL (Sound Performance Lab) - Professional Fidelity series? I've had a new Elektor playing for about three days and I have to say that it's startlingly good. I had idea what my equipment was capable of. In the immortal words of Dr. Channard, "And to think...I hesitated." | |
| Phono Preamp suggestions $2000 (pre-rabbit hole tire kicking edition) SPL Phonos. | |
| VDH The First vs The First Ultimate MKII I found the vdH Orchids had a lot more detail than the First without being harsh. No experience with the MKII. The Seconds I had were a little dark. |
