| ARC amp differences. ARC service is great don’t be afraid of that. Besides they are very reliable, if you can even with a small room try to get the 160s you can always run them in triode mode, more power not necessary means you will listen louder but you will have mor... | |
| dCS Bartok Apex vs any similar priced DAC @seadog137 I used to own the DCS Bartok Apex and as some people love it for me it was to clinical and you need to work around a lot to about brightness I switch to Lampizator Pac2 and I am the happiest ever. Amazing DAC way more analog, it’s not... | |
| What do/did you do for a living? I am a baker, just a very good one 😂 | |
| Should I Sell My ARC REF 6 and Get A Pass Labs XP-32 I will definitely try to upgrade the speakers first. You have a great system and I am a big fan of Wilson Audio. Sabrina’s are good but if you can step up with the Sasha’s your system will improve way more than the pre amp for sure. I own the Sash... | |

| Digital add ons-airlens, matrix spdif, Innuous Phoenix net, Phoenix usb I am not familiar with all your equipment but I am very familiar with steaming and Innuos. The Innuos net was a great addition to my system. Mostly eliminated all the noise you get from the internet. It was a great addition to my system and becam... | |
| TRAVELING TO JAPAN! Recommendations for shops for cartridges? @lewm all good man, you are right the one on akihabara is not that good I visit that too but the one I recommend is on Yurakucho, that one is very centric very close to Gynza. I bought so many good things there and a lot that I could not buy becau... | |
| TRAVELING TO JAPAN! Recommendations for shops for cartridges? @lewm I think it depends on the store, since they have several, but the one I visited had a strong game with HiFi and prices were 50% lower than US, obviously mostly Japanese brands for example Luxman, which I don’t think its for kids since prices... | |

| Streamer Selection - Thoughts Requested Please! reading the comments, also Roon it’s a great idea because your iPad or phone becomes just a remote control and the streamers would do all the work. I tested Auralic vs Innuos (A/B) and we all agreed Innuos was better. Good luck again ... | |
| Streamer Selection - Thoughts Requested Please! I own Innuos and I love it, still if you don’t have a use to ripped CD’s I would recommend the server since you can save Tidal playlist and sounds quality improves a little and it gets way faster than just streaming. Aurender is definitely good ... | |
| Shunyata Omega Speaker cable and interconnect Very useful information, I am about to switch my speaker and interconnects cables and I am considering Shunyata as an option, however I’d like to hear opinions on Transparent Opus which is my number one option and AudioQuest Thunderbird, I heard t... | |

First make sure that your DAC has an high output voltage 6V it’s ideally but no less than 4V, this will make your requiere less watts to drive those speakers. Second... |
