| Power cords: Kimber Kable Palladium Doesn't say much positive about Kimber power cables, now, does it?! | |
| SnubWay Question Thread "I see, said the blind man, as he picked up the hammer and saw" | |
| SnubWay Question Thread Mark - why not put a power inlet on top so the Puron can plug into the Snubway (or vice versa)? I'm running out of outlets! | |
| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread Sorry to be so late to this post. David outright ripped me off for a pair of $10K speakers. I thought they sounded horribly thin and emotionally un-involving. Best to do escrow; learned too late. | |
| Really Long XLR Sorry! Cables in LA will make any length you want. Get some good Mogami sheilded cable with Neutrik connectors very reasonably priced, quick turn, and proper workmanship. | |
| Affordable SS that sound like Tubes If you happen to read this far, Merrill Audio Veritas monoblocks are fabulous. They're my summer amps, and Allnic A-5000 monos provide some warmth during the cooler months here in NC. The Allnics are parallel SET 300B'S producing 25wpc. Both are u... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? To me it just doesn’t make sense to put a $10K streamer in front of a $4,500 DAC That's what I thought too. So I proceeded to upgrade my DAC - Lampi, BA LABO, Linn Klimax, Weiss 501, Pasithea, Bartok, and finally the Mola Tambaqui. With the Mola ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? BTW, having ROON built in saves many people the cost of a $1500. ROON Nucleus. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? One thing no one has mentioned is that the MU1 has its own iteration of ROON built into it. This was done to optimize communications and improve SQ. This was with knowledge and approval of ROON (it's ROON certified). This may address some of those... | |
| What is the Best Sounding Stand Mount Speaker in the world? Fleetwood Deville SQ (superior quality; the upgraded model). Per Steve Huff reviews, "The speaker has Soul". Absolutely. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Plus +1 for Sonnet Pasithea reference level dac Many great reviews like this : https://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?threads/sonnet-pasithea-dac-review-and-measurements.12382/ | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 A third recommendation for the Sonnet Pasithea. Auditioned vs. Tambaqui, Weiss, Holo May, Linn Klimax. Tambaqui was 2nd choice. With its Hermes streamer connected via I2S it's simply joyous. | |
| The Mars Volta. New Album. I like it. Does anyone else think it sounds like Flaming Lips doing the Chipmunks Biggest Hits? | |
| Another person going digital and full of questions Don't buy a combo streamer/dac. Dac technology is still advancing and you want to be able to swap it out when something significantly better comes along - and it will! Building a great digital system requires that you start with a great front end... | |
| Who, do you think, designs the best looking tube-based devices? Allnic Audio L-7000 preamp, black |
