| REL Vs SVS for 2 channel music listening @chisaz Don't forget the mouthwash! : )+1 on you post! Enjoyable read, to boot.I’ve been missing out, a lot. Try an REL, you’ll be shocked (in a good way). | |
| Auditioning Elipsa SE tomorrow, getting my ducks in a row, am I missing anything @doitwithlife Thanks! Dealers have been taking it on the chin. Distributors, importers and manufacturers are undercutting them. Audiophiles are doing end runs around them. I’ve recently received terrific support from a few dealers and they have br... | |
| Auditioning Elipsa SE tomorrow, getting my ducks in a row, am I missing anything There may be, but apparently not worth giving the business to? Hopefully the OP has valid reasons for not doing so and is purchasing something from the dealer where he auditioned the SFs. | |
| Auditioning Elipsa SE tomorrow, getting my ducks in a row, am I missing anything @doitwithlife Congratulations! Hope the chickens sleep in more often as you will be up late listening. : ) | |
| Oppo Gone - Now What? FYI. Happened to be at my local Best Buy for appliance reasons. Walked over to their Magnolia unit and asked if they had the 203/5 in stock....and they do. Regular retail pricing. | |
| Oppo Gone - Now What? @lalitk Thank you. I'm not sure, given my needs. The tougher issue is forecasting future needs. At this point, I will let it play out. The market is usually good at responding and is way smarter than me. I remember the fury / flurry as plasma we... | |
| Aurender N10 or Auralic Aries G2 (+ Auralic G2 Master Clock) I’m not impressed with the Aurender gear.Have you tried the N10 or G2 in your system? If so, what were you "not impressed" by? Thanks. | |
| Oppo Gone - Now What? @lalitk Congratulations on jumping on board with the 205.The Thread's Opening Question is a good one.I picked up the 205 (I was in the pre-release group) and returned it after a two week evaluation. I have the 105. Had the 95. Had the 83SE. Not s... | |
| Power Cord for Pass Int 60-Under 1K used @krelldog If you are considering the 'SE' version, I'd get the 'SX' version in for a listen. Considered a major step up. I realize your budget but since it's one PC and it's for an integrated amp, I'd push for the best you can make happen.I have... | |
| A Millennial recounts their journey from low-end to high-end audio. @samosaOnce I found out that I didn’t have a Hifi system (because I couldn’t tell the difference between an MP3 stream and a 16-bit FLAC), I’ve been seeking better audio quality. It started with better headphones, then eventually getting an Amp/DA... | |
| Isoacoustics GAIA question @tonediary I completely understand. It's a big 'hit' especially relative to the 2s. If you do not have any isolation (other than the feet/footers/base supplied) I highly, highly recommend some form of isolation. My opinion - speaker isolation is ... | |

| Anybody Listen Voxativ? @cto007 Will you be attending the Lone Star Audio Fest? I'm not 100% if I can make it, but if I do it would be great to meet in person. Your posts have me interested in being exposed to the Voxativs. | |
| Oppo Ceasing production I thought it was an 'April Fools' joke so I ignored the thread posts...but it looks like the joke is on us Oppo-istas. It's just hitting me.... I'm not sure how to react to it. | |
| Tekton Impact Monitors @teajay Thanks for another great review.The following from your review speaks volumes:"You get the speed and velocity normally only found in horn speakers, which gives you the sense of "aliveness" of real music, without the colorations of those d... |
