| Try this free tweak - Speaker Slumber Party! Erik, please, please don't add to the things that need tweaking and long, critical listening sessions.I'm worried about the fabric of the pillows. Cotton over silk? Synthetic to eke out the best bass. Sub fabric frequencies....Egyptian cotton over... | |
| Spend more money on the amp or the pre-amp? Outlaw Audio RR2160 Stereo Receiver $799 | |
| Warm, lush and dark ... Dac up to 1.2K Why "warm, lush and dark" for a DAC??? I would think that preserving the fidelity of the recording is important at the source. A tubed stage further down the chain makes much more sense to me. | |
| AURALiC Aries price reduction There is wide coverage in the 'audio press' of the G2 series being released in Sept. followed at some point in time by the G1 and G3 series. | |
| Aurender N10 or Auralic Aries G2 (+ Auralic G2 Master Clock) @emerald Any updates on your findings? |
