| New DACs High End Munich 2023 The T+A DAC200 is a great DAC. But great and superlative are two different sonic worlds IMO. Buy a DAC that you won’t feel the need to upgrade in a year or two. Then there’s the world of the Denafrips Terminator level of performance. You’ll be sa... | |

| How to tame a bright system? NPS-1260. | |
| OK, so I have to ask. Is this real, or is this a joke? NPS-1260 works. I was one of the first on this forum to be daring enough to give it a try. Nuff said. Enjoy. | |
| Is D for Dry? Class D... Class D sucks. I’ve said it many times. Dry and lifeless, sure. I’ve been weary of anyone stating that it can be really good. Short of being utilized for subwoofer amplification I had ruled it out pretty much completely. I mean, what could better ... | |
| Tube vs. Solid State Amplifiers I bought my Audions direct from Alberto. Had nothing to do with OCD Mikey. You don’t want to see what the fuss about is, your choice. Meanwhile those who know by direct experience, know exactly what I’m talking about. These amps are a game-changin... | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House I’m sitting here listening to the Audions and just so pleasantly satiated. For me, to sum them up in a single word it would have to be SATISFYING. I have sought realism, bloom, impact, imaging, clarity, emotional fulfillment over the past 31 years... | |
| Impressions of AGD the Audion MKII Mono Amps All one can be is delighted with the sound coming from AGD Audion monoblocks. I will be upgrading to the Gran Vivace monos because I do want more power but man, the clarity and richness is so satisfying to the ears, to the soul. You feel you are g... | |
| Tube vs. Solid State Amplifiers okay…dude you’re overly skeptical. Why don’t you audition a pair of AGD AUDION monoblocks to see what the fuss actually is? NO one amp or company is “best” but the enthusiasm from various listeners who were die-hard tube/SET lovers should tell you... | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? I have to agree that AGD amps really are that good. At the time that I demoed them I had an XA-25 and the SIT-3 (as well as Line Magnetic LM-508ia), I was already immersed in GREAT sound and yet these AGDs were something altogether different. I ha... | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? Well it’s been several months. Last time around I was touting the virtues of the First Watt SIT-3. I still do. It’s one of the most satisfying, listenable amps I’ve ever heard. Since then, I was able to audition the AGD Audion monoblocks in my sys... | |
| Tube vs. Solid State Amplifiers FWIW I wanted to add that the opposite can also be true as well, that a ss preamp coupled with tube amplification can be quite beautiful/satisfying...I own a Line Magnetic LM-508ia and when used with a solid state preamp (in this case the CODA 07x... | |
| Tube vs. Solid State Amplifiers I can attest to the “revelatory” experience when I put the AGD Audions in my system. For me, it was the clarity without being at all etched or harsh/strident. It was also the frequency extension and control over the low end with my high sensitivit... | |
| Class D amps that are superior to all or most? Same response as rdoc and mglik...still loving the Audions in my system! | |
| Synergistic Research Fuses vs cheaper ceramic fuses Experiencers and Negativists. Two camps. I suspect the first camp have better sounding systems. Why? Because they’re willing to simply TRY. Because they’re willing to experiment...That’s the only way to know for sure. It’s obvious by these posts w... |
