| Klipsch Cornwall IV I got my pair of Cornwall IV's last week, and am still breaking them in, but very impressed. I have been a long time Devore fan, with dabbling with various Harbeths, and others. I like to swap gear in and out, including speakers. That cannot be... | |
| Do different streamers really sound different when using an external DAC I bought an auralic Aries g2 last year, fully planning to return it when I proved to myself that it would not improve on my Sonos connect to my metrum pavane. Much to my surprise it was a very nicely improved sound, with noticeable improvements in... | |
| Dirac use while still keeping my DAC? It looks to me like the minidsp devices are dacs, and would mean I can’t use my current dac, and even my preamp would be not needed. Do the minidsp devices take in a digital stream, output a “room corrected” digital stream which then goes to my d... | |
| Starting to get interested in tubes Don’t be stuck on preconceptions when it comes to tubes. You will find the obvious increased naturalness, resolution, and transparency will make you reconsider your speakers. Your tube amp choice will drive your speakers, and then you will start... | |
| Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes Agree with Iwin on the Sylvania metal base 6sn7w’s. Most of the others are splitting hairs, but these are a clear step up. | |
| Power Cord Suggestions REF 5se Get the sain line. It is what arc uses. I have two and have tried many. They simply increase the positives without changing the signature. | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? Second the falcon ls3/5a’s. I have a pair hooked up to a pair of audio note l4 monoblocks which are 40 watt el34 amps and the falcons are really spectacular in my small room. The Devore o/93’s have not turned from facing the wall since I got the... | |
| Audio Research Ref 6 SE I assume the complainers have a HUGE problem with Sony, Denon, etc, for updating their products annually, as opposed to a minimum three year interval as ARC does, right?i also assume they would be happier with many different versions of... lets sa... | |
| Which network streamer (without dac) After several satisfied years of using a Sonos connect into a high end system (metrum Pavane, ARC reference, etc) I decided to see if I was missing anything. I bought a G1 planning to return it if I was not impressed. It is still here. Quite a ... | |
| Any steel 14” to 16” speaker stands out there? Yes I will give them a call. I recall visiting them a couple decades ago when I lived in Florida. | |
| Any steel 14” to 16” speaker stands out there? Corelli thanks,Yes, lots of stands out there 8” tall, and I see that they are considered jbl 4429 stands, but I am looking for steel stands 14” tall that support 62 lbs. | |
| Any steel 14” to 16” speaker stands out there? Yes I find stands in the 20 inch range, but that is too tall. I need 14 or 16 max. I can’t believe there is nothing available other than having them made custom... | |
| How come Horn + woofer designs are not more popular? I just bought a pair of jbl 4429’s to check out after seeing several reviews online. Curiosity got the best of me. I did not imagine they could disappear like my Devore’s but they do. They have zero horn effect. And they are super musical. No... | |
| Get your First Watt SIT-3 now? I received my Sit-3 and fresh out of the box it was pretty rough, grainy and lacking in detail. But with some hours on, WOW, what a transformation! I am only at maybe 10 hrs now, but very impressed with it and even though I have a return offered... | |
| Get your First Watt SIT-3 now? I have one coming to me, serial number 3937 ordered this week. Not sure how that relates to your number 107. |
