| Aurender N10 display issue I have never had the problem on my Aurender, the colors match the album covers. I would also ask Aurender, they have been very helpful to me on other questions I had. One idea, it sounds as if when it gets warmed up it starts to act up. Do you hav... | |
| McIntosh MC1.25KW vs Luxman M-10X @stereo5 Not sure why my opinion upset you so much. I have owned McIntosh and it always sounded best, in fact really good, with bright speakers. I'm not saying you can't use it with say Harbeth's or other British speakers for instance, but they ... | |
| Think there'll soon be a successor to the Chord Qutest? There are a lot of DAC's out there that need updates. PS Audio just did theirs. Chord probably has one in the works. If not, they won't be around in the future. Evolve or die. | |
| Alan Parsons - From The New World Sounds like Alan Parsons, so quite good, love is a bit strong though. Drop a tab and enjoy. @fuzztone is on target. I do like 01 also. | |
| McIntosh MC1.25KW vs Luxman M-10X Although I never owned Wilsons, I have owned McIntosh and Luxman and I agree with audiojan, it would make the Wilson's dull and lifeless. You need a very bright speaker to get the best sound out of a McIntosh. Just an opinion having owned many... | |
| The difference between an Audiophile and a Stereophile? Thanks for mentioning Nada Brahma - I consider myself well read, but have never heard of that. I always like learning something new! So thank you. To get back to your original question, the best sound I ever heard was the first "High Quality" sys... | |
| Streamer/CD ripper I had a Rotel CD player for many years, it sounded so much better then other players on the market when I got it (early 1990's) I had 5-600 CD's when it finally died and my dealer who I trusted told me not to buy another CD player but to get a Blu... | |
| Stereophile Scamming Subscribers? @jtuba Yep -they said $18 was the new rate, I told them to cancel and it went to $9.00. I am sure magazines are the same way. Just play hard ball, they need you more then you need them. | |
| I can't believe this. I once sent a Sony separate in and after calling for 8 months and getting the run around, they finally admitted they lost it. I still believe someone there fixed it and took it home as it was a rare piece. They did reimburse me with a check, but o... | |
| Where does "MidFi" differ from "HiFi" or "LOFI"? I look at it this way: at what point do I hear a difference in SQ between two products. So there a multiple levels, not just three. I had a $500.00 DAC, and although the $1-3k DACs sounded different, and in some cases better, I was not really impr... | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. Waiting for Columbus - Little Feat. Can’t wait to pick up the new remastered LPs and CD set. ……And all the boys there at the bar began to sing along….. | |
| Japanese Luxman Integrated Amps I brought a used Luxman 590AXII and love it, but I brought it in the US with 120V. As @audioman58 and others stated, there is risk not just in buying it, but in selling it. I doubt you'll save any money in the short or long run. I've not heard of... | |
| I have an idea for an audio product what should I do? You are way ahead of yourself. Put your idea in writing, draft up a "business plan" that describes the product, the users for it, possible benefits, expected cost/profit. If you haven't done that and you haven't put it down your idea in a clear wr... | |
| Vintage worth the time to explore? @mulveling Yes, Grado headphones are either liked or disliked, I haven't found too many people in-between. Same with many speaker brands. I totally understand. Stax are great. Have never listened to ES, but will have to search them out. | |
| Vintage worth the time to explore? Why not open back headphones like Grado's for when you want to play it loud? If you don't want to try that, And I also second: 1) Not buying anything older then 10 years. 2) Looking for a system with a loudness button/control, or at the least t... |
