| ???YOUR Personal Favorite???Why??? Yamaha NS5000 .... run by a mix of different electronics ....It is an engineering masterpiece and a work of art ( unique, there is nothing else like it). I have never heard instruments sound as close to the actual unplugged instruments i play. If... | |
| A brief review of GR Research Bully A couple of things. IMO, The OP tried to do the impossible in the beginning, no passive speaker was going to provide decent bass at low volumes, and IMO the only way to get even bass at low volumes is to get 1 or many powered subwoofers. GR makes... | |
| A brief review of GR Research Bully Wish they would use higher end finish and have remote for the sub. In case you didn't know, you can paint over the duratex finish... a rustic wood or whatever. Not sure if the sub section includes a line-in which could accept a separate line-o... | |
| analyzing sound @jrdavisphd Are you not able to just determine for yourself the quality of recordings, which recordings do the audiophile 'parameters' well, etc? You need some other guy to make a playlist for you with artists and tracks you may not like? What i... | |
| What exactly is PRaT??? Some guys may be conflating what is baked into/inherent to the track/recording itself (instruments, notes being played, etc) as aome accomplishment of their gear. Such a track may seem to have great prrrrrtttt on all kinds of equipment (because in... | |
| what amp, streamer, preamp to buy $2500 You don’t need an external dac with the Wiim Ultra. Get the Schiit Saga 2 Class A preamp ($279) and connect the Wiim to it. Run the Schiit preamp into a Parasound A23. However, it would be a much better idea to get a Schiit Vidar poweramp new ($80... | |
| gr research some MORE of my projects and experience w/ them part 2 I had a couple of sony sscs5s for causal use in my deck/sunroom, tried the GR upgrade on it and was shocked by what i started to hear....moved it to my main listening room for a while. A few of those would probably make a nice budget surround musi... | |

| Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing? I found the welcome back song fellas and it's a good one. Diplo - Dance with me https://youtu.be/1dJFk3PP6MY?si=5yC24WnOLiMvux-8 | |
| Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing? I wouldn’t call them scientific, but they do have their own sound in my mind. One of the best "scientific" attributes of Magico is the power response. The extremely wide and even dispersion makes these speakers throw an excellent image to a wide ... | |
| Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing? The problem here is that there are too many poor made records. Clean sounding speakers show the defects in the original record and often make it unlistenable. This is what some refer as "too accurate" or "clinical". The solution is - choose what ... | |
| Speakers for Gryphon Diablo 120 Klipsch, Focal....crappy speakers, but, it will do the zing zing zing...bring some light into the Gryphon darkness (I suppose). If that zing wasn’t enough either, get a Schiit EQ and turn the top end frequency knobs all the way up/light it up...f... | |

What tad and technics are able to achieve with 1 box (how about throwing a top notch sacd player in it too, if you like)....some others need 15 ... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? I have not contacted Mike Moffet via Head-fi web site to ask why he does not use a clock, but I do not have any concerns about Schitt DACs supporting a clock. @yyzsantabarbara dCS: "In a dCS system, the DAC can act as the system master cl... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! There are very few subwoofer make/models that integrate to a higher standard with Mags. Other than that, it is a great value w.r.t price vs fidelity levels obtained......for dudes who don’t have to deal with 3 dogs and 5 cats (Mag abusers) runnin... |
