| Audiophiles, Music, and Equipment: Can We Be Both "Conservative" AND "Progressive"? A little disclosure here: I am part of a number of "unite" and "depolarization" groups -- including my own.

| Audiophiles, Music, and Equipment: Can We Be Both "Conservative" AND "Progressive"? Ahem, in the context of audiophilia indeed...

It is a very pompous arrogant position that a scientist or a higher level engineer (masters of phd and significant field exp... | |

| I’m getting a hum in my integrated tube amp and it’s bugging me alot @roxy54 , #1 He doesn’t have the right amp for that speaker (not to mention a whack a doodle hummer for the ’small price’ of only 16k!)...could be that he went tubes after the Magico started brutalizing ears. Nevertheless, the magico needs seriou... | |
| I’m getting a hum in my integrated tube amp and it’s bugging me alot Huh? 16000 dollars for this humming junk?! (I just looked it up). Return quickly to botcher Roger and get your money back. Thereafter, get some smooth liquidy class A solid state Pass Labs to keep that Magico well behaved. | |
| Have you found your "End-Game" speakers yet? I have. And it feels so good!!! There is no such thing as "end game" for speakers. There are just way too many designs with all kinds of sound signatures at various pricepoints...all with their strengths and weaknesses at any pricepoint. There are a whole bunch of models release... | |

| Magnetar I now own a Magnetar UDP 900. It is a real boat anchor. The transport is eons faster than anything else on the market and as a music transport is all you could ask for. I can’t speak to the DACs as I do not use them. What really sets it apart is ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Dude, every recording you own has already gotten eq'd out the wazoo. There is no "purity" in any recording you heard in life. So, feel free to eq until your ears are pleased. Some sasso headed mastering technician doesn't get to decide what should... | |
| Luxman D03X vs D10X If someone already has a D03x and is looking to move up the luxman chain, I would recommend cross-shopping with something like the TAD D1000/mk2 in a similar price bracket. Brands like Luxman try to implement/retain a certain type of house sound a... | |
