older CD transport vs newer ones.
Was sold on streaming hi-res until I replaced my Cambridge CXC transport with the Jays’. Streaming still sounds great but something natural about the red books now. Both paired via I2s to Holo Audio May Dac. To think I almost got rid of the discs! 
Dual SVS PB-1000 Pro versus Dual Rythmik LV12F- does Servo Technology Matter.
I run dual Rhythmik F12’s along with two Rel T7i’s with great success in my two channel rig. All integrate seamlessly with my KEF LS50 Metas. Takes a bit of time and patience to get them correct, but evens out any standing wave issues. I started w... 
100W+ solid-state amps known for beautiful mids
Contact Steve,or Pat at SMc Audio and they will make you happy. I own a modded DNA amplifier from them and cannot speak highly enough of it’s performance as well as the down to earth, honest and professional customer service I have, and continue t... 
Some DACs I am Considering-Any thoughts?
Holo Audio. Owned and loved the Spring KTE. Now upgraded to the May KTE....my love grows deeper. 
Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes)
Contact Steve at SMc Audio. All the sexiness of tubes, without the hassle. He will work with you to create solid state nirvana. He built me an amp and preamplifier and I am very satisfied. 
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
The Metas are not a plug-and Play solution. If you are willing to take the time to find that system “synergy “ they are magical. If you don’t have the patience, go for the wireless mode, KEF has done it for you! The passive units are just not limi... 
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
I owned the original LS50’s and now own the new Metas. I am really enjoying the new models, for me KEF has addressed the short-comings that bothered me with the originals.  The Metas have lost the occasional “brightness “ in the treble without loo... 
Thinking about getting a R2R DAC
Holo Audio Spring-done 
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
Set my new Metas up this morning and have been listening for about two hours. Detail is definitely improved over the original LS 50’s. I am not experiencing any harshness in the upper frequencies-just a clean accurate, yet full and lush, natural p... 
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
I should receive my metas tomorrow. Having owned the original LS50’s, I am anxious to hear the improved version. There are things that these small stand mounts did for imaging and vocals in my small room that I miss with my current Spatial M4’s. W... 
Difference Between DAC Types
Another vote for Holo audio Spring Dac. R2R ladder in NOS mode-heaven, or DSD, or several oversampling modes-your choice. I have found different sources or recordings benefit from the different modes. I opted for the “Kitsune” tuned version and co... 
DAC Upgrade
I recently received the Holo Spring 2 -level 3 “KitsuneTuned” Dac. Very open , detailed and never bright. Am using the Singxer “tuned”USB to I2R converter with satisfying results. Check out Kitsune Audio for more info. Much improvement over The fi...
