Quicksilver Headphone Amp @arafiq wow. You described exactly what I hear from the Arya. "Hefty, lush and rich".I’m getting that sound using the headphone output of my Hegel integrated, (which actually beat my Burson Conductor V2+ headphone amp), so I can’t imagine how much... | |
Quicksilver Headphone Amp Wow. Such glowing opinions of the headphone amp.I have the Hifiman Arya which is 35ohms.All of the glowing reviews I hear of the Quicksilver headphone amplifier are with higher impedance headphones such as the Sennheiser.Does anyone have positive ... | |
Need speaker cable JW Audio. Like Anticables but better. I'm selling my 10' pair for $49 | |
Primaluna EVO 300 Integrated or Separates? Charles, LM has been on my radar for some time now. Maybe one day I'll pull that trigger. | |
Primaluna EVO 300 Integrated or Separates? @millercarbon I had the Raven Nighthawk MKIII in home for audition two weeks ago. I was not impressed. VERY noisy, high noise floor, lots of humm and hissing out of tweeters and in midrange drivers. I’m guessing the tubes were not tested or listen... | |
How Do You Live The Audiophile Life To the OP...The best advice I've ever heard (and I wish I heard this years ago), was:It all sounds fake. Just pick your favorite kind of fake. | |
Switched From Tubes To SS???Glad You Did??? @freediver glad to hear.I have been LOVING my Hegel integrated. That said, got the itch for tubes again so I decided to try a Raven Nighthawk MKIII integrated. The manufacturer claims that its 20 watts will sound like 100 solid state watts. I've ... | |
Best DAC for around $2,500 or less So many current dacs of today sound hyper detailed and not natural at all. Get yourself an r2r DAC or something like the Yamamoto that I have. In my opinion, it sounds more like real music. | |
Best DAC for around $2,500 or less Find yourself a used Yamamoto YDA-01.Was around $2,400 NEW.Get one around $1K.LOVING mine. | |
Have a problem with my JOB INT - how to contact company for service... Oh, I misunderstood. I had the 225 amp as well... Twice actually. Should have kept it... Twice. Lol.Love my Hegel though. My system has changed so many times since the last Job product I had so it would be impossible for me to make a comparison ag... | |
Have a problem with my JOB INT - how to contact company for service... I sold my INT a while ago. I currently have a Hegel Rost which I love. I'm curious though...1) Job is being resurrected?2) Job has a new integrated out? | |
Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC I sold the Spatial Audio M3 Turbo S speakers. While they did some things very well, in the end they just weren’t for me.I replaced them with a pair of Nola Contenders. Much more natural sounding. I think they’ll be lovely with the Yamamoto and Rav... | |
Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC @charles1dad Basically, yes. I was using the Hegel Rost as an all-in-one (DAC/PRE/AMP). Let me tell you... This thing is a killer piece. I’m really not comfortable with selling it.The Raven Nighthawk has not arrived yet. I received two emails from... | |
Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC @charles1dad Oops. Sorry. Meant Duelund. I have a close friend who is very handy with audio equipment/ soldering, etc. Maybe I’ll ask him to do it. Where did u purchase them, may I ask?The Yamamoto will be fed into a Raven Audio Nighthawk MKIII. P... | |
Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC Well, I’ve just acquired the Yamamoto YDA-01 DAC and... Wow. So natural sounding with beautiful tone. I’m floored. I have no patience for current DACs with their hyper detailed sound. The Yamamoto is so easy to listen to and brings incredible joy ... |
