| Retirement System Finally Completed: Impression of the Mola Mola Tambaqui +1 @smodking1 and @ghdprentice | |
| Retirement System Finally Completed: Impression of the Mola Mola Tambaqui I honestly don't understand why @audiotroy gets dumped on so much in this forum. Yes he recommends products he sells, but he always discloses the fact that he is selling them so no one is being fooled. Not to mention that his recommendations are ... | |
| any ideas? If the noise is constant whether music plays or not, AND it’s not coming from the speaker... that eliminates pretty much everything. It could possibly be a buzzing inductor, though that’s kind of reaching. By nature all inductors buzz so they’re ... | |
| Thiel Owners A pair of CS7 showed up on USADM. They seem reasonably priced at $2.5k, if you happen to be in Nashville TN that is (local pickup only). One wonders why anyone selling high-end speakers online would only show 3 vague pics of said speakers, none o... | |
| The Great DAC Mystery @shadorne Thank you for your post, very interesting! Theoretically speaking, would oversampling all digital signals to DSD256 and feeding that to a non-oversampling, DSD-only DAC (or at least a DAC with a discrete DSD stage) provide a workaround t... | |
| What exactly is PRaT??? I can definitely feel the toe-tapping quality in the Bombino and Chris Rea songs. At the same time, I can't disagree that Chris Rea was garbage, so it seems PRAT and crappy music are not mutually exclusive. I can feel no PRAT in the Stevie Ray Va... | |
| Room with glass windows as a walls. @OP you can generate convolution filters for your daughter’s room yourself with REW (open source software, free) and the aforementioned $100 mic. Then, instead of expensive roon or JRiver you can run Daphile (Linux-based, open source, free) on th... | |
| What exactly is PRaT??? the founder of Linn discussing the philosophic origins of his LP12 turntable Was it the Thorens TD-150 that Linn knocked off? 😂😂 | |

| Ideas for low cost amplifiers with gain control An old honkin 50 lb AVR from craigslist should facilitate your proof of concept for less than $100. | |
| ???YOUR Personal Favorite???Why??? I found the Dutch & Dutch 8c to be great-sounding speakers. Powered, so no worries about electronics. They may not be ideal if you're exclusively into soft century chamber music and hushed female vocalists, but if your listening habits are li... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? And people are concerned about the high price for dedicated "audiophile" streamers? Geez. @mclinnguy I don’t disagree with your point. This PC example was meant to be anecdotal and not a recommendation. In fact, you could build a very similar m... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? @yyzsantabarbara Here is a PC streamer that, in addition to supporting SFP, checks every audiophile box. Barebones price is 3900 € but I quickly customized it to 9660 €. It's a useful template for state of the art PC streaming though. https://gr... | |
| Open baffle speakers The R909s dont need it because of their design, but open baffles are capable of making a healthy amount of low end if you compensate for the low end drop with an EQ @phasey Why do Reference 909 not need EQ because of their design? As far as I r... | |
| Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? Supermicro is the first brand that came up. There may be less expensive options out there. |
