| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? I can’t recall ever reading a full set of responses and agreeing so thoroughly with them. There is a lot of great advice above. A reason to treasure this site. I’d add to the many excellent recommendations: Herbie Hancock, Headhunters and Canta... | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! @bluorion i had an eye out for them, but didn’t see any. That said, I missed a dozen or so rooms. | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! I went back late Sunday and tried to buy the MBL C41 streamer at a demo discount. No dice. It was already spoken for. “But we’d be happy to find you a brand new one.” I don’t mean to sound snarky. They were actually quite nice to speak with. | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! @ckr1969 Burmester 232 Integrated Amp. It sounded great. Reminded me of my Boulder 866 — very clean and engaging, great soundstage and accurately conveyed instrumental and vocal timbres. I also heard the Accuphase E-800 and E-5000 integrated ... | |
| Pop album that has stood the test of time k.d. lang, Ingenue Gary Numan and the Tubeway Army, Replicas Jeff Beck’s Guitar Shop the first three Public Enemy offerings. | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! Almost forgot — best “low-cost” sound for me was the local pairing of Eastern Bay Speakers with LTA electronics (644). LTA was featured in several rooms. The newish LTA DAC and other gear sounded great in each of the different systems I heard. ... | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! I had a great day there yesterday with a friend. Highlights for me were MBL room (Twinbriok), Gestalt audio (with Colin playing a wonderful Johnny Hartman LP)(325), YG with Burmester (737), YG with Bel Canto (806), Margules Group (832), Vitus/Est... | |
| Help Deciding On New Speakers For Small Room, $10k budget Another vote for Joseph Audio. I have the relatively small floor standing Perspective2s. I love them in my smallish room. You can definitely find the pulsars at your price point, but might find a pair of good used perspectives or Perspective2s,... | |
| Capital Audiofest Coming Up! I’m looking forward to attending Saturday. I’ve had several sublime audio experiences there the last few years. Hoping for a few more on Saturday. | |
| Looking for my End Game Speaker I have a relatively small room and selected Joseph Perspective 2s. I love them. Relatively small footprint and not towering, they are sensitive to placement, but not overly so. Great soundstage and reproduce all types of music well, to my ears. ... | |
| Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck What a wonderful way to start my day! Thank you @stuartk ! | |
| SabrinaX vs JA Perspective2 Graphene Congratulations! I am still loving mine. | |
| I’m looking for an sleek integrated amp under $15k @aj523 I have and love the Boulder 866 w/DAC. No onboard phono. I don’t know about sleek, but it definitely has a look that I appreciate. It’s not particularly deep. If it wouldn’t fit in your cabinet, I’d imagine that some of the other candi... | |
| Should You Leave An External Power Supply On 24-7? I have an LTA linear power supply. LTA told me to leave it on 24/7. | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC I heard it at CAF as well. I thought the room sounded great, but like the poster above I can’t suss out the sound of the DAC apart from the system. That said, the system sounded very musical to me. Not harsh; no glare. I could have stayed in t... |
