| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update @mewsickbuff your post is somewhat confusing as you reference warranty. Are you saying Denafrips refused you access to the upgrade of FPGA because you are the 3rd owner? I think that’s what you are saying. Did you directly ask them for FPGA update... | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update @mewsickbuff how is this relevant to FPGA update? Also, it’s actually pretty nice of Denafrips to extend the warranty to second owner. A lot of companies will not extend past original owner. Still not sure why this is on FPGA upgrade. | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update Finally had time to update the Venus 2. Have not burned it in so just posting initial impressions. Bigger soundstage as others have reported. More 3 dimensional. Pretty much same as what others have reported from Pontus. Question is do I love it o... | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update @stevebohnii I also have Venus2 but waiting to hear feedback from others. So far I’m on the fence based on other’s feedback. Especially about going back. | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @overthemoon There seems to be a lot of love for the Audio Research by Sonus Faber owners. I’m wondering if that will be my next move. Maybe Tube integrated. | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @jeffstrick Hi Jeff, thanks again for sharing your infinite wisdom. This room is shared with my family so putting a diffuser on the front wall is not an option. I’ve also had extensive conversations with Vicoustics over the weekend at the Montre... | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @jeffstrick Hi Jeff, I do cover the screen for listing sessions. I also have a panel on the back wall to absorb bass buildup. What other suggestions other than YouTube do you have? Thanks | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @overthemoon It’s actually incredible how much value is in this 340. I do agree the 600 is better but only marginal but and big jump in price. I have a friend with some Audio Research gear so maybe it’s time to beg him to bring over for a demo. ... | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @ghdprentice Thats pretty insightful and refreshing. You are probably right, significant spend to get to the next level. I considered the INT 25 but that might also be a sideways move. | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @winoguy17 I do believe the room is a limiting factor, yes. But since I can’t change that what would be another way? I’m pretty sure even in the perfect room that one set up over another could sound bigger or smaller, deeper ect. I’ve also h... | |
| Simaudio 340 i hard to beat for the $$ @jeffstrick Hi Jeff, what would be your recommendation for scaling up the sound stage? I’d be interested to hear your advice. | |
| Galion TS120 @dz13 I run Sonus Faber Minima Amator 2, Lumin U1 mini and Denafrips Venus 2 DAC. | |
| Galion TS120 I had both versions for home demo. Both are great but the special edition is much smoother than the standard edition. The sound stage is deep and wide. The top end has very nice air and details. Class A is far better than the A/B. Sorry Thomas, th... | |
| STREAMER I’m using a U1 mini and have been experimenting with different power cables. I can definitely hear a difference with my AQ NRG Z3 on the U1. More defined soundstage, tighter bass. I only wish I had more AQ plugs to try on my DAC and Amplifier. The... |
