Recommendation for a modern Duntech Sovereign 2001 replacement
@audiotroy have you ever heard big Duntechs or the Tekton Ulfberts?  I've owned the Moab and I can definitely say they don't touch my Duntech Crown Princes or Black Knights.  I highly doubt the Ulfbert is much different given the MUCH more attenti... 
Considering buying a used Gryphon Diablo 250
Revitalizing this old thread. I'd be interested in knowing what your friend sold his Diablo 250 for.  There's one for sale near me for $6k and I'm having trouble finding a solid sales history to know what these sell for on the used market.     
Large amp fan for Classe CAV150
I guess I'll go back to using it in 2ch mode with 150wpc..  Classe CAV150 amp for sale in DFW!  
Large amp fan for Classe CAV150
dmlaudio i think the 21db is at its lowest setting and is basically silent.. But YES you can hear it when its on full blast.  These are best used in a closed cabinet or closet if you're going to ramp them higher than "low".  
Large amp fan for Classe CAV150
I know i know..  I did a little googling and read a couple of places that it was "Classe approved" to bridge this amp with 4ohm speakers but maybe "approved" doesn't mean smart. Let me ask you this then.. What is the danger here?  Just heat?  Or ... 
Large amp fan for Classe CAV150
The AC Infinity is 17 inches wide and the amp is like 19x21.  The AC Infinity would sit squarely on top of the aluminum top plate which is almost solid.  All the heat is on the right and left sides so I wanted something that would extend that far ... 
Mcintosh MA-7900 home theater bypass with subs - not doable?
I ended up not trying it but I think the answer was to use the pre outs.  
Dynaudio customer service ignoring me
@missioncoonery because no authorized dealers sell this speaker brand. These are old woofers for a pair of Duntech speakers.  I have spoken to the President of Duntech and he is no longer able to get these either.  You can't get a dealer to give y...

Yeah matching with another brand is practically impossible. I might be able to match with the newer version of the driver Dynaudio MW 182 but it's still different and John Dunlavy was very particular about his use of matched drivers for these spea... 
Dynaudio customer service ignoring me
@grislybutter I started off that way too then nothing.  I've left voicemails, emails, no call backs anymore, no feedback.  I say no feedback, I'll get a response like every 3 months just saying "the order is in" etc. But I need to know what that m... 
Dynaudio customer service ignoring me
Yeah, apparently there are 2 guys in the Dynaudio sales department in the US, Mitch and Michael. I guess they consider me small fish and their time is better spent on larger customers.  I guess they're assuming I'm not someone important in the ind... 
Lumin T2 with Anthem STR preamp signal going through both DACs?
Why do you have the Classe DAC if you're using the lumin?  What's the purpose of keeping it in the chain?  
Lumin T2 with Anthem STR preamp signal going through both DACs?
@bwguy  I sold the Lumin. I wanted to try separates so I went through a couple of iterations and ultimately decided on a Bluesound Node 2i streamer into a Denafrips Aries ii DAC.  Is this "better" I'm not sure.  Honestly, I'm tired of people sayi... 
Bluesound Node or Audiolab 6000N
I find BluOS to be the best app / computer interface, even better than Roon. It feels the most like the native Spotify/Tidal/Qobuz app.  I use the Node as a streamer into a Denafrips Aeries II which i think is a nice upgrade from the internal DAC.  
Bluesound Node 2021 DAC - I sold my Denafrips Ares II
Audiophiles will always tell you what's most expensive, new, and interesting is "better".  Few of them are honest enough to admit they too can be deceived.   A very significant portion of the population also think Kim Kardashian is hot because th...
