| Modern Covers of Classics @jc4659 amazing recommendation. thank you. @ezwind +2 on Cat Power Sings Dylan. Have it on vinyl. It could, just could be one of those where the covers give a very close run to the originals... | |
| Borresen Loudspeakers I listened to the X1 with the Forte 1 in Dubai last weekend. Very good. For the size they are, they do surprise you. For the folks on this thread who have bought the X1- are you still enjoying them? Additionally, has one had an opportunity to lis... | |
| Modern Covers of Classics I started looking at covers recently. Created two playlists. One with covers only- multiple for a song. And one, where each original is followed by one cover- the one in my view is the best (for me). Both of them might not have the modern covers a... | |
| Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC @teajay, really enjoy reading your posts. I am relatively new to this- only about a year. And the first post of yours which influenced me was the one on Coda S5.5. I really wish I could buy it- but here in Dubai, where I am based- not possible. Wa... | |
| Close, but no cigar ... I would put Audio Note on this list for sure. I auditioned the Cobra integrated at home- the grip and tightness blew me away. One day will get to it. Mac keep on thinking about it- but find it a bit bulky for my space. Another one I have and love ... | |
| What’s your opinion about Dali speakers? My first speakers when I got into HiFi were Dalis- Spektor 6. Not cheap and not expensive for sure- around $1k. They weee paired with a Vincent SV200 and a Blusound Node N130. Now they are connected to my TV via an old Pioneer amp - in stereo and ... | |
| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC @helomech and @kingbr interesting to read your recommendation. I have the Eversolo A6 (regular) and got a Topping D70 Octo Pro. I couldn’t figure out if the sound improved or changed for that matter but I do really like the functionality of the To... | |
| Qualio IQ owners, still happy? @ozzy62 can I ask how much did you get them used for? also which country are you based in? I am in Dubai- trying to find them- used is going to be tough but still looking... regards Manu | |
| Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier Love the thread. I have an Audio Note P2SE from 1997 which I really like. But what really drove me wild is the Audio Note Cobra- just amazing sound. Tight. If you have an Audio Note dealership in your area, they will drop one home for you to liste... | |
| Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k Got to this post now. Almost a year after it started. Have been looking for a tube amp for some time. Recently purchased a Audio Note P2SE, love it. Old- 1997- surprising works super well. I didn't know I was buying a 1997 one - and am glad I did... | |
| Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz I use Tidal and Spotify. I used Qobuz on a trial that finished yesterday. I didn't renew it. My accompanying system is Blusound Node streamer with a Gato Audio AMP150 AE and Gato Audio FM15 bookshelf speaker. You can play high res from your Tidal... | |
| Need a new Class AB SS integrated...$2-3k due to hurricane In Class D I recommend the PeachTree Nova 300. I got them recently and they power these not so well known speakers Volent 3.5 Paragon easily. It has a remote and also a built in MM phono stage if that matters. in Class A/B would recommend the ... |
