Your journey with lower-watt tube amps -- Can a kit be good enough? I think it’s important to realize everyone has different hearing ability and ways they enjoy their music. Do you sit in a chair that’s perfectly positioned and analyze each aspect of the music and wonder if it could be improved if you just…..Are y... | |
Tweaking Your Speaker Placement Tiled floor. Even the rubber/cork/rubber feet I have the stands on slide easy. Probably not the best for acoustics though! Lol | |
Mutec Ref 10 Nano and MC 3 USB Thanks benzman. Will do some research on the Ock. | |
Needing DAC Advice I had 4 dacs at one point of varying “levels”. The Topping dl90, Cambridge modified by ModWright with tubes, Audio Note and Rockna Wavedream. The Rockna was a game changer for me. Was better in every regard compared to the others and really woke u... | |
Mutec Ref 10 Nano and MC 3 USB Thanks Oddiofyl. Seems to be the general consensus is good. Wish I knew more about streamers with clocks as good as the Mutec. At this point I’d rather just upgrade that but I have no idea if streamers have the quality of the Mutec. I don’t want t... | |

Aric Audio and my system Good luck with the review Aric. I’m sure it will go well. Glad you’re loving your amp jtcf. Which amp did you go with? Hang in there evank. I’ve seen amps and preamps come up from time to time on Aric’s site. Just check in every few days and be ... | |
Aric Audio and my system Thanks for answering evank Aric. Saves me scrolling through the old emails! Lol | |
Aric Audio and my system And Charles, you are so right regarding the bits are bits debate. Anyone who could sit and listen to the 3 dacs couldn’t possibly agree to that statement. The difference between the Topping and Cambridge is quite noticeable. The difference between... | |
Aric Audio and my system Thanks Charles and Carlsbad. I’ve learned so much from the experience and can only imagine what others that have doing this for many years have experienced. Evank, I believe Aric listed my upgrades on his Facebook page. I know the caps were upgra... | |
DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend Having followed this thread while shopping for a dac, it opened my eyes to some great options. I did some research and ended up calling Scott. After discussing what I was looking for, he gave me some advice and I ended up with the Rockna Wavedream... |
