| klipsh forte III purchase I would strongly recommend you bring some of your favorite music to a Klipsch dealer and spend some "quality time" listening to them. I used to sell Klipsch, had no reservations about doing so, but sometimes customers who took some time to listen... | |
| NAD C 275 Bee I owned several pieces of NAD equipment over the years, up to about five years ago, when I transitioned to PS Audio & McIntosh. I also have been enjoying a pair of Focal Sopra No2's since they were introduced.I find that the McIntosh amps are... | |
| Best Rocking Speakers 15K and Under I have a friend who listens to a lot of loud rock and roll and loves his Wilson Sasha W/P’s. They are very "revealing".I have another rocker friend who adores his Klipsch LaScala’s, but with those you might need a sub woofer, or two. From the Kli... | |
| Are you getting ridiculous offers from new members Dill,No, in that case we spoke before he made his way up to my house to pick up the unit, and when he arrived, he decided not to honor the price we agreed on via our phone call.After I told him I wasn't selling to him, he actually had the audacity... | |
| Vinyl VS Digital ap_wannabe,I've had a DirectStream DAC since they first came out, and one thing I've learned about digital is that the quality of the AC power makes a significant difference to the level of detail and the sound quality.I used to have a PS Audio P1... | |
| PS Audio uber dac From the PS Audio DAC forum, it DOES sound like Ted Smith is working on a two box unit, one with the digital stuff in it, the other the analog. So, this rumor might actually be true! | |
| Speakers on speaker stands-isolation ideas? I put some self-stick felt pads on the top of the stands, under the four corners of the bottom of the speakers, that seems to work well...in addition to filling the stand's upright with sand. | |

| PS Audio customer service is excellent About 3 1/2 years ago, I took a "leap of faith" and purchased a DirectStream DAC from PS Audio, and haven't looked back.Over the years I've purchased a P10 Power Plant, a PerfectWave transport, a DirectStream transport, and just upgraded to a P15 ... | |
| SACD I would say that, in my setup, most of the time my SACDs do sound better than the "regular" CD, MQA from Tidal and high-res downloads, but not always.Most of the time the mastering seems to produce a more "musical" result, but not always. With ju... | |
| RE: Suggestions for Tidal Streaming problems caused by Internet Connection Problems I have similar "pause problems" streaming Tidal on a Dell Windows10 Pro machine, thought it was the Windows or anti-virus updates, not Tidal, but maybe it's both?Whenever I decide I'm going to use Tidal, I get the Dell up and running and leave it ... | |
| Which is better - Hi end CD transport or Music server into DAC? As I learn more about digital audio, I'm appreciating that while "bits are bits", the timing of those bits when they arrive at the DAC are very important to the ultimate sound quality. DACs do have clocks as part of their design, to "re-clock" th... | |
| Is time coherence more important than dynamics: Gallo versus Green Mountain When I was going thru the (year long) process of auditioning speakers, at one shop the salesman asked me if I prefer "analytic" or "musical" speakers. It was an interesting question, one I hadn't thought of in those terms before. My choice was "... | |

| How Many Versions of the Rogue 99 Preamplifier are there? Two weeks ago, we DC Hi-Fi Group members took a "field trip" to visit Rogue Audio. These are some of the nicest people you'd ever meet. I'm sure if you reached out to them via email or the phone number they post on their website, they would be h... |
