| Shiit yggdrasil I have had a PS Audio DirectStream DAC now for about 18 months and still love the unit. One thing I really like about it is that firmware upgrades improve its performance (in my experience these sorts of upgrades usually only modify the features)... | |
| Integrated Match to Focal Spora No. 2 I have had a pair of these wonderful speakers since mid September, auditioned them with a Naim integrated (at one store), and a McIntosh C50/MC452 pre-power amp combo (at another), which to me sounded smoother, so I bought the McIntosh separates, ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD I have had a PS Audio DirectStream DAC now for about 18 months and am still discovering new sounds in my 44.1/16 files. I had to send my media server back to the factory for a repair, and since my streaming services don't have all the albums I en... | |
| Subwoofer I am on my third setup with sub woofers. I find you must have patience to get them properly integrated into your music system. But once done, they add so much to the sound of the system, they take the great sound from the main speakers and make ... | |
| Subwoofer doubts: crossover setting for 60hz speakers Fedocable,Every time I've added a sub, or subs to my system, I've had all sorts of challenges getting them to integrate properly.My last struggle was integrating a pair of JL subs in a new, larger "man cave", where the room had all sorts of obnoxi... | |
| solid state gear- leave on? Many years ago I worked at a professional recording studio where they left their (all solid state) equipment on 24/7. When I asked the most senior engineer about that, he said it was because there were way too many things to power "on" in the mor... | |
| C-22 not selling I've noticed things seem to be slow to sell lately. | |
| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Tomtab,Heck with the naysayers. This hobby is all about enjoyment. If you enjoy these speakers and they bring you happiness, you are much better off than the negative people who post their ugly opinions. | |
| Which CD\SACD? I said I wouldn't have another CD player, sold my McIntosh MCD500 on Audiogon, as I've been using a media server...but the server hard drive packed it up, is back at the factory being re-imaged or replaced, so I thought...since I have an external ... | |
| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Back in the late 1970's early 1980's I worked at dealers which sold Klipsch speakers, I actually met Paul at an audio show in DC on year, very interesting guy!I sold a lot of this generation of Klipsch speakers, not so many Klipschorns (people nee... | |
| WARNING - USE UPS FOR SHIPPING RATHER THAN FEDEX I've used both and have never had a bad experience with either, with one exception.When I sold my NAD Masters Series components (3 cartons), shipping from Maryland to Colorado, the buyer could only accept and sign for the shipment from home, after... | |
| JL Audio e112 sub vs. JL Audio Fathom 112 v.2 When they first became available, I purchased a pair of F113V2's, probably would have been just as happy with F112V2's, really excellent subs. I had a Velodyne before that, great sub as well, but the JL Audio's just seem more "precise" to me. | |
| So how many people are using subwoofers I agree wholeheartedly when Bob Reynolds says:" Utilizing a sub, any sub, is all about the setup".I'm now on my fourth or fifth setup with subs and in all cases it's taken a while to get them properly "integrated" in the system.A few months ago I... | |
| Raidho D3 vs Magico Q3 A few months ago I ended my quest to upgrade my speakers, auditioning models from these two brands in the process.Before listening to the Magico's, the salesman asked if I preferred "analytic" speakers or one's which were "musical". I'd never hea... | |
| looking at mcintosh pre-amp c2500. Can I do better for the cost of a Mac? Last year I upgraded to a McIntosh C50 pre-amp and MC452 power amp, yes, I know a lot of audiophiles don't like "the M brand", but for several months, auditioning lots of speakers, that combination (to me) really stood out as being very "musical".... |
