| Has anyone NOT listened to their system for a long time? Wow all this talk about young kids and lack of being able to listen make me think of getting a vasectomy!!!! These are the things that have competed with my listening lately.Listening or watching to MSNBC’s entire evening of shows- lots of drama t... | |
| TTWeights closing their doors I own a ttweights momentus supreme and really love it. It sits on a Halcyonics type active anti vibration platform and feel like the combination is excellent without having to reach into the 6 figure turntable category.http://i290.photobucket.com/... | |
| What's your OTL tube amp experience and suggestion? Also don't forget using an auto former like the Speltz to pair with a wider variety of speaker impedances. If anyone wants to hear the Atma-sphere gear in NYC give me a shout out. TriodePictureSound. | |
| Best cable for short monoblock runs? I use a very similar configuration, very high purity copper, fine strands to mono blocks on a very short run 3 or 4 feet. I’m actually using quad wire from the BHKs 300 amps dual binding posts. (Mid/hi, bass, super tweeters and subs- each with its... | |
| 2017 amps - $10K to $15K who is on your short list? Jim, If you want to hear the BHK 300 mono's and you ever travel to the NYC Area, I'm a dealer and would be glad to meet another A'goner and let you have a listen in Manhattan. Especially with NOS tubes and good power conditioning, I feel the hy... | |
| PS Audio NEW Huron Firware upgrade. 😩😫😩 I’m liking Huron as well. I haven’t gone back to Torrys to test, but with Huron and some new iconoclast cables from believe it or not Belden (which I’m going to be a dealer for - ps audio dealer as well) I’m literally having a Sufjan Stevens conce... | |
| Can I Live With A Hardwood Floor? Hi goofey. I think the tri corners where the walls meet ceiling will definitively help if you clap and hear echo slap. I sent you a PM. | |
| MQA according to new Stereophile "loudness button" and "tweaking EQ in presence region" What was schite's view on DSD? I've only heard it decoded at length on a native DSD DAC,(the DS) so pehaps any negative experiences with DSD material is because of hearing it on PCM based decoders. Even on the Ds I've read people describe (wit... | |
| Can I Live With A Hardwood Floor? Just my thoughts.... For Echo slap an easy way to treat is corners at celings. I used to use room tunes triangles , but I’m now looking for larger coverage. i used to have quad 63’s and had them on hardwood floors with no issues. Now I’m using Tad... | |
| Let's Play UpMarket DownMarket...The audio game Thought I'd revive my old thread and see if new observations come to light, especially as companies like magico have introduced some fantastic lower priced gear. I will say (a more budget conscious line which I sell) has created some fantastic hig... | |
| MQA according to new Stereophile "loudness button" and "tweaking EQ in presence region" Tim, thanks for your opinions. I sent you a PM but it would be interesting to make a NYC comparison. Have Audiogon'ers even done a NYC meet up? | |
| MQA according to new Stereophile "loudness button" and "tweaking EQ in presence region" Brian,Thank you for chiming in on this extremely important topic. Your perspective is clearly the most enlightening of all those I’ve read, even statements of various hardware companies who have worked with MQA but found deficiencies. To answer an... | |
| MQA according to new Stereophile "loudness button" and "tweaking EQ in presence region" No one’s debating music streaming vs. Owning. The issue for me is that MQA Maybe doing something other than just providing hires music in a smaller file and correcting d/a Flaws, but playing a sonic trick on us by basterdizing the master files, no... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? Chrono... Those Torus units have always tempted me but I've never heard one. Where are you located? Are you considering a second? I know the more subs, the smoother the response in room. | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Anyone in the NYC area have these cables? I just received a full set of Belden Iconoclast cables to try and would love to compare an excellent traditional material with Teo's cutting edge materials. Very exciting time in the world of cables. |
