| Bacch Dsp, True stereo? @nonamesleft4me My number one problem with System, so damn complicated to operate. A good question you have raised | |
| Used tube preamps, Cary, AR, Aesthetix, Wells...........or? Don't Capacitors deteriorate over time and negatively impact sound quality? So buying used sometimes may not be a great idea | |
| I often notice that people who have open reel decks and/or tube equipment are nicest They have to be nice because dealing with all the reel to reel frustration and lack of available things to listen requires a certain amount of tolerable skill. and Dealing with people as we know is incredibly challenging. | |
| 12au7 tube? @audiojan You have a nice system. I use telefunkens and hope they will last a really long time. When I read your first comment it seems like you're being kind of cheap. Why are you limiting your purse string in this area.?? I don't like trying... | |
| Balanced vs RCA preamps @atmasphere Clearly with such a long distance for a cable, a balanced XLR cable makes sense. RCA connect going out that long is never really a good idea. Interesting speakers horns are deserving of a look next time I buy a speaker | |
| Balanced vs RCA preamps @atmasphere Amazing commentary you have. I bet you have a really really cool system. | |

| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? get schiit preamp new. So much better opportunity in my view. | |
| I find myself "tuning out" anymore.....is the magic fading? There’s a great album by Timothy Leary titled - turn on, tune in, drop out. It's carried by qobuz. Maybe this would be helpful. | |
| Subs? I like it when I can feel the tanks approaching on a battlefield. Main speakers can't do this very well. Make sure you secure all the picture frames on the walls. I love the 804s. And all other the stuff you have too. The sub or subs will be... | |
| Does a good power conditioner reduce need for power supply upgrade? @knownothing A great question about power supply. you have an interesting system with a very strong emphasis on Power supply all kinds of stuff you’ve got. Comfortable room. I had a blue sound streaming Device and upgrading that made a lot of ... | |
| Favorite Album Cover (picture or art on the cover) @mitch2 The ease in which you express details related to your favorite album covers and how you describe your system, which is awfully impressive is admirable. | |
| Got Innuous, now a DAC chord Worth looking at. I had a blue sound node and it was nice but the quality was not that great. I'm sure that was a dramatic change. Choosing the right dac Will be very important to making older music sound good. I used a lumen x1 streamer/d... |
