| Anything better than 1.7 Maggies Wait for a used pair of 3.7's to show up.. I'm sure you'll be able to buy a pair for $4K | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? Bottom line with tubes is that for the most part real NOS stuff is the best.. problem is that as regards tubes like KT88's the real ones are crazy expensive.. of course I'll wager that a quad of real MO Valve or GEC KT88's would out last ANY of th... | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? I also wanted to mention since I believe in full disclosure, I very recently became a Proac dealer.. I don't think that invalidates my opinion that the Ayon and Proac's work beautifully together.. Proac's and tubes have always been the way to go. ... | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? Sionlim- I'm in NJ.. FYI if you haven't ordered the tubes yet.. my favorite tube source and a fellow I've bought from for years, and who is as honest as they come is Andy Bowman at Vintage Tube Services http://vintagetubeservices.com/ | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? I'll bet those Silverline' sound sweet.. $7500.00 they should too :-) Not a real fair comparison to the D2 at $3400.00 or the D1 at $2600.00 though. As for the D1 sounding a bit richer vis a vis the D2, stand height plays a pretty important role i... | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? Cardas Clear, and Clear Bi-Wire jumpers, and Clear interconnects. | |
| Thunderbolt DAC & Thurderbolt NAS? Thunderbolt is a super fast USB type connection. A NAS that has a Thunderbolt i/o isn't going to be of any benefit on a ethernet network, which is how it will be used to support a Sonos system.. As for USB 3.0 Dac's none yet that I know of.. | |
| Best Sounding HDD for NAS Who knows.. I think trying to A-B HDD's is a road to insanity.. Then throw in different NAS boxes and.....BOOM.. that's the sound of your head exploding.. | |

| Music Servers & Sonos. XiVA Music M8, W4S ? Start out with what we've discussed, you can always add more.. The Sonos is the best muti-source, muti-zone system out there.. if you want to go better SQ wise for you main system down the road, there's no reason you can't. Doing it this way will ... | |
| Music Servers & Sonos. XiVA Music M8, W4S ? As for a NAS I'd recommend the Netgear RNDU2120 or RND2210 the 2120 has faster processor and dual gigabit ports among other features but the 2210 would also be fine and is a bit cheaper. Both are very easy to setup..pretty much plug and play, read... | |
| Music Servers & Sonos. XiVA Music M8, W4S ? First off I would not buy any music from iTunes, period. It's all compressed mp3 quality, at the best 256K .. yeech. It's actually cheaper to buy the CD from Amazon.. if you sign up for their Prime membership 2 day shipping is free.. and there's a... | |
| Ayon Spirit 3 what speaker combo will u recommend? I think with the restriction of only a foot or so off the back wall that a smaller stand mounted speaker like a Proac D2 , or even a D1 will work out better..placing a speaker that close to the rear wall in addition to diminishing sound stage dept... | |
| Music Servers & Sonos. XiVA Music M8, W4S ? Jamesw20 I'm waiting on my MKII upgrade.. From everyone who gotten it I'm very excited, sounds like a big upgrade to what was already very good SQ. | |
| Music Servers & Sonos. XiVA Music M8, W4S ? The PS Audio will work the about the same as Sonos does with iTunes.. In that neither really "works" with iTunes as I think you're thinking. Sonos looks to the iTunes library and copies an index of it to play.. The PS Audio also uses "shares" I un... |
