| Yes, another audiophile at a crossroads story and request for advice Thank you both for your insights and suggestions. My understanding is that one of the major headphone shortcomings is their lack of a “realistic” soundstage. That and comfort issues in long listening sessions. The organically accurate sound i des... | |
| How rare is an audiophile @sagur80 unfortunately, I do suffer from the audiophile afflictions you mentioned. Being an engineer, i cant help but analyze my system for its weakest link or to think about what my next move should be to improve the sound of the music i love so ... | |
| How rare is an audiophile OP here. After a long day hard at work, I’ve finally had time to read everyones thoughts on the subject. So far, it appears most think we are indeed a rare species perhaps approaching endangered status. I’m in that camp also. I live in Huntsvill... | |
| Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align Nils Lofgren “Keith don’t go” from Nil’s Acoustic Live album. An amazingly good recording of a live concert. | |
| Favourite Guitarists Wow, i just scanned all 4 “pages” of contributors to this great thread and did not see a single person mention jazz guitarist Chris Standring! i love his artistry, plus he writes the music for all his songs (including orchestral instruments that ... | |

| Loudest Sound Ever? STS-107 Space Shuttle launch from astronaut family viewing stands approximately 3 miles from launch pad. The low frequency sound waves were so powerful, you could feel your internal organs vibrate and the higher frequencies sounded like a loud cra... | |
| I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond! Steakster, I’d love to know which LPS(s) you would recommend for my digital front end components based on your experience. | |
| I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond! Thank you all for your insights, suggestions and advice.I talked to the tech support guys at RME about cable and power supplies. In regards to my question about using an LPS, they wrote “Thanks for choosing the ADI-2 DAC FS! RME does not recommend... | |
| I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond! Thank you for your thoughts and perspective (pi) soix!i just am not sure if the investment in something like an SBooster for the Lumin (which voids its warranty) and a Teddy Pardo for the Nucleus should and would make a big difference. So many peo... | |
| Tube virgin looking for tube amp under $3k +8 for Primaluna and i agree with the reasons previously described to consider it. Here’s a used Dialogue HP Integrated for $3,600 https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649628037-primaluna-dialogue-premium-hp-integrated/I bought mine direct from the... | |
| Lumin D2 upgrade with external DAC? Thank you tuberist. I have thought of that option too but is another ~ $1,500 above what i was looking to spend. I will keep it as a plan B though. | |
| Looking for a new integrated amp +1 for the Primaluna wsrrsw provided suggestion. If you like the tube sound, this is a great way to get started on that journey. I auditioned the Sphinx v2 and found its sound rather thin. Not so with the Primaluna which sounded “organic” to me. | |
| Mid Range Streamer DAC recommendation help requested! I’m another sold on Lumin customer. The D2 is a perfect match feeding Tidal/Roon to a Primaluna Dialogue HP Integrated providing great music i enjoy for hours on end with no ear/brain fatigue. That is one true benefit of being “banished” to work a... | |

This was its first year of production, which is typically a no no, but after reading Road and Tracks review which commended Porsche getting the... |
