| Recommendations for Windows software to go with a Ayre QB-9 DAC I forgot to ask if anyone owns the latest player from Oppo? I have the UDP-205 Audiophile Edition and the Sabre DAC's that they use in it have received many good reviews. I was going to buy the Ayre QB-9 DAC but then I realized that my Oppo player... | |
| Recommendations for Windows software to go with a Ayre QB-9 DAC Thanks to all of you, nod to Kenny for the mention of Computer Audiophile website. I am curious how you would modify the PS on a computer? I have three computers 1 Asus laptop, 1 older desktop, and 1 that I just built for gaming. I don't really fe... | |
| PC or Line Conditioner With keeping the P10 and P5 in mind does anyone have an opinion about the P3? From what I read the P3 looks to be the same as the P5 just lower Total Wattage output at 750. It does have 8 outlets two of which are dedicated "High Current" outlets t... | |
| PC or Line Conditioner I did some looking around and found a "one owner" PS Audio P10 on Ebay for $3k. On Agon right now there is a "one owner" P5 that’s in great shape for $2,750 with a New price of $3,500. It is one of your regular AV businesses that puts ads up on Ag... | |

| PC or Line Conditioner WOW!I was curious as to what was under the cover but could not find any pictures with the top cover removed. Now I have to wonder if the Ayre unit is even worth the average $1,300 for a used one?I will take a look at the PS Audio stuff, I do see q... | |
| PC or Line Conditioner Yes,I am in need of more outlets as I have A Marantz AV-7701 Pre-pro along with a reliable Rotel RMB-1075 5 channel amp. So naturally I want to run not only the HT gear through a good conditioner but also the dedicated two-channel equipment as wel... | |
| PC or Line Conditioner Hello,First off Thanks for all of your replies! As for my house it was built in 2001 and I am located fairly close to Seattle (about 30 miles South). From what I can tell by looking at the breaker box I have the standard 15 Amp breakers in my fron... | |
| Best amp/ IC's to go with my Thiel 2.4SB's Just a quick update, I got my Thiel caps from Rob @ coherent source along with the box to send him my grill covers. They aren't in bad shape but after 12 years it is time for some new ones. I ended up buying the Ayre K-5xeMP pre-amp and a guy I us... | |
| Best amp/ IC's to go with my Thiel 2.4SB's Hi,I appreciate the input from all of you! I ended up going with the same amp that I had before, the Ayre V-5xe. It is a one-owner and in really good condition. Plus it is in black, which at the time Ayre charged an extra $250 for this. I prefer t... | |
| Best amp/ IC's to go with my Thiel 2.4SB's Right now I still have the Mont Blanc speaker cable from my old system and liked it very much. I don't see any reason for changing it out I am going to have to spend enough money on IC's just as it is.David | |
| Thiel Owners Ya, I told Rob about the driver issue and he also was scratching his head. One of the drivers actually separated where it is cemented to the magnet. The other one started making a distinctive cracking noise on any high-frequency recording. Well if... | |
| Thiel Owners I spoke with Rob at coherent source and he is sending me the upgrade components for my original 2.4's to make them 2.4SE's. Also I am going to send in my grill covers to have him put on some fresh ones. After 12 years of sitting in the house they ... | |
| Best amp/ IC's to go with my Thiel 2.4SB's I did as you asked and posted on the Thiel owners forum. I was wondering if since the diver dimensions are the same on the standard 2.4's could I upgrade mine with drivers from the 2.4 SB's?As for anything lacking , NOTHING! I never got to a point... |
