Help with speaker cable under $500 for new system
I have been using Kimber Kable 12vs speaker cables in my system. The thing I found with all Kimber Kable is that they have a great value to quality ratio. You are not paying for a name like you do with audio quest and some of the other cables that... 
wadia 170 i transport- need help
The Wadia does not have a DAC built in. It bypasses the internal DAC in your IPod allowing you to use a higher grade external DAC. Personally, I use a Jolida glass FX tube DAC which I have had great results with. There are so many great DACs out t... 
New Bluetooth Jolida Glass FX Tube DAC III W
I have a first generation Glass FX tube DAC. For the money it is a pretty decent DAC. That being said, I have it at Jolida twice in the 2 1/2 years that I've had it. Once for a hum issue and once for a dead channel due to a cold solder joint. Joli... 
My first turntable
In my personal opinion I would send it back and get a Rega RP3 for roughly the same money you have 10 times the turntable. The Rega RP1 would outperform the music hall for significantly less. I've heard terrible things about music Hall's customer ... 
Has anyone compare Jolida JD-100 to the new JD-200
If you are referring to the Jolida Fusion CD player, it is quite good. I've heard it several times now as my local stereo shop is a Jolida dealer. It has a built in DAC and runs 6 tubes. The Fusion is about $2200 or $2300 new. There are 4 levels o... 
Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use?
Jolida JD100A 
Best Option In A CD/SACD Player Under $1,500.00
I really like the Jolida JD100A. They are no longer made due to a newer model. You would have to find a used one. It would probably be between 500- 700 dollar range. They have tubes which make it a warm sounding player IMO 
WADIA 171I vs CLASSE CD TRANSPORT
I used to think so. And it may be possible but I upgraded my CD player and now think that my CD player with the same music floors my DAC and iPod dock. I have a Wadia 170 I and a Jolida tube DAC that I was comparing to my Magnavox CDB 650 CD playe... 
Taking Suggestions for New Speaker Cables
I have all Kimber Kable in my system. Depending on length and termination, you can stay well within your budget. I use 12vs cables personally. You can call and talk to Nate Mansfield at Kimber. He will take the time to learn about your system, you... 
Rogue Apollo v. VAC Phi 300.1a
I cannot speak for the Apollo, and I've not heard VAC amps, however I have heard Rogue M150 and M180 monoblocks and the stereo 90 amplifiers. I can tell you they sound better than anything in or around their price point. I have the Rogue Perseus p... 
What amplifier do you use for your Dahlquist DQ10s
I would love to pair them with Rogue M180 mono blocks. I have ultimately ended up buying an Aragon 4004 Mark II. 
What amplifier do you use for your Dahlquist DQ10s
Brf, thanks for the advice. I have definitely thought of upgrades on them. Ultimately I will be upgrading caps and wiring for sure. I have a great stereo shop where I live that I have dealt with for many years that will do the upgrades. I'm just w... 
What amplifier do you use for your Dahlquist DQ10s
Thanks for the advise. It will be helpful in my decision. 
Need help with a Tube PREAMP.
Have you checked out the Rogue Audio Perseus preamp? It has given new life to my system. It is a good value at around $1895.00. IMO, Rogue Audio makes great stuff for the price
