New Network Acoustics Tempus switch You're welcome @astev1968. The EtherRegen is an EZ upgrade (it was for me). It gets hot, is easy to sell and a variety of switch upgrades are available and worthwhile. I tried the Bonn 8 but meh. The M12 was revealing. then adding the JCAT p... | |
New Network Acoustics Tempus switch Helo @astev1968, So far the Switch X is sounding very good. I feed both of my audio systems off of the 'clean side' of the SwitchX which is also a modem. this 'clean side' also feeds Wifi X. You need it to be able to control any app based se... | |
New Network Acoustics Tempus switch Hi @markush , I guess I forgot that I also previously had an EtherRegen. I am sure you will love the Tempus! an't wait to hear aboutit! Ken | |

A Sonic Revelation: M101 LAN Cable Review I also visited Lubomir and the M101 room. He is super friendly and spent much time with me. Yes the difference between his ethernet cable vs standard LAN cable was easily appreciated and significant. He stated his good cable should be the last ca... | |
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? There were at least two Grimm MU1's at CAF. Bill w GTT showed his with the Makua Preamp with onboard Tambaqui DAC. The amps were the new Percas, using two stereo amps in a vertically biwired configuration. I did not find the Vivid Giyas bright.... | |
New Network Acoustics Tempus switch Hi @markush , will you be replacing another switch? I am a Network Acoustics fan and have two of their Muon Pro filter systems, As far as a switch, I have gone from netgear(basic) to Bonn 8 (slightly better maybe) to JCAT M12 Gold (much better) ... | |
Higher-End Class A/B vs. Class A Integrateds Has anyone here heard the SoulNote integrateds, A2, A3? They sounded nice at CAF. | |
Audience Cables HI @inna , I have not heard either of those. I am sure there are plenty that are amazing. I am trying not to find another one! :) Ken | |
Who is excited about Capital Audiofest 2023? Yes +1 on the Gershman Avant Garde Speakers @vacountryboy! I really liked them. And I guess therefor I liked the Infigo amps! | |
Audience Cables Hello @inna ! Yes Elation are at another level. But what is not fair is the way I can not ‘unhear’ things! :). They are so much better (to me). I acquired my cables over time, many used. The AU 24 SX were easy to sell. Not a huge differe... | |
Who is excited about Capital Audiofest 2023? My Favorites: Von Schweikert Endeavor SE's with massive VAC equipment; these smaller reasonable VS's were amazing in that room. VS VR-55 mkII with Westmisterlab REI mono's and Lampi Horizon. Wow. These class A amps are small and run cool. Hav... | |
My High End Audio Gear As A Long Term Investment!!! What is satisfying is going to CAF and finding few systems better than your own! I enjoyed the Von Schweikert Speakers (VR-55mkII w/ active bass) and WestminsterLab amps (REI CLASS A Monoblocks) and the Lampi Horizon. | |
Audience Cables I tried several manufacturers cables when first looking to upgrade. I settled on Audience AU 24SX and gradually acquired a full loom. I thought they were great. Then my dealer swapped in a pair of Kubala Sosna Elation speaker cables. Wow. muc... | |
Power Cables - Third Party or OEM @akgwhiz check out VHAudio. Chris is super nice and gives automatic discounts. I made long runs of speaker cables with Furutech wire and spades and heat shrink that came out great looking and sounding. I bought a Ryobi battery 18v heat gun, and... |
