| Pass....Accuphase....or...... +1 @vinylvalet The under the radar gem in amplifiers. | |
| Let's talk about Silver... @erik_squires You mention Wireworld Cables, did you find them problematic? I ask because they are highly regarded as good for the money cables and neutral. | |
| Stereo Times 2024 MOST WANTED COMPONENTS List I am forever thankful to Terry for his pointing me to the Coda S5.5.I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! | |
| Received my Denafrips Venus 15th @zaxx40 There is a USA Dealer too, @Audioman58 in MA. I got my Terminator 15th from him. | |
| Received my Denafrips Venus 15th From what I can gather the Arcas has a better clock, but if you are using the clock sync between the Arce and the Venus 15th then it is taking advantage of the better OCXO clock in you Venus so most likely there would be no advantage of the higher... | |
| ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE STREAMERS REALLY WORTH IT @nubiann A well thought out response. Good luck with your search. | |
| Needing DAC Advice An R2R selection that you may like would be the Denafrips Venus 15th. Audioman58 sells them for well under $4000. If you stretch your budget to about $5400 you can get the Terminator 15th which is an outstanding DAC and build around it. It will te... | |
| Solid state amp that tube fan can be happy with? I replaced my VAC Renaissance 70/70 with a Coda s5.5 and I am very happy. @mulveling nailed it as far as that tube harmonic distortion that is pleasing to the ears. But I have adjusted and I am very happy with the results. | |
| DAC for Aurender N200 @vthokie83 I think you got a chance to hear what I was talking about. Term 15th is a T+, so essentially the same. It really works well together with the N200. I have the Hermes between them to go up another step with clock sync and I2s. | |
| Denafrips Terminator II 12th anniversary VS. Terminator PLUS 12th anniversary @marco1 That's the thing, they haven't told him. I told him this morning! | |
| Denafrips Terminator II 12th anniversary VS. Terminator PLUS 12th anniversary @marco1 I wonder too since the T 15th is the "old" T+ inside. They selling a new faceplate and some hand selected parts? | |
| Experience up-leveling streaming with USB cables? @bluethinker In comparison to the AQ Diamond. The Diamond was very transparent and detailed. A bit thin in the midrange but had fast articulate bass. The frontRow Reserve (Audience's best USB Cable) Did everything the AQ did as far as hearing the... | |
| Received my Denafrips Venus 15th @brbrock I've owned the Denafrips Venus II before the Terminator 15th for 3 years. My Legacy Wavelet II also has an internal DAC. I have become accustomed to the R2R sound in comparison and prefer it. I wanted to take advantage of the clock sync... | |
| Received my Denafrips Venus 15th Congratulations on your new Venus 15th. I've had my Terminator 15th for about a month and I just love it. I came from a Venus II as well. Keep burning it in it just keeps getting better. I got over 600 hours on mine now. | |
| Preamp issue I had a similar story with my VAC tube preamp and amp. I was the original owner for 25 years. They sat for quite some time before I came back to audio. I got them both repaired at VAC in Sarasota, and both units were down more than operational for... |
