| Three way shootout... I own the Gungnir (not multibit) and have to say it it quite good despite not being multibit. So, I can only assume the Yggy will be even better.Unfortunately, I heard an Ayre Codex, and the Gungy has been replaced.I hate to add another manufactur... | |
| On mid-fi do you hear much difference between Tidal and Spotify Pandora needs to up the streaming rate, that's for sure.Spotify premium isn't bad. Compared to Tidal, it is a close second. There has been some noise about Spotify moving to higher streaming rates recently. If so, it will probably knock Tidal back... | |
| Anthem Statement P5 amp and Golden Ear Triton One speakers @OP, Sorry for not replying sooner. In any case, I am a Vandy man.I heard them in the '80's and never forgot how great they sounded (and at a great price point), even after 30 years.Do I like other manufacturers? Yes, Maggies, Ohm, Shahanian, and ... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 - 3.7i owners need help please +1 on breaking in. Your description of 'compression' definitely sounds like things need to break in.I would let them play background music and not listen to them critically for a week, at least.Do you still have the 3.6's?Bob | |
| The value of of the sealed record. Perhaps if it was a limited run, I may consider it an investment, but for the most part I think it a sad way to own music- In that recorded music was made to be listened to.B | |
| Add a Subwoofer to my Vandersteen 1ce s or replace with Revel Concerta2 F36 Well, I hate to be a stick in the mud, but if you are considering the Vandy 2's, I suggest also looking at the Treo's. I bought ctsooner's pair after owning the 3a sigs. It was a good move. I like the more stylish design as well as the improved pe... | |
| Subpanel/Isolation Transformer/Dedicated Lines It sounds like you have things pretty well in hand. Though fellow Agoner's will have opinions/recommendations, perhaps you should consult a local high end dealer or installer. So much of this has to pass local codes, so someone knowledgeable about... | |
| Spotify expected to launch umcomoressed streaming I would agree with you, latlik, but Spotify has a much larger catalog. I must mention, I am not very interested in the newest tracks.B | |
| Spotify expected to launch umcomoressed streaming If they do, I will drop Tidal.B | |
| Spotify expected to launch umcomoressed streaming I read that they were offering subscriptions to some select members for lossless, so it must be in the works. Of course, I didn't get an invite.B | |
| Amps Atma-Sphere M-60 Mono blocks OTL design Ozzy, do you have any pics of your speakers?B | |
| Wireless speakers for a second room? The Bluesound DAC is substantially better than Sonus, but still not as good as a stand alone DAC.You will need an additional Bluesound Node for each room you want to stream to.B | |
| Add a Subwoofer to my Vandersteen 1ce s or replace with Revel Concerta2 F36 Being a Vandy fanboy, I am hardly impartial, but I, too, would opt to keep the 1ce's and get a pair of 2w or 2wq's in a perfect world (though you would need a pair of M5-HP crossovers or a pair of fixed crossovers matched to your amp).REL is a goo... | |
| Wireless speakers for a second room? I think what you want is a Bluesound Node, but you would be playing cd's from a digital library, not your CD player.I own the Node 1 and output to my DAC. I have to say I am very happy with the wireless connectivity (though I made a work around fo... | |
