| Schiit Multibits vs Chord Mojo Lowrider, I wish I knew more about DAC's to answer your question.I contacted Schiit about this and they said they never offer opinions regarding sound quality-which I can partially understand, but disagree as a way to sell equipment.Maybe, I'll gi... | |
| Schiit Multibits vs Chord Mojo You are comparing apples to oranges. The most comparable Chord DAC's are the 2Qute or DAVE, of which I can see no price(nor have I heard).Schiit has a 15 day money back guarantee, why not try out the Bifrost or Modi?I own the Bifrost multibit an... | |
| Teton design 1812 ? I think you should correct the title to say Tekton.Either way I would say 'dam/damn' they be some large speakers. | |
| Does a sub need to be on the floor? Hsu subs can be had for not a lot of money and give pretty good performance for the buck.Using spikes with subs should also help decouple them.Wolfer- a good sub, properly tuned for music shouldn't be 'boomy'. | |
| Phono/preamp/amp chain. One of them tube the others SS. Which one? This is a pretty open question.Can you provide details of what you currently have? Speakers? or are you buying everything now? | |
| Does a sub need to be on the floor? I think there is another thread on Audiogon discussing putting subs on stands. It was a couple of months ago. If I remember correctly, some said it made the subs sound better. | |
| Schitt Audio Still in business??? I, too, like herbbruce, got a rather uninformative response for them. I ended up putting up a post here on Agon and got my answer.I can kind of understand their position as everyone 'hears' differently, but a manufacturer should be able to articul... | |
| Schitt Audio Still in business??? Yes, they are in business.They answered my email in 2 days.I just ordered a Modi Multibit and got it within 5 days.No problems from the Schiit customer. | |
| In Praise of Spotify - Discover Weekly I concur, Spotify offers amazing playlists. (I will search for the Stephan Konig).I was using Pandora, but got disgusted with the repetition.Between Spotify and Classics Online, I haven't loaded a CD in months. | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce Stewart, perhaps you should read Merriam-Webster: Usage Discussion of irregardlessIrregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators... | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce Really, Stewart, 'me and any others', 'irregardless'?Sure, you can comment.Though perhaps by using such phrases and that non-existant 'word', the OP will, hopefully, give your comments the weight they deserve. | |
| advice- DACs with Tubes, Or??? budget Can you tell us the model Emotiva you are using?Also, what is you current set up? Off the cuff, I think your amp would be most directly responsible for the fatiguing brightness, but I could be wrong. | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce Stewart, I now understand what you were driving at.And, I can understand the disappointment you must have felt having to go back to the Vandy's. But, I want Sinewave to have a honeymoon with his new speakers. Should time reveal any shortcomings, t... | |
| Which Zu for you I just bought a pair of Omen bookshelf speakers from Zu and scored a pair of HSU subs on Agon. I am still in the process of putting things together, but I think it is going to be a killer system. I think this might be a cost effective way to get i... | |
| Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce Guys!Will you please let sinewave enjoy his purchase?We all have our preferences, but why go out of your way to throw a monkey wrench into someone else's choice.I, for one, hopes he enjoys the Wilson's. BTW, I have the Vandy's, and enjoy them. I h... |
