$100,000 line stage Why so judgmental of how other people choose to spend their money? Because 99% of them are just "glitz queens", who have no idea of what good sound is and how to achieve it. They think because it looks a million dollars it must sound good and a... | |
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? nonoiseAs for measuring, I had to turn down my volume by 2-3db because after changing directions, it was too loud. auxinputThat being said, I also have experienced the 2-3db effect when changing fuses or power cords or op amps. Really??? 2-3db d... | |
$100,000 line stage Still not sure why you care how grown up's spend there money though. Just sayin', it is there money. I care because there's just too many of these money grabbing manufacturers in this industry, just look at a mains fuse that costs over $100 ... | |
$100,000 line stage Why be concerned regarding what another person chooses to do with their own money? I don't see it that way Charles, I see it as a money grabbing whore taking advantage of a rich fool and his money.Cheers George | |

$100,000 line stage $100,000 line stage Odd isn’t it, that so long as the source and amp impedance is a good match, that a $49 passive such as the Schiit Sys could sound more transparent and dynamic than this $100k line stage.http://www.schiit.com/products/sys Cheer... | |

Yggy DAC Aurender A10 Has a built in DAC. So i hook a Yaggdrasel DAC Up to A/B it. i could hear no difference at all. Odd you should have heard some differences as the A10 is Delta Sigma conversion and the Yaggy is R2R Ladder Multibit, which I’ve always p... | |
Pass Labs XA100.5 or XA160.5 or keep the Lexicon ZX7 and buy a Arc preamp? Get one of the Pass’s and go direct with your A10 or you can go with a Schiit Freya, which you can choose between tube, solid state, or passive outputs on the fly. It’s single ended or balanced, 3x inputs, has a great relay controlled 128 stepped ... | |
What Is The Cost Of Amplifier Casework? This is sort off what I have, and listeners have said it's the best image and depth they've ever heard.https://imageshack.com/i/poYzREGxj Cheers George | |
What Is The Cost Of Amplifier Casework? Exactly kalali, the depth perceived is all dependant on how far back the back wall is between the speakers, in my case it’s a good 5mts. But you still need a short wall with a meter to two space directly behind the speaker for bass loading, as you... | |
Suggestions for a narrow (half-width) CD player? It’s a dac, but could be good for you. Marantz HD Dac1 1/2 width Cheers George | |
What Is The Cost Of Amplifier Casework? I must disagree. Well all I can say is Neville Thiele (rip) taught me this, and the result was a no brainer, so much so I even took the wall out inbetween the speakers and left just a short 1.5mt wall behind each speaker for loading purpose, an... | |
What Is The Cost Of Amplifier Casework? when using DSP room correction there is a compeling argument to have loudspeakers placed close to the rear wall. Yes this can be done with DSP, and you may well get a flat overhaul correction done. But you can also say goodbye to any depth to t... |
