| Are audiophile products designed to initially impress then fatigue to make you upgrade? What is your point? Buy an Audio Note Ongaku today versus a twenty year old Ongaku. There have been running changes but the twenty year old amplifier remains an exceptional performer and is completely serviceable. If you purchase compromised produ... | |
| Are audiophile products designed to initially impress then fatigue to make you upgrade? The utility you buy at the point of purchase in better made gear remains. Certain things do wear out over time but reputable companies who build serviceable gear are the ones around for the long haul. At least thats the gear I try to buy. Its the ... | |
| Are audiophile products designed to initially impress then fatigue to make you upgrade? If that's how you really feel then you aren't their target market. Plainly stated, manufacturers want to impress you at demo time so that you will purchase. They then want that experience to continue to enhance so that you will comment positively ... | |
| Fee for home audition @svenjosh glad to have been of assistance (ie:PLL lock). With some streamer/servers where great care hasn’t been taken (like most most computers and consumer grade products) the PLL lock can be a useful feature. In your case, it is detrimental and... | |
| Anybody try the new Heaven 11 Billie Mk 2? @tubeguy76 if you look on Steve Huff’s website he is selling his Billie for $1,400 which makes it a pretty compelling value if you really are leaning that direction. A friend emailed me that, besides listing his Billie for sale, Mr. Huff has also ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev mine did not come with one when I bought last year. Do you have a rca/spdif cable? | |
| Anybody try the new Heaven 11 Billie Mk 2? @tubeguy76 Actually they have a 30 day return policy so that's something. I would like to compare with my Rogue Cronus III. What are you waiting for? With a 30 day try it at home without risk policy… | |
| Fee for home audition @svenjosh How are things progressing? Please share with us your chain from ethernet cable to Grimm to aes cable, etc. | |
| Anybody try the new Heaven 11 Billie Mk 2? He had already upgrade to the Deville SQ. Listen, if the Billie sucked the sentiment would be deafening. There has never been a time in hifi where there is more great stuff at reasonable prices. Its the high end chase that garners headlines an... | |
| Anybody try the new Heaven 11 Billie Mk 2? @tubeguy76 I noticed that about Huff as well. He will state that he’ll never sell this or that but a few videos later, it’s gone. He also talks to dead people so he’s definitely an interesting fella. Well, apparently Mr. Huff's lifetime spea... | |
| Biasing signal tubes on a tube power amp/Quicksilver M120 Or it could mean that they degarded over the preceding 50 years. Did you buy them from a reputable person/business? Tested? | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Well, since you are already married you will have to let that slide LOL. Breakin for the Grimm is only a few day and Shunyata’s newwer cables are minimal as well. Looking forward to you achieving your goals. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev When does the Grimm and your Shunyata interconnects arrive? | |
| Fee for home audition @svenjosh I do have a router in the room so that’s not an issue. I need to access my NAS and I am thinking of wireless as there is only one Ethernet input. Josh, you may want to rethink if you have alot of data. If convenient, maybe a high qu... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Yes, it replaced my Innuos Zenith Mk3, which I was quite happy with. |
