The Music Room They have a business to run, they arent trying to collect audio gear and if someone doesnt like the price they offer, dont sell it. They must buy at a price where they can make a fair return along with the risk that not everyone fully and accurate... | |
Kingko KA-101 Integrated Tube Amplifier It sounds very nice as a headphone amp with my Audeze LCD3f cans. Its auto mutes the speaker taps with the cans plugged in. I prefer a switch but hey, everyone is different. | |
Lamzator Amber 2 DAC @kalaliWhich Amber do you have? | |
A visit to the (Audio) Doctor I've had good luck with Audio Doctor however I've never required service from a component I purchased from them. I have no doubt though that they would be great with that too. With that being said, I have a problem with a guy (who signed up to Aud... | |
Lampizator Amber 3 My WAG is that it was a typo and he meant “stock” | |
McIntosh MA2275 - opinions @bikesandguitarsNo offense intended but reading your impressions of your MA2275 makes me wonder which one of our experiences was formed on a baseline MA2275. Even those in the know internally at McIntosh look away when discussing this amp. McIntos... | |
Lampizator Amber 3 What are trying to improve about the sound since you have yet to hear it? In general my experience with Lampizator has been to let it burn in and settle, then form an opinion as to the sound. The easiest and most readily available valves to consid... | |
Wondering why... I believe ML had an ongoing battle with the folks at Audio Science Review because their leader over there tested a privately owned TotalDac (meaning not from the manufacturer) and he deemed its measurements “less than ideal”. After which, ML made ... | |
Audio Show.... He merely stated that some items didn't impress him. That's kinda the point right? If something sounds good to you, or vice versa, then further research is in order. You two may be engaged in some sort of back and forth, I don't know, but if I thi... | |
Please Make Audiogon Cool I have the good fortune to work with a number of young people. They DO think audio is cool. I have a tube setup at my office and they are intrigued and interested. Play them some of their music and they will instantly smile. In fact, a young profe... | |
Buchardt S400 S300MKII Review Ive had a pair of Red Rose Music R3 monitors for years. The Buchardts are fine speakers but they did not displace these old Red Rose bookshelves...Im sure the ribbons will give up the ghost someday however. | |
Buchardt S400 S300MKII Review @apfdirtdoctor Hey apf, don’t sweat the small stuff or the snarkiness on display in the above posts. Welcome to the community and there are alot of really great hifi options available. The Buchardts are quite nice and the satori drivers are terrif... | |
Tubes or not @georgehifi The latter badged Wadias are nothing like their predecessors. Not even close. The OP can almost throw a dart at a board with 10 popular current dacs on it and improve materially. | |
Tubes or not Given your stated budget and your requirement for DSD, the Audio Mirror would be a fine place to start in the tubed dac world. Even though I am not personally a fan of Chord or the Chord Qutest, many people are and it does DSD.As an aside, I prefe... | |
Tubes or not Elizabeth, the OP listed that he/she already had tubes upstream. I always enjoy your posts but usually you don’t make blanket statements like “all mid priced dacs” and then opining that they are “all flavor of the month”. In retrospect, you probab... |
