| Holo Audio May KTE vs DCS Rossini Player / Clock @rooze Seek out the opportunity to hear the Apex upgrades...stunning. | |
| Help With New Preamp Decision @soix Someone above mentioned the yellow board was the old board so perhaps the brown board is the new one? The brownish/yellowish board was the first Ref5se and the green board was the later version. I've owned both and there was no discerni... | |
| Integrateds: Luxman vs. Ayre? @erik_squires Ive heard the 507ux (but not the II version) as well as the Ayre ex-8 2.0. They are both exceptional amplifiers and you can’t go wrong with either one. Below are my opinions, which are completely worthless because it all depends on... | |
| Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ @tonywinga To further refine: if two tress fall, one after the other, and with the first one you had an ethernet filter in your pocket and the second one you did not and yet, they soundeded identical….well, then the filter makes no discernable d... | |
| Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ Digital transmission (external to a chip) is typically an analog waveform which “simulates” the ones and zeros over a cable. Most believe it is either a one or a zero but the fact is the analog waveform is a voltage approximation (the better the a... | |
| Steely Dan @soix Yes they are tubed, el34’s, Shindo Labs Corton Charlemagne 34 monoblocks. | |
| Steely Dan One of my favorite groups of all time, blurring the lines between jazz and rock and exceptional musicians. In fact, I have Walter Becker’s last pair of hifi amps (purchased from his estate). They sound sublime….he loved hifi gear and was an audiop... | |
| McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier? @czarivey ...from Chinese parts @ghasley I'm not sure what your agenda may or may not be but, other than the Compass and a few other not for the "North American market" Jeep branded vehicles, the US/North American parts content of the typica... | |
| Grandinote becoming more U.S.A. @ellajeanelle Certainly no intent to offend. ghasley: Are you a Grandinote representative? No, nor do I own their products. Unless you are, the question was not directed at you. Apologies, I just felt like the "welcome" being di... | |
| Grandinote becoming more U.S.A. @ellajeanelle Average annual income for the US in 2022 was around $105,000 per year, median annual income was around $75,000 per year. Depending on how that “average US” citizen allocates their resources, it seems to me that they could fit one o... | |
| McIntosh 2.1kw amplifier? @czarivey some Jeeps are built in Toldeo, OH; others are made in Detroit, MI and the remaining models are built in Warren, MI. I’m not a Jeep owner or potential owner but your comment about “made in China” is false. | |
| Grandinote becoming more U.S.A. Congratulations and best wishes! | |
| Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ Everyone begins and ends this part of the audio journey differently. What is the baseline from which to compare? Is it a redbook cd vs a streamed version? We then must obsess over whether the recording is consistent between the two samples? I ... | |
| Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described Likewise @mahgister | |
| Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described @bslon @mahgister I wasn’t trying to insult the OP, on the contrary, people with little to no buy/sell experience on Audiogon are most likely to make a mistake. If rookies are on both sides of a deal, the odds are pretty good something will... |
