| Need suggestions for speaker platforms - Klipsch Forte IIs on marble floor I second the iso acoustics stuff but i would look at the GIA's as they will screw into the existing spike locations. | |

| Amplifier and Speaker A/B switcher decware makes a rather nice one for reasonable cost. not sure if there is a wait time though. ZSB | DECWARE (decwareproducts.com) | |
| What Horn loaded speaker/ speaker system for $10k'ish and under My older 1989 LaScala's were not stock by any means, all the drivers were from Crites, Crites 4500 crossover as well, i also damped the horns with dynamat and the cabinet was extensively damped as well. so they did not sound anywhere near what the... | |
| What Horn loaded speaker/ speaker system for $10k'ish and under lgo-jerry I've had LaScala's in the past in my room so not a concern. I prefer the bass loaded bass of the LaScala over both the Cornwall and forte even though both go considerably lower. but I'd like to try something a little more refined. | |
| Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time? I think he leaves many sold items up to show what he can do with different finishes etc. your over thinking this. | |
| If I rip all my CD's to flac files do I still need a CD transport? I have a CD player that's been collecting dust for two years after I put all my CD's into a storage system. Sound wise no difference in my system that's why the CD player hasn't been touched in two years. probably should sell it. | |

| NAD C658 With Tube Power Amp? Any McIntosh preamp with their DAC 2 board will do all the above. HDMI ARC is really nice to have if your integrating a TV/home theater. I use the C2700 Tube preamp but there are a few more to choose from. very well made and operation has been sea... | |

| Gustard R26 - good but not the one Interesting as I'm looking at trading for a Dave but was worried the older DAC tech maybe long in the tooth as they say compared to newer DAC designs. | |
| Can an Electric Car make your system sound better not the same but i know a few people who use a battery back up system like the Yetti, ecoflow, etc. that are basically a battery and inverter in one package usually sold as back up power. The inverter is actually quite good in many of these batter... | |
| USB DACs that outperforms OPPO 105D's internal DAC? The Oppo is getting older now and DAC's have come a long way in the last few years. I'd bet a good many newer DAC's will out perform the internal one in the Oppo. Schiit Audio, a whole host of Asian DAC's, and so many more. I'd bet any DAC above ... | |
| ads 1290L w/upgraded capacitors on internal crossovers/ new woofers 2009 vs vandersteen 5 As an ADS vintage fan with L910's and L710 currently, both have had their crossover redone and both have new tweeters and mid drivers from Richard So, there are parts still available. These were designed by the the same person who designs Arial... | |
| What Horn loaded speaker/ speaker system for $10k'ish and under JBL's seem to be well liked here. i'll have to go for a listen. Pure Audio project have been on my radar for a while now but i don't believe i have the space for them. I've also looked at Rethm but i don't feel they are what i'm looking for obv... |
