| Schiit Freya damage by giving it an electric static discharge on the volume knob. Wonder what they use for the volume control of the relays. If it’s like an encoder it may have got damaged or the position of the volume could be lost for reference. Not sure grasping at straws. May want to try turning the volume all the way down... | |
| Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else what version of Cornwall's do you have? if its the older ones that's probably your issue they were not great at detail. if its the mk4's I'd suggest a Tube amp like the LTA linier tube audio, Finale Audio /Triode labs. Luxman is another good sugge... | |

| Klipsch Heritage Range I e had Heresy’s and they are quite good and imo the gem of the lower priced Heritage line. They are like mini LaScala’s and with that tilt up fill the room better IMO then the other smaller horn speakers in that line gone are the harsh upper e... | |

| Sub matching...REL with Klipsh For some added information to add directly from REL, abate not quite relevant for your price range but could be a consideration for others. Also i don’t know the efficiency of the RP600’s but if they are getting up there this could pertain to you ... | |

| A thought on the values/steals in used Audio now...for family/friends? I don’t think there’s many good deals right now the pandemic has caused a rise in audio sales most likely due to people staying home more. this has also further fueled the crazy prices of used gear specifically vintage gear. I’ve seen some vintage... | |
| Schiit - shipments stopped? I ordered an Aegir amp Last week and had an issue with my credit card being dinged twice, My fault I believe I double clicked by mistake, they cleared it up the same day vie an email request. no issues with time to respond so maybe give them an em... | |
| DAC finalist please help in your price range you should also consider Schiit Audio, they made their name on bang for buck DAC’s not to mention they have one of the all time hero’s in DAC designers designing them, Mike Moffett. I tired a few in your price range a year ago ... | |

| Looking to buy a quality integrated $10,000 budget. Audiofound I’m not against Pass labs at all just not their big power amps as I just don’t need 250wpc to drive 105db sensitive speakers. Their class A offerings are very interesting to me. If not a bit over my budget new. Note I’m in Canada so pay... | |
| Looking to buy a quality integrated $10,000 budget. If i go SS I'll most likely go Class A so all these big power amps I'll be passing on I have no use of hundreds of watts when 2wpc is enough 30wpc is perfect. So Pass labs if i go that way will be one of their class A amps not he INT250 for exampl... |
