| What’s really hurting the audio hobby? I've been in the Navy for 22 years I have traveled all over the world (26 countries and counting) I tend to visit High end audio stores when I travel. The one thing that seems to be a constant is a variation of the same 6 products in every one of ... | |
| Tidal HiFi in car with B&W speakers ? you could using airplay or android interface from your phone to your car, I do it in my mustang occasionally. Just keep in mind your going to go through a $#&$%% ton of data, steaming music is not data friendly. The music sat service is way c... | |
| Do I go from a Primaluna HP Integrated to Schiit Freya+ and a pair of Aegir Amps? his speakers are rated 8 ohms at 98db I think he's fine with the single Agir.from the Forte spec sheet:https://f072605def1c9a5ef179-a0bc3fbf1884fc0965506ae2b946e1cd.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/product-specsheets...

| used Integrated tube amp under $1500 for Klipsch Cornwall III's? With that sensitivity it opens the doors to a whole lot of very nice sounding SET's. low power ones too. friend has Le Scala's hooked to some 2wpc 45 tube based SET's they sound amazing he paid less then 1500 for his mono amps and a Decware pre. ... | |

| Krell 400xi - Distortion in right channel ! If you've eliminated any other source of the sound then you may want to have a local tech take a look. parts that fail horribly can cause more damage on the way out. | |
| Brodmann FS speakers with SET tube amp I would not think about LS 3/5a’s with a SET amp the LS’s need lots of power as they are not very efficient.that seems, to me, a strange way to list spec's for those speakers. really wish manufacturers could stick to a standard spec measurements a... | |

| Only $800 to work with streamer/power for 3rd system Biggest question is why do you need 32bit support, is there any true 32bit software out there yet? I'm betting the highest you'll find is 24bit with any regularity and even that stuff most likely isn't true 24bit. Think up-sampling. I'm not trying... | |
| Preamps... understanding volume... Schitt Audio Fraya or Saga would let you see if you need the passive or active preamp as it can switch between both. $299-$899 | |
| Help looking for dynamic warm romantic sound with detail Tube integrated and some ProAc floor standers. I'm still amazed at the Proac response 2.5 and successors. had the 2.5's with some Cary SLM 100 (100wpc) tube amps that was a heavenly combo for some reason granted the later 2.5 variants are more det... |
