| Leave it on? Ok @gano I leave you with your opinions and conclusions. Enjoy your music! | |
| Leave it on? For those of you that leave your gear on like dacs, streamers and SS amps I have a tip to try. Every couple of weeks or so shut them down for 5-10 minutes and then restart. While I don’t understand why, I can say it did something positive to sou... | |
| Leave it on? @gano, you are smart enough to realize a hot season, cold snap, or short term trend is no way to draw long term conclusions…..unless one has an agenda. Brutal cold also kills today. Yes conditions have come together in Europe and that is real and... | |
| Leave it on? @mylogic I understand your point. I suppose life with our technology and conveniences comes with risk. More risk than life before them some 100-150 years ago? Different risks for sure and obviously less overall. I just don’t see the added risk ... | |
| Leave it on? I keep SS gear on all the time unless on vacation or a storm. How long will you keep your new gear? 1 to 20 years as I am an audiophile 🤓. Just don’t know. How do you feel about global warming? Really not a thing you know. Current thinking... | |
| Duelund RCA Cable Fabricators...? Two suggestions based on the fact that I built many of these over the years. Use the 16 gauge. Yes it’s a little more expensive, but sounds more complete top to bottom. More foundational weight and body to the music with slightly improved mids.... | |
| Metal or Carbon Resistors - Which is better? @lalitk please let us know the specific use. It is to load a stepped attenuator? Khozmo attenuator? Shunt style stepped attenuator? Omron relay based Shunt type? Thanks. Nude Vishay ZFoils are wonderfully resolving, quiet and still pleasing to th... | |
| How close are you to being to your endgame? My system outline and I'm almost there. Very happy for you @j1735 You are in a very good place that can be elusive so enjoy! Reading through your gear I can understand why the combo would sound great together. | |
| Integrated that blew you away Circle Labs A200 hybrid that has wonderful tone and purity. Very special Int amp that is just supremely musical. Also a real gem of an integrated made by the very talented John Tucker of Exemplar Audio that very few people know about. His hybrid i... | |
| Sellers Beware Yes, this is common as anyone selling a lot of gear over the years knows. It is frustrating for sure so I am sorry the OP had to deal with it. Consider it a learning experience and move on. | |
| ??? WHY WHY WHY ??? Class A vs Everything Else Valvet Audio also makes class A SS amps that don’t get hot. They sound wonderful! | |
| Is there a ROON sound? Running Roon Nucleus with LPS and custom DC cable as core and using my Cinnamon Audio Galle streamer as an end point. Qobuz only, no stored files, no DSP use. Compared this to Jplay on the Galle and it was not even close. Roon sounded poor in co... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Can’t speak to the AM fuse you purchased, but the SR Purple was wonderful. | |
| Loudspeaker designer/manufacturer John DeVore shows reviewer Ken Micallef his system. @clio09 I would love to build the kit also. Please let us know. Very exciting. | |
| Chronos tweak at Axpona Still confused how you use them? Just place in the room? Plug into a usb digital device? |
