Joseph Audio: Perspectives and Pearls
The Perspectives are interesting. Cannot find the sensitivity spec on their site? I think it may be low, based on the Pearl model. JA seems more like an assembler sourcing drivers and cabinets externally. Does Mr Joseph build his own crossovers or... 
I can't believe this.
Ozzy this experience is completely and utterly unacceptable. Most sorry. To chalk this up to “part of the new reality” is accepting as normal this sort of service level and behavior. Once we do that, then we get what we accept. It does indeed beco... 
Thought I’d share: Nicely done and practical DAC review
LOL! Funny stuff Wolf! Also agree on that D brand.    
Any Nashville enthusiasts?
@bugredmachine    Welcome to Franklin! Colin is a great resource and you will have fun visiting him.  I have Hijiri speaker cables and love this cable line.     My back issues prevent me from helping to haul your speakers 😬.  Most sorry.  Love ... 
Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...?
Audio Vector R3s are wonderful speakers.   My friend owns a set and they sound magnificent.  In addition, consider a used set of Dali Epicon 6’s.  Another great looking and sounding smallish floor stander.    Both offer great resolution, detail a...

@charles1dad is the poster child for an audiophile monogamist 🙂.  One reason I really respect him. No doubt he is a loyal husband.

Great stuff here! Fun. Thanks for the post @erik_squires .  
Neutral Dac?
I hope you like the Schiit dac! It sounds like a reasonable choice. I heard the top Yiggy model that was out some 3-4 years ago and while it was neutral, the way it did neutrality left me a tad cold. It was a bit mechanical sounding. Just my exper... 
聖HIJIRI Users thread
Yes, I have a 20 amp Hijiri Nogami power cord from my wall outlet to my Puritan 156. I liked it more than the $800 Puritan cord in my system. It works wonderfully for me and my system.   I also have the Nogami on my amp, dac and server.    
Recommend a good tube power amp in the 100 wpc range for under $4k
Want a great integrated amp for your F702s? Get the Circle Labs A200 hybrid Int amp.  Tube preamp section coupled with SS output.  Your Fyne speakers are a great match for the purity of this amp.  This one amp will greatly simplify your system and...

@soix is spot on regarding the sonic blending of the two amps on the mids. No reason to add this problem to your system.

I own the Fyne F704s and feel you are adding too much complexity to your system for no good reason.  Just get one good tube amp. No need for 100 watts unless you have a huge room.  One good tube amp will sound best.   
Neutral Dac?
@schw06  Like you I have owned and listened to many dacs over the years. I enjoyed many of them. However, I sensed there was still a dac out there that could do a better job of consistently engaging me into my music.  One that would become the fo... 
What are the big attractions at Capital Audiofest coming up this Friday?
Check out the Wolf Von Langa Son speakers in the Gestalt Audio Design room. The sound wonderful based on my experience with them.  Will be driven by New Audio Frontiers tube electronics.
