| Hornshoppe "the Truth" preamp - any opinions? I own The Truth and it is just fantastic. I does take a full week of playing 24/7 to break in and sound its best. At first it was a tad closed in, overly warm and a little dull sounding. After some 150 hours of play time this unit has just amazed... | |
| Most annoying song, period. Styx Mr. Roboto. Yikes! | |
| Yet another Qobuz vs. Tidal debate Just ended my Tidal subscription and am moving onto Qobuz. Qobuz just sounds a little better on my system. Little more organic and natural. A tad less electronic if you will. Not day and night, but enough to cause me to switch. | |
| Mapleshade...where's the love? I like many of the Mapleshade recordings and yes Kendra Shank and other MS offerings are great music! | |
| $1300-1500 DAC The MHDT Orchid is very natural and unforced sounding. Nice detail and warmth at the same time. No tube softness. It is an easy best buy at anywhere near its price. Upgrade the output caps to Jupiter or Miflex copper foils and get the WE tube... | |
| What just happened to accepting Paypal?? looks like they are trying to drive us away Just follow the work around instructions that Agon gave. I did and it worked beautifully. Took me 3 minutes. All good. | |
| Aqua hifi La Voce s3.....anyone audition it yet? @kzs70. I just saw your post. I find the Orchid every bit as good as the Romulus. Not quite as detailed and resolved, but the Orchid offers better tone, dimension and naturalness. | |
| Atma-sphere Updates We all know Ralph is a complete gentleman on these threads. The one outlier comment is best ignored as just that.....a distant outlier! Keep it up Ralph! | |
| PS Audio DirectStream DAC measurements by ASR Good news. Most every dac he says measures poorly actually sounds very good. Many of the great measuring dacs, based on his particular set of chosen measurements, sound electronic and artificial to me. This is good news for PS Audio. 🙂 | |
| Aqua hifi La Voce s3.....anyone audition it yet? All great points! Well said. | |
| Amazon Launches Lossless "Hi-rez" HD Music Service Yes it must offer Roon integration! I use both Qobuz and Tidal. Both services sound different from each other in Roon. Thus far I like Qobuz a little more. It is less aggressive and more relaxed sounding..,warmer. Others will like Tidal more as t... | |
| Preamp Output Capacitor: Mundorf Supreme vs. Supreme Silver Oil Those Duelund tinned copper caps are so special. If you can afford those, they will easily surpass the Mundorf caps in every sonic area. I think you suspect that is true. They are pricy! | |
| Amazon just killed Tidal I’ll ask again. Is it Roon ready? For the many many Roon users that is a must. Also, the numbers don’t tell you if it will sound better. You need to listen to know that. I find Qobuz to sound better than Tidal, in Roon, playing files at the exact ... | |
| Amazon just killed Tidal Is it Roon ready/compatible? I just signed up for Qobuz and am comparing it to Tidal. Qobuz sounds better. Amazon must be Roon ready or no go for me. Doubt it will sound as good as the $24 top Qobuz offering. | |
| Will I notice a difference? Goodness. Sorry, I missed that little geographic point 🙂 |
