| Ayre Codex - to keep or not to keep The Ayre Codex was one of the more problem ridden audio products I ever brought. I purchased my new unit (a 230-volt unit in my country) in February this year from the authorized distributor of Ayre in my country. Shortly thereafter I found that i... | |
| Morrow Audio Cables Anyone have Morrow digital cable and are they up to the same standard set by Morrow's interconnects ? | |
| Morrow Audio Cables I have two MA3 interconnect and found them detailed, transparent and vivid, the only thing I wish for is may be more full bodied and tonal saturation.Apparently Morrow cables used the same conductor but just more of it as you move up the product l... | |

| Parasound Z DAC Thank you for the information. Looks like a great choice for poor guy like myself. Anyone compare this against the HRT Music Streamer HD, which has also been alleged as a great affordable DAC. | |
| Most sophisticated and intelligent musician There are some accomplished works of art around that are sophisticated, even technically daunting but not necessarily enjoyable - subjectively of course.

| What equipment do you most regret parting with?? Resolution Audio Opus 21 CDPSonic Frontier SFCD-1 CDPPass Labs Aleph P pre-ampPass Labs Aleph 5 power-ampI have regret selling them, but it was nothing compared with my other regrets in life. | |

A couple of weeks ago I was selling over head-fi my Grado RS2i headphone, a much sought after item, to a gentleman in Sweden. On my way to the post office I got a vague h... | |

Our minds are comfortable only in the security of the known. That which cannot be fathomed is simply too scary for the ego t... | |
| Cambridge 840C DACs vs. Wyred vs. Eastern Electric Just my 2 cents but if you are willing to spill a little more bucks, for $1,150 the Anedio D1 is worth looking into. There is a review over head-fi wherein this dac was compared to a few others including some costing more and come out ahead. | |
| Rega apollo v NAD 565 BEE comparsion Others? Geph0007The review by Sam T is up on NAD website now. What intrigues me however is the review by Doug Schneider of SoundStage who claimed that it sounds a lot like Simaudios Moon Evolution SuperNova... | |
| What CDP gets really close to vinyl? Another vote for Resolution Audio Opus 21. Certainly you could get new CD players that come along with latest chips and higher resolution, but somehow the Opus 21 managed to conjure up timbre and tonal hues reminiscent of vinyl that I suspect wasn... | |
