| Modwright Oppo 105 I'm really curious about the Modwright modded 105 as a replacement for my Ayon CD-1.Seems like there is potential to match (or exceed?) the Ayon's performance plus the added benefits of BluRay and high-res audio capability using the Oppo's DAC. I ... | |
| Ayon CD 1 acting up THanks, I'll give USA Tube Audio a call, they have always been helpful in the past. Another problem that has occurred very occasionally is that the player will kind of lock up when starting a CD by hitting play. That is the track number comes on, ... | |
| Budget-Friendly Interconnects? I see you have Clear Day Double Shotguns (which I just got last week). Why not consider Clear Day ICs. They are under $200 I believe. I have a pair and they sound quite good. | |
| Shindo/Kronzilla combo for vinyl Any advice on a Shindo verus other preamps with phono stage to pair with the Kronzilla? | |
| Hi Fi Dealers in NYC - where to find them? Any opinions on In Living Stereo? I went there once on a visit to NYC and they were relatively pleasant, set up a Shindo system for me to listen to and were laid back about it. | |
| Verity Audio Amadis Owners, Listener Impressions? Hi, Jeff, glad Playhouse Audio still carries Devore. I talked to the owner and he seemed like a good guy. He also runs a great concert venue in Atlanta although I forget the name. | |

| Best undiscovered speakers on the market today ? I have to second Ralph's recommendation of Audiokinesis speakers. I have the Jazz Modules and am very happy. | |
| Best speakers for tube amp looking for suggestions I agree with Ralph about Audiokinesis. I have the Jazz Modules. They are very tube friendly and I've found that they keep revealing their potential as you improve things upstream. I recently have made two improvement in my system, adding the Gabri... | |
| cabling suggestions with Ayon I also have been running the Gabriel Gold Raptures between my CD-1 and integrated amp with excellent results. | |
| Preamp PC - Elrod Sig II or SR Tesla T2 or ?? A question for all you Synergistic fans. I just got a Powercell 6 with the Synergistic T3 UHC going to the wall, which I really enjoy. I am currently using non-Synergistic powercords (VH Audio Airsine and Flavor 4) hooked up to my integrated amp a... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I bought a pair of Rapture IC's from Glory and all I can say is "sweet mother of god" these things have transformed my system. Everything from lower tighter bass to delicate highs. For example, cymbals are remarkably realistic. I'm hearing things ... | |
| Ayon CD-2 sonics? thoughts? opinions? Aggielaw, Just got a Gabriel Gold Rapture that I also purchased from Glory (gary) running from my Ayon CD-1 to the KR Audio Kronzilla SXi integrated. All I can say is "wow", these cables really get the most out of the Ayon. Also, I recently starte... | |
| Do you leave CD players with tube outputs on? THanks, Al. I have the CD-1. The distributor states that the manufacturer recommends turning off with each use. | |
| Do you leave CD players with tube outputs on? I have left my player on for 72+ hours and do hear improvements in sound stage both width and depth, and a little more detail. The CD player runs quite warm to the touch -- Is heat a concern?? |
