Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T
It's really surprising that someone would go to that level to vent out frustration against Michael Kelly who is a perfect gentleman all the way at least in my opinion.

Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T
@steve59/@d2girls- Thanks for your suggestions. I have got zero experience with active speakers. I would try to audition them if they are available locally....@luxmancl38-  I have recently spoken with Michael Kelly about his 20T replacement. It is... 
Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T
@jwincville- I listened to the Rockport Atria-II speakers a few times in the last 2 weeks and I am still not very convinced that it is worth replacing the Aerial 7Ts. So I am not going for this upgrade immediately. If I change my mind I will defin... 
Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T
@Chilehed- Thanks for your detailed response. In fact I listened to Atria-II with DCS Rossini Rossini DAC driven by Gryphon integrated amplifier in Goodwins High End audio showroom in Waltham-MA. Yes I will audition Atria -II in my room before mak... 
Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T
@Chilehed- Thanks for your reply. Aerial 7T indeed is a great speaker and I can easily live with that. The room is so important that sometimes these evaluation sessions at different rooms could be very misleading. I heard Atria II in a relatively ... 
New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!!
Hello Georgehifi- Thanks for your response. JC1+ indeed supports balanced inputs like the old JC1 but the circuit inside is not balanced which is where you get the most benefit out of a pure balanced design. Just having a balance input with a sing... 
New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!!
Hello All,I have great appreciation for Parasound/John C amplifiers. I am sure that the new JC1+ would be an outstanding amplifier. However none of the John C amplifiers are balanced design unlike Pass Labs and many other more expensive brands. Ho... 
Add an external DAC. Make my Oppo UDP-205 a true top player
@vinylvalet- Thanks for your feedback and I agree that a good linear power supply would definitely make Oppo 205 player sound good let alone being a better transport. But how do I do that? I am not comfortable opening the top cover and replace par... 
Add an external DAC. Make my Oppo UDP-205 a true top player
@dcaudio- I am also in a similar situation like you and I am looking for a good DAC to connect to Oppo 205. I am trying to find out how good Oppo 205 is as a transport. Does anyone have any feedback/opinion on this? One of my shortlisted DACs is B... 
The floor between and behind the speakers is too often neglected
Hello,A great topic often overlooked by folks trying to build their music room or HT room. I consider speaker postioning as one of the key framework items in this process w/o which it is amost impossible to get the best performance out of your spe... 
Moving on from Parasound A21 (maybe?)
Hello professorsvsu, I own a Parasound Halo A-21 amplifier and I was going through an upgrade consideration, although for different reason, few months back. You can see this post going to my profile where you would get details about a list of Clas... 
Dedicated 20 amp lines/should i use a sub panel
@Al- Yes, it makes sense to measure the voltage to narrow down the issue. I haven't upgraded the Parasound Halo-A21 amplifier because of two issues, room acoustics and power quality inconsistency issue that we are currently discussing. I have some...
