| Every day I see another turntable recommendation... I went from a Clearaudio Concept with Hana EH to a Clearaudio Ovation with a Clearaudio Universal tonearm and Hana ML. Worlds different and astonishingly good. Could be my last table, possibly not. What made the upgrade even better was selling my ... | |
| Scored 3 isoacoustics isolation feat, now what? Love my Quick Mill M58. Hate their vacuum breakers. | |
| Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much? Focal Sopra 2's are my judge of price gouging. Just two years ago they could be had for $15k. They now cost $22k. There is no way to slice that cake to justify it. Glad I got mine before the gouging began, but I won't be back to Focal. | |
| Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s? @smodtactical +1 | |
| D'Agostino Progression Integrated Amp @mrskeptic username checks out. | |
| American Made Audio Products A lot of grumps in here are missing the point of this list, even if it doesn't include that one rare equipment manufacturer that you feel is important, but isn't on the list. This website is to help guide the vast majority to brands made in the US... | |
| Reasons not to freak out about tube supplies Uncle Kevy is the best. I don't understand the haters. Thanks for the info | |
| The panic selling of tube audio had begun. Looks like a few of the bigger named tube dealers have pulled their website/tube selection completely. I can't wait to watch more panic fireworks for the few that are now "safe" since they stocked up on overpriced tubes. | |
| Electro-Harmonix/New Sensor bad news and a saving grace... What interesting times. I didn't know EH housed so many brands. | |
| Please settle a bet! Cultists need to be autobanned from this place.... I've had a pair of Aria 936's. Wasn't in love with them whatsoever. I bought a new pair two years ago for $2700. At these new prices I wouldn't even consider them. Plus the lacquer finish on t... | |
| I need help regarding tube phono preamplifiers I've always lusted after Vac phonostages, but haven't made the leap. Same with Aesthetix. Aesthetix worried me to have to always be chasing tubes and noise. Went Allnic and I could not be happier. Possibly last phonostage I'll need. But you are in... | |
| Soundsmith notes the passing of Doug Cassara This was beautiful. What happened to these days of admiration and respect of others? | |
| Allnic h-3000 power supply issue @lak thanks for the advice. I've never heard of any of those brands so I'll do a little digging and research on them. I continually hear good things about him so I always pay attention when I see him post. | |
| Allnic h-3000 power supply issue @pops I'll be on the hunt for one of those GZ34 big base mullards. I will definitely report back when I try out the stillpoints as well. | |
| Allnic h-3000 power supply issue @pops thanks for the advice. I've definitely got a mixed bag of AQ and Shunyata cables. I guess I'll just dive in and go for it. I think I read Albert porter was a fan of the stillpoints so I'll be dipping my toe in that realm first. Also, which M... |
