| New Falcon ls3/5a Silvers in the house @mlsstl very interesting. I was considering the VT-70 as well..but thought the absence of 16 ohm taps on the transformers may be an issue. Were you happy with the LSA until you tried the Schiit? Are you running two Gjallarhorns in mono or just ... | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade @steakster Who did I insult and how exactly? I acknowledged that this thread shifted into a predictable back and forth between those who perceive meaningful differences from certain equipment and those that think those perceptions are imagined.... | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade Wow Thanks a lot for all who have responded Seems like some of this thread has taken the predictable turn of people stating digital is all the same and those who feel that improvements come with better engineering. I’m personally in the latter... | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade Does anyone have a “sense” on what’s the better app for liner notes and for searching classical music ? Conductor or Sense ? I listen to a lot of styles of music but spend a good bit of time with chamber music and jazz. Currently I only use Qobuz... | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade There’s a N150 being offered where I live so I could avoid shipping… looks like it may not have been babied but … then again, neither have I https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650057654-aurender-n150/ | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade Thanks for all the suggestions there actually aren’t a lot of pulse minis second hand … I think they get snatched up pretty quickly. There was a Pulse (non mini) for sale on one of the sites recently at a great price but it went fast. I’m now ... | |

| Preamp for First Watt F7 @coaster86 I think the Van Alstine RB10 (which I have) could be a good pairing for the F7 but the F7 has a 10kΩ input impedance. If you buy a new one from Frank , he can make an adjustment to one of the preamp outs to be a super low output impe... | |
| Aggrivated tinnitus from speakers? @macg19 According to the docs, my tinnitus is caused by my asymmetrical hearing loss. I was in loud rock punk bands when I was in my late teens, very early 20's. I'm now in my late forties. I've listened to music all my life and seen a lot of... | |
| Aggrivated tinnitus from speakers? Also a tinnitus sufferer here although I just went though a someone experimental and expensive treatment which was pretty successful depending on how you gauge success. As far as listening to music, I find piano music brings it out the most.. I l... | |
| Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers Not sure if OP is still looking into getting the Fritz speakers (or anyone else who may be considering) but he just posted a sale on the Carrera’s for $2800...they are typically $3500. $2800 is only $200 more than he’s charging for the Carbon 7’s... | |
| Let's Talk DAC's Does anyone here have experience with the Merason Frerot ? I know there are a handful of great reviews, but I haven't read too much (or any) first hand experience from users on this forum. I have read a bit from ppl who are happy with their hig... | |
| New Rel Classic 98 Subwoofer @lalitk Thanks for the video link. Interesting that they and you both felt there was a need and market for such a product. I am also a fan of the veneer and it looks like the walnut would match my Fritz speakers perfectly pic here [https://pos... | |

| Aurender Congrats on the n200 purchase! Curious how the n150 and n200 are different … wasn’t able to quickly glean that from the aurender site… is it power supply? Clock? I actually like the form factor and black and white display of the n150 much bett... |
