| AVA Vision Set 400 v Belles SA-100 Turn the gain down on the Cabernet to about 11 o'clock and you won't have any issues with volume. I am running the .60 volt Nuforce STA-200 at 10 o'clock with no issues. That's why the gain adjustment is there. | |
| Kinki Studios EX-M1 Volume knob If you think you have a problem reach out to Alvin or Ken and discuss it with them. The first version (heat sinks same color as case) used a different type of volume control and it did have some movement. My current version EX-M1+ has no movement... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I've used my Chardonnay and Cabernet with four different SS amps so far with input sensitivities from .6 volts to 2.4 volts and the adjustable gain feature has allowed me to get a noise free match with all of them. The amps so far are the PS Audi... | |
| Are There Roon Ready I2S Streamers? If you like your iFi streamer and are looking for a DAC with a great USB input then look at the Holo vs the Denafrips. If you don't hear an improvement over the Mc's internal DAC will be easy to turn over. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century If you swapped the tubes from side to side to determine they both have the same size pins and they both wobble in that socket then you can tighten the socket's grip with just a jewelers screwdriver. Many vids on You Tube of how to do it. Usually... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century @deutscherhififan Is the 300B socket loose in the chassis or is the tube wobbly in the socket as if the pins are too small? If the later that's a simple adjustment. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century There is a good chance that two shipping labels got mixed up and we may soon know who belongs to the unit in your possession and they have yours. Also 12 hour time difference so Mick doesn't usually see US e-mails until much later in the day for... | |
| Fritz vs CSS vs Ryan @temmple If you're talking about the Carbon 7 SE Mk II tweeters, from my phone conversations with Fritz he thinks the new tweeter is better than the one in the original version. Never heard either version but I would trust his choices. Also... | |
| Fritz vs CSS vs Ryan @temmple I’ve owned Carrera BE’s with the Transducer Labs tweeter for about two years now and my advice to you is that if you have any hesitancy at all about the Be tweeter sound then opt for the Carbon 7 SE or the Rev 7 SE which both have Sc... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Yes, if you're in the US order through Todd's website. | |

| Seeking Amp / Preamp Upgrades Having owned and sold one unless you are planning on a fully balanced amp I would avoid the BHK Preamp. | |
| Alta Audio’s Adam speakers Wasn't that their public introduction? Probably not many in the wild yet. | |
| Connecting USB streamer server to I2s RJ45 input of DAC? Correct you would hard wire to one of the Mesh units. | |
| Connecting USB streamer server to I2s RJ45 input of DAC? Another option that will solve your problem is to try switching from your current router extender setup to a 3 unit WiFi 6 mesh unit from Amazon. That way you will have 30 days to see if it resolves your issues. You just need to make sure that y... |
