| Anyone drive Verity Audio Parsifal Encores with tubes? @maguiar102 If you're looking to stick with an integrated with the Otello's and want a tube like sound you might want to consider the Hybrid integrated amps from Modwright and Aesthetix. | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? @jwlaudio Just a bit of info that may or may not be important to you from an owner of the BHK preamplifier for over three years. As the F8 is a single ended amp and the BHK is fully balanced you are likely to run into two small issues. One is yo... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread All of Mick's remotes are 3rd party so just get a simple one you like and get the setup code from him. $10 or so on Amazon. | |
| Aqua hifi La Voce s3.....anyone audition it yet? I agree with grannyring as I have owned both versions of the La Voce. The S3 upgrade is worth every penny. If you haven't read Dave Abramson's review of the S3 as opposed to the S2 and the PSA Directstream after he got his back from the upgrade. | |
| Holo Audio Spring 3 DAC @audioman58 And last month you said the Audio GD R8 Mk II was the great bargain DAC. This month Briscati. I guess September will have you touting something different. | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? @regismc For now the #1 speaker is the Verity Otello but I still have all of the others between two houses in two different states. The Verity's are driven by either the BHK 250 or the Kinki EX-M7 with the Supratek Chardonnay. The Nola KO's give ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? @regismc The BHK amps will take any tube from the 6dj8 or 7dj8 family. The Matsushita's I ended up staying with are 7DJ8's. I have tried the BHK 250 with the Modwright LS-100, Sonic Frontier Line 2 SE+, the BHK preamp and the Supratek Chardonnay... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? @regismc Two my ears with multiple speakers the Kinki house sound is pretty much neutral and allows the character of the particular speaker in use to set the tone. Amps that I have owned that were similar were the Nuforce STA-200 and the Job 225,... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? Not really sure with the M1+ priced at $2895 with free shipping how you are getting anywhere near the price territory of either the Pass or BHK with both at $7250 plus without shipping included. I own a BHK 250 and even at the old heavily dealer ... | |
| Kinki studio EX-M1, EX-M1+ differences... vs Denafrips Hestia/ Hyperion combo? The only one I am aware of that has had both the Kinki and Denafrips pieces in house and for review is Srajen with 6 Moons. Reach out to him through the contact on his website and see what he says. He currently has the Kinki EX-M1 and the B7 mon... | |
| Reasonably sensitive speakers for tube amps, max $2k/pair, new or used @hilde45 I've read through all the suggestions here and based on the fact that your friends have subs and are looking at "mid-powered" tubes I would have them talk to Fritz and see what they can work out. He may in fact have some models that have... | |
| Subwoofer for Nola Boxer There are two inputs on the sub and two outputs on the preamp so use them both on each. | |
| New/Used Amp recommendations for about $3k-$4k? If you want to stick with Mono's check out the Kinki Studio EX-B7's for $3500 or for stereo amp the EX-M7 for $2600https://www.kinki-studio.com/product-page/ex-b7 | |
| Subwoofer for Nola Boxer RSL Speedwoofer | |
| PS Audio Directstream Dac so many for sale? MitchIf you haven’t already you might want to consider doing the transformer upgrade as that might make you even more satisfied with the current DS Sr. Even though mine has been replaced in the main system by the Aqua La Voce S3 and then the May K... |
