Simaudio Moon 740P preamp vs. Ayre KX-5 Twenty In fact even after selling the amp and the DAC he kept the preamp for quite a while before going back to a tube preamp. Or quite a while for him anyway. | |
Simaudio Moon 740P preamp vs. Ayre KX-5 Twenty I have a friend that all three "Twenty" pieces and he thought the preamp was the best of the three pieces. | |
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? This phenomenon pretty much mirrors the product expansion of AV123 with the same results. | |

NUPRIME IDA-16 Integrated Amp setup You can connect your computer to the Nuprime with USB instead of HDMI and if you are using a Windows computer or an Android phone you can buy a Chromecast to start with and connect it via optical to the Nuprime DAC for streaming. For a bit more t... | |
NUPRIME IDA-16 Integrated Amp setup Still no analog outputs and as Denon and Marantz are the same company not surprising. If you only have the three speakers what are you using the AVR for other than the built in streamer and the center channel? | |

NUPRIME IDA-16 Integrated Amp setup Which one you plug into which will depend on which one you intend to use the most as without a doubt the DAC in the Nuprime is better than the one in the Denon. | |

Wyred 4 Sound Class D Mono blocks SX 1000 question Does B&O have newer Icepower modules, sure they do but if you think your amps still sound good then that is all that matters. EJ has had the new 1200as modules in-house for testing them for a while so it is only a matter of time before he dec... | |
Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 Well you could certainly entertain switching to 2301's by making a trade with Audio Classics but I suspect there are other tube amps that meet the requirements. You might want to check in at Audio Aficionado where most of the SF and McIntosh crow... | |
Spatial Audio M3 Triode Master vs Paul Hales Revelation 3 Clayton has an extended trial period you just pick up the shipping. I love mine but they don't have much if anything in common with a box speaker. Whether or not you like them only you would know after listening. |
