| Speakers that disappear Had some in the back seat of my unlocked car disappear. | |
| Small speaker advice I will echo what @bgross recommended. The Ls3/5a is a magical speaker. I heard a pair of the limited edition Falcon Acoustics gold badge about a month ago and was smitten. So much so that I couldn’t get them out of my head. I ended up buying the F... | |
| Several used sonos faber il cremonese for sale. why? I recall reading he has MC901s in a previous post somewhere here. No idea about preamp. | |
| Scout's Honor No Internet Search R n' R Triva questions (4) I don’t know even a guess for 2,3 or 4 but for 1 I would guess Van Halen and The Cars. | |
| Would McIntosh Auto Transformers affect speaker sound? And one of the world’s best solid state amplifiers uses autoformers. | |
| DACs - Holo/Kitsune, Bricasti, PS Audio, dCS, etc T+A, Lampizator, Denafrips (I have a Pontus II 12th with a Hermes DDC), Chord, Mola Mola. I’ve not owned any other than the Denafrips but the others get a lot of interest on here. If you post the characteristics you’re looking for from your DAC ... | |
| DACs - Holo/Kitsune, Bricasti, PS Audio, dCS, etc I understand what you’re saying and customer support is an important aspect in making a purchase. However, if that’s a deal breaker then don’t buy from Holo Audio or Kitsune. There are too many excellent DACs out there to get worked up over one ... | |
| Fair Blind Test?? I don’t know what’s required to make it valid, but I can clearly hear a difference between the two sources. | |
| dCS Bartok Apex vs McIntosh DA2 - Trouble Hearing the Difference @mdalton thats certainly an impressive resume. I don’t discount his findings I just don’t know how to reconcile his measurements with the specs from McIntosh. They might not be the same thing. I certainly don’t have the background nor have I read ... | |
| dCS Bartok Apex vs McIntosh DA2 - Trouble Hearing the Difference @mdalton I saw that in the review but I don’t see those numbers reflected in McIntosh’s specs, I see 114db for the amp. Just not sure where the reviewers are getting their numbers. | |
| dCS Bartok Apex vs McIntosh DA2 - Trouble Hearing the Difference @mdalton having just read that review I’m not sure where that amp SNR is coming from. The MA9500 specs read as 114db for the amp SNR. What am I missing? | |

| I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do? My therapist tells me I have trouble making decisions. You’re making it way too hard and overthinking this. Seems like you’re going to have regrets whichever choice you make. Pick a lane, don’t look back and enjoy your speakers. | |
| Acoustic treatment ideas Glad you got it sorted. $600 is pretty cheap for big improvements. I have a velvet acoustic curtain in my room also that works pretty well. If you have a mic and a laptop you can use software like REW to take some measurements if you’re interes... | |
| I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do? Can you see and listen to them before purchasing? If not, do you trust what the seller tells you about the condition and how well they were taken care of and how hard they were run? If not, then buy new and don’t look back. @tony1954 makes a good ... |
