| The problem with PLC Audiogon is fairly good at providing a highly visible platform for high performing under the radar audio equipment. That alone will help the success of the perfect speaker company as long as it sounds good. If it measures good but sounds sucky the... | |
| The new LSA Signature 50 Monitor "Disruptive Product" I agree that Walter's website could be better. However, I can find what I need on it and he always returns calls. He has given me lots of advice over the years and I think that our ears are similar. I get that someone may not like one or more o... | |
| Review on AricAudio Motherlode MKII preamplifier @rocray I hope that I love it! @laaudionut I have been listening to my system and it sounds great. But like a true audiophile or audiophool, I am chasing even better sonics. Go figure. | |
| Review on AricAudio Motherlode MKII preamplifier The XL is fully balanced. I did not need that as my Zavfino interconnects are RCA. The upgraded caps are supposed to provide a blacker background for sure. | |
| Review on AricAudio Motherlode MKII preamplifier Just ordered the Motherlode II preamp with upgraded caps. It'll be a few weeks before it arrives, however, I am itching to hear it. Lord knows I do not need another preamp - yet, I could not resist another one to drop in my rotation. | |
| Upgrading Aerial Acoustics Model 7T I have the 7Ts. I am stunned by their performance. There is no criticism of this tremendously balanced speaker. | |

| Speaker Cable Recommendations - Under 2k Zavfino cables are awesome | |
| Waht is the best streamer for the money under $2500 (no DAC or storage required). I second the Teac 505 | |
| CD and Network Streamers @mahler123 I recently got the 6 TB Melco server along with their CD ripper. Superb sonics. I stream thru my Teac dac and a Synergistic ethernet switch. The cd and the streamed files sound close but not exactly the same. Nevertheless, one does ... | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices PassLabs X150.5 rotating in rotation Don Sachs tube amp running in triode; . Listening to my system so much that I have to slide a solid state amp or two in the rotation to save my tubes. I have Spatial X5 speakers. Interesting they do better w... | |
| Class D with high efficiency speakers @tweak1 no the Voyager is not stock it has the EVS mod. | |
| Revel F208 - worth a try? A really nice polite speaker. I sold my F208s a while back and replaced them with Spatial X5s. | |
| Fantasy or reality? Inexpensive solid state preamps that get you 80% there? I second the SPLElector solid state preamp. Awesome performer. | |
| Quobuz subscription I have Qobuz. I like the sound quality on my reference system. I suspect the artists make good money off streaming as there is a lot more streaming volume per artist than sales of the same physical media. |
