| Tube amp Friendly Speaker That Sounds like Klipsch Cornwall Volti Audio--Razz and Rival--could be worth a look. | |
| Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment @antigrunge2. I set up Squeazebox/Ipeng, it was very easy. I was surprised by how much better this solution was than Roon; the music was clearer, the background was quieter and there was greater dimension. I really love the Roon interface and d... | |
| Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment The magic of the Innuos, and really any high-end audio gear, is the quality of the power supply design. | |
| Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment @antigrunge2 Thank you, I’ll fool around with it tonight and let you know what I think. | |
| Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment @antigrunge2 Was it straight forward to set up Ipeng? I’m interested in trying that out. | |
| Innuos Zenith mk3 complete disappointment I have a Zenith Mk.3, the sound is stunning and represents a very noticeable upgrade over the solution it replaced (SGC i5 + LPS for Roon Core, Synology NAS, opticalRendu + LPS). I am running Roon Core and Roon player from the Zenith. I’m also usi... | |
| Does the Rogue Cronus Magnum III have any real competition in its same price point of $3k? @yogiboy Nope, but since the OP didn’t mention that as a requirement; why give a list of stuff that he is not interested in? | |
| Vfet / SIT Amplifiers I have a SIT-3, which is paired with a Supratek pre and Klipsch Forte III speakers. The Supratek has high gain, which I dial back about 40% via the gain pot and still have plenty of drive and wonderful sound. I mostly listen at reasonable volumes ... | |

| A deeper more holographic soundstage. I agree with the comments on the room making a big impact. In this room, I had exceptional depth. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/6378#&gid=1&pid=1In this room, I didn't have the same depth (but the speakers are the same model). The s... | |
| Uptone EtherRegen You’re very welcome. The solution is probably a bit overkill. It seemed like the FMC made a bigger difference before I had the etherRegen, but since there was a fiber port available--and I already had the FMC--I made use of it. I’m going to experi... | |
| Uptone EtherRegen To use fiber with the etherRegen, you’ll need three components: Qty. 1: Fiber Media Converter (FMC)https://www.smallgreencomputer.com/collections/systemoptique/products/fiber-ethernet-converter-bundl....Qty. 2: OM1 SFP Modules https://www.smallgre... | |
| Uptone EtherRegen I’m also a fan of the etherRegen. I use a fiber media converter to run fiber into the etherRegen and then use a Supra Cat 8 cable out of the etherRegen and into the Zenith Mk.3. The sum of these changes made a big difference.I'm still using the st... | |
| High Output Preamp for First Watt SIT-3? @tvad I’m using a Supratek Cabernet with a SIT-3, it’s a really synergistic pairing. My speakers are Klipsch Forte III’s, however, which are very efficient. The gain adjustment comes in handy on horns. | |
| Overrated/Underrated Underated: Duelund DCA16GA speaker wireOverrated: Kimber KS-3035 speaker cable Had them at the same time, much preferred the $90 Duelund wire. |
