| Grateful Dead May 77 Box Set Announced I ordered the complete box set, but I'm also wondering if the digital download will be 24/192 and represent a decent improvement in sound quality. | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ @czarivey The cost of freight could be twice the cost of the item, which is why I specifically indicated that I use freight for more expensive/heavy items. As as an example, I recently purchased an amp for $5K that weighed approx. 100 lbs. The cos... | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ I've started to ship, and receive, heavier and more expensive gear via a freight carrier. The item ships strapped to its own dedicated pallet and, in my experience, arrives in perfect condition. The cost is roughly double, but you get what you pay... | |
| Berkeley vs Bryston vs Lampizator I’ve had a Lampizator L4, Lite 7 (actually two of them) and now a Big 7. The Big 7 has the newest R2R PCM engine and super clocks--it’s in another league compared to the previous DACs I’ve owned (PS Audio DS, Aqua La Scala, Auralic Vega, and previ... | |
| Best standalone music server? I have the Antipodes DX; it automatically rips CDs to uncompressed FLAC, runs the Roon core natively and the sound is simply amazing. If you can swing it from a budget perspective, you won’t be disappointed. I’ve also had an Aurender N100H, for th... | |
| Dave's Picks 21 & 22 I'm also looking forward to the Dave's Picks Felt Forum show. I have an MP3 soundboard of the 12/7/71 show, the Smokestack Lightning is pretty amazing. | |
| Dave's Picks 21 & 22 It's also the first time the Dead played at the Boston Garden. | |
| Harbeth & VAC combo I used a Rogue Cronus Magnum with Harbeth SHL5+ and did not like the pairing at all. As a result of that experience, I swore off using Harbeth with tubes....until some Agon members encouraged me to give tubes another go. I recently switched from a... | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following I've used Acoustic Zen cables (Double Barrel Shotgun and Absolute) with Harbeth SHl5+, feel like they are both a great match. | |
| Harbeth & VAC combo How big is your room? | |
| Robert Lee recommends Triode Corp, but... @simao Have you tried rolling the preamp tubes on the LSA? I owned an LSA Statement and was really able to tailor the sound by tube rolling. I liked all of the following Amperex 7308 gold pin, Telefunken E88CC and Ediswan CV2492/6922. Jason | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master Could it have been the music selection; the styles were completely different in each room? I don't recall the DAC being used in the small room with the Sabrinas. | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master @knghifi I liked the Sabrinas, I would be curious to hear how they sound with two VAC Phi 200s run in mono. Jason | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master I was also lucky enough to hear the Wilson/MSB demo at Fidelis AV. From a visual stand point the Alexx are definitely an acquired taste, but the sound was truly amazing. The soundstage encompassed the entire room and the sense of scale was really ... | |
