Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated I didnt read through the thread so apologies if someone already suggested PS Audio stellar pre and amp. I know its seperates but they wouldnt take up any more room than a Hegel or Classe Sigma. They will take your mac in on trade and you can ret... | |
I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong I have supported a certain type of database technology for most of my career. Good product. But about 25 years ago they came out with a very bad version of the product and then a bit slow to rectify the situation along with a few other issues. ... | |
Wadia dead? Well I know my LD is a Mac dealer and they do not have Wadia. I put in my zip code in Wadia's website and there is not a dealer in the Denver area. I used a New York zip code and got 2 dealers. I just got off the phone with one of the New York... | |

Preamps How about the new Rogue Audio RP-9? Uses the Russian 6H30P tubes.I have the RP-1 and really like it, wish I could afford the 9 :). Rogue is a great company to work with. http://www.rogueaudio.com/Products_RP9.htm | |
Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers) I don’t know anything about this amp other than what I read here, "Proprietary Class D implementation", not ICE or Hypex. I have heard it in action with a vinyl source, Moon phono stage and some BMW 702 speakers and I thought it all sounded reall... | |

RadioParadise streaming FLAC Just verified. It appears that Github link is to an old API for Ac320 | |
RadioParadise streaming FLAC @hgeifmanNo FLAC stream URL that I know of. I think there is an API as I saw this on GitHub. https://github.com/marco79cgn/radio-paradise/releases/tag/v1.0-beta Not sure that will work for what your need. I sent an email to one of the developers w... | |
