DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 @mitch2 The buying experience went well. I used paypal. Vincent sent me a link to pay. Took about 3 weeks to get? Around that, pretty quick all in all. My Salk speakers took just under 6 months, so I was prepared to wait some.Vincent has answ... | |
DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 I was at your place few months ago. I had a Metrum Onyx. I researched basically the same models. I got the Totaldac core d1, which is in your price range. I wanted NOS R2R. I figured I did not want to put much towards DSD as that takes out th... | |
"Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial most of the recordings I enjoyed when I was younger, I can't listen to on digital. I have to get vinyl to enjoy them. | |
Most organic / real / analogue sounding DAC (ideally with Volume Control) for $1500?????? Download the HQPlayer trial. It makes my digital as close to vinyl that I have yet heard | |
Metrum Acoustics closed? Thanks for the info. | |
Best debut album James Gang Yer Album | |
Can speakers be stored in a garage? Some desiccant would help keep moisture out. What about mice? | |
Best 6NS7 Preamp for a Pass Labs XA25 amp +1 for Aric Audio. I have the xa25 with an Aric Audio Unlimited preamp. | |
Pure Class A SS vs Tube Amp +1 Reno Hifi | |
Pure Class A SS vs Tube Amp Having just recently purchased the Pass xa25 I can attest to the sound. Tight bass, amazing resolution and clarity. A 'you are there' quality to the sound. | |
Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? +1 Aric Audio. I have the Unlimited and it is a great preamp. | |
Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? Hi aricaudioI have some 12ax7 and some 5751. All have mu between 1450 and 1500. Love the preamp, BTW. | |
Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? Ok, I contacted Fritz. : ) | |
Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? You know jbrrp, between you and almarg, I think you have both nailed it. Lower sensitivity and speaker placement. Makes sense.geof3, I would love to put my speakers in a better position. But if I do I will always be unhappy with where they are.... | |
Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? I've been curious about Fritz speakers. They're not as efficient as I am looking for. Funny, they say a set amp will drive them then recommend a 30 Watt minimum |
