| Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD @macg19 if you go pass labs for the 40’s i would suggest staying with their x series and not xa series papa nelson dials in some extra midrange/midbass flesh/body into his xa series voicing, trading off some pristine treble and deep bass grip i... | |
| Luxman vs Accuphase for Harbeth 40.3 XD in my experience with the bog harbeths i liked an amp with both strong bass damping factor/grip and also a little extra treble energy as the speakers tend to be a little midrange and bass rich in tonality so, for example, i preferred hegel 590 ov... | |
| About ready to give up on Roon and my streamer i would suggest an eversolo master or gustard r26 as excellent performing, high value streamer/dacs -- i use both with roon, flawlessly - zero setup or drop out issues. lovely sound | |
| Warm sounding 6922 Type Tubes re-reading the whole thread, if tinnitis is a serious issue for the op leading to great sensitivity to treble notes, this may be the best option https://www.schiit.com/products/lokius?Finish=542&AC%20Adapter=544&gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwxa... | |

| Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers i have found the david belles amps to be slightly on the bright side of neutral (this is true even for his wonderful sa30 class a unit, which i have kept), a consistent trait/voicing of his products relative to other serious solid state amps such ... | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing The Cambridge cxn v2 modded by ModWright is so easy to listen to but I feel it lacks some detail. i love my modwrighted cxn v2 for its ability to tube roll and thusly materially shape its sonic attributes, as dan uses the 6dj8 pair directly in ... | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing @tksteingraber Because of your analysis I picked up a Gustard r26 with an Audio Magic M-1 fuse. Wow this Dac blew me away. I am hearing things I have never heard before in a very nice black background. Very pleased with my purchase and the pric... | |
| Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers fritz’s speakers come with a very high end be tweeter or a more forgiving (but less resolving) cloth dome tweeter the carrera be and its ilk are best used with uber smooth refined solid state, such as hegel, pass, ayre, primare i-30, and so on t... | |

| KT-77 vs. KT-66 just remember, flexibility in use in a piece of gear (especially tube gear) usually trades off peak performance optimization even with true auto bias now offered in some modern tech tube amps, if a designer/engineer truly optimizes his unit for a... | |
| Does someone’s opinion affect your opinion? @yogiboy @roxy54 i think @roxy54 needs to branch out into correcting grammar.... 😂 | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing let me come back and tackle some important queries posed... I wonder if your final 3 would have changed if did not have a preference for a volume control? for fixed output dacs, i would put a few i have had in the same sonic league (or very cl... | |
| KT-77 vs. KT-66 as a generality, kt66/6l6 tubes are basically a weaker (less powerful) el34 -- they will usually sound weaker/slower in the bass, and sometimes a touch more ’beautiful’ in a classic tubey manner in the lower treble, mids and upper bass but obviou... |
