| This cable game is making my head spin Another vote here for Cardas. I have Clear, Clear Reflection and Neutral Reference in my rig and they are superb. If your looking for more of a analog sound as opposed to hyper detail, then you will not be disappointed. | |
| Digital Interconnects - Which one is the BEST ??!! I played with USB and was not blown away by the performance vs USB cable price point ($500 max) and I wasn’t willing to go down the Usb cable rabbit hole. For the money, I thought digital coax sounded better. | |
| Wow....just look at this guy's car audio..... Just looking at that mess of cables gives me extreme anxiety! 😱 | |
| Cable brands that work well with Cardas? Thanks for all the responses. Ultimately at some point I’ll go for the Clear Reflection although not anytime soon. It’s a shame that I can’t jump on that sale that @akg_ca pointed out. Truth be told, I don’t find the cable game to be fun…it’s more... | |
| Too many choices for R2R DACS--opinions appreciated Denafrips Terminator…love it. It slightly exceeded my budget but I thought it stomped on every other Dac I had listened to in the $2K-$3500 range (used), of course ymmv. also keep in mind your choice of connection can have a significant impact on ... | |
| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs @tommypenngotti Absolutely zero boom. Rel actually is spot on with their claim of it’s sonic characteristics . | |
| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs @tommypenngotti My room is smaller than yours and I’m using a Rel S/510 with my Reference 3A monitors. space permitting Id go with two of them. The Rel S Line is awesome, musical, fast and dynamic. It blew away the T-9X that it replaced. | |
| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs needing a sub and wanting a sub are two separate camps…I initially tried it just for fun and found adding a sub to be a total game changer. | |
| How do you judge audio components and speakers? Where I’m at in the game there needs to be marco as opposed to micro level of improvement when upgrading. Visually, when deciding upon a new piece of gear, I look for speakers that are extremely well constructed and inert, components should have t... | |
| The Music at AXPONA 2022 @audioguy85 Cmon’ man, you don’t have four 15’s in your trunk and drive around rattling the fillings out of everyone’s teeth? | |
| The Music at AXPONA 2022 I followed the show via a few YouTube channels and the level of Audiophile crap being played was nauseating. Whereas, MBL 101e room seemed to have a great playlist going. | |
| Do you build anything for your high fidelity system? If so, what do you make? @jond Thank you. I’m notorious for effin’ stuff up, the HiFi Gods blessed me on this one. 😁 @curiousjim Thanks! on the shelf is a Denafrips Terminator and Aurender N100SC. | |
| Do you build anything for your high fidelity system? If so, what do you make? I usually don’t mess with stuff but I couldn’t justify spending $$$ on a rack so I modified my Pottery Barn end table into a HiFi rack using thick slabs of reclaimed wood to fabricate a shelf for my Dac/Streamer and a plinth for the amp to sit upo... | |
| Reference 3A upgrades! @testpilot Before obtaining the RV I had looked for a set of the 40th, not an easy find. Understandably so. | |
