| Amp repair cost — is this right? @grannyring @atmasphere @teo_audio - thank you for the direct experiential feedback and thanks to everyone else for what turned out to be a FAR more lively discussion than I ever imagined when I posed the question!At this point my plan is to conta... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? @ptss The tech I spoke to was Corey, not Bill, but yes he was very helpful and patient on the phone. Regardless of the cost questions surrounding my particular situation, it was an interaction that would make me feel good about doing business with... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? When I pulled out the bad cap I googled for a matching replacement based on the same specs printed on the side and the measurements I took using a caliper. There were around 10 brands available and costs varied from $5 to $20 per cap. That's for t... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? Hi everyone. Thanks to @jafant for the suggestion I reached out to Music Technology in Virginia and spoke to a very helpful tech. He said they charge $120/hr for labor, plus a flat $25 fee for little stuff like diodes, resistors, and disposal cost... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? @charles1dad Some are doing that, and I do appreciate it. Others are talking about bathroom remodels and bad experiences with Musical Fidelity, or ranting about their former career. I already know what the amp is worth to me. So while I appreciate... | |
| Amp repair cost — is this right? Thanks, I get the perspective that the amp is intrinsically more valuable to me fixed. I'm not taking a short view. And I'm not worried about the money in and of itself. I've got $1,300 I can spend. My question isn't "should I invest $1,300 to fix... | |

| Amp repair cost — is this right? @dekay There was nothing difficult about that. There’s a new email address since they were bought by ProJect. Someone in Austria forwarded my email to a person in Canada who works for MF North America and I had a response the next morning. He aske... | |
| Next Best Upgrade for Tidal MQA? @bruxesq Again with my caveat that I haven't tried Dirac, everything I've read claims that Dirac and RoomPerfect are in another galaxy versus Audyssey. I've used regular Audyssey and it definitely doesn't compare in any way with RoomPerfect, but n... | |
| Next Best Upgrade for Tidal MQA? @bruxesq I've not used a MiniDSP but I believe you could put one in between your receiver and Parasound amp. It will digitize the incoming analog signal from your pre-outs, perform DIRAC processing to correct the room issues, then spit out an anal... | |
| Next Best Upgrade for Tidal MQA? Two words: Room CorrectionMaybe look at a MiniDSP or something like that | |
| MQA DAC with Coax Output @zombiedad that picture means Roon took care of the first unfold for you, but the DAC is not applying the MQA digital filter. An MQA file consists of two parts. First, the higher res file is “folded” or “packed” down into 48khz. Second, informatio... | |

| Wanting to get back into the hobby and want to start with the speakers. I just ordered (but haven't yet received) a pair of Alta Audio Alec speakers. I won't provide a recommendation either way until I actually have them in my system, but I thought I would share them with you as this comment was in a very recent revie... | |
