Auralic Aries G2.1 used with Holo May KTE. Good match? It should work just fine Auralic plays well with most Dacs I've used my Aries G1 with a couple different ones with no issues. No experience with Holo May but try asking on the Auralic forums pretty sure some guys use it there. https://community.a... | |
Do speakers need to be re-broken in? You may find they sound better after a few days of playing as things loosen up but I wouldn't expect any extended break-in. But you never know just listen to music and see what happens. | |
Soft pops in one channel No problem and always have a pair of backup tubes on hand. | |
Soft pops in one channel Your Pathos is a hybrid I assume? Sounds like a tube going bad. | |
why is it such a PIA to post a bloody photo here ? this platform is cranky as hell ! @elliottbnewcombjr I am aware of that every pic I've tried to post is hosted online. It still won't work unfortunately. | |

Speaker cables with good timbre +1 on Auditorium23 I use the interconnects and not the speaker cables their tone is fantastic. I'd say the same for my speaker cables Audio Note Lexus another copper design. The two play very well together. | |
NOS Amperex 211 vacuum tube Those are some fantastic tubes don't sell them unless you sell your amp! | |
DeVore O/93 or PureAudioProject Duet15 for a First Watt SIT-3? Can we maybe just say we all like what we like? Some folks like narrow baffle speakers, some like wide and some like open baffles? It’s preference and not a contest folks! And @ulul I find sensitive speakers in general to be good for lower level ... | |
why is it such a PIA to post a bloody photo here ? this platform is cranky as hell ! Pretty sure what happened is when they first rolled out the ability to post pics it worked fine. But now Agon seems to be incompatible with Firefox my preferred browser. I can't post pics and also can't edit my virtual system. Both work fine if I ... | |
From Sonus Faber Extrema to... Roberto lovely room and balanced system, those Extrema's are classics Franco Serblin designs I believe. You haven't really said what you're looking to improve if anything I'd suspect low bass. Have you considered trying pairing a really good sub w... |
