| ls music out of tune with our brains? The vintage vinyl sample sounds better but that just maybe because it's louder but it certainly sounds full and deeper just a richer sound overall. | |
| Speakers Decide Which Amp Is Needed, Or A Tale Of Two Amps Congratulations on getting things figured out and thanks for sharing the process. It sounds like you really took your time and tried to make things work with various gear and also knew when to cut bait and move on. A lot of folks could learn from ... | |
| Who, do you think, designs the best looking tube-based devices? I like the way tubes and transformers look! Lots of great looking gear mentioned Air Tight, Shindo, Leben, Atma-sphere, Electronluv, Luxman. I would add Wavac, Kondo, and vintage Marantz. I find stuff like Dared and Raven a touch too blingy for my... | |
| Harbeth 30.1 or 40.1 That's very funny like @mapman I heard the 40.1s at Deja Vu Audio and Spatial at Cap Audiofest. I heard the 30.2's at both Deja Vu and Cap Audiofest. I like all 3 speakers actually I thought Spatial Audio with LTA was one of the best rooms at Cap... | |
| Harbeth 30.1 or 40.1 gte357 to me there is an optimum listening volume for each piece of music not so much for each speaker. To my ears the difference between the two is the 30.1 images a bit more precisely but the images don't have the density of the 40.1. Also you g... | |
| Harbeth 30.1 or 40.1 To me they are very different speakers I like them both but the 30.1 is a great small monitor speaker. The 40.1 though stand mounted is totally full range you definitely wouldn't need a sub with it. With 30.1's you may not need a sub either unless... | |
| Acrolink Cables, anyone heard them? I should say that since this thread has been revived I tried an Acrolink digital cable a 6N-D5050 a couple years ago. I trashed my regular digital IC in an accident and the Acrolink subbed in nicely. Extremely detailed and transparent though it la... | |
| New Cannonball Adderly recordings ... I LOVE Cannonball Adderly! This has been streaming on Qobuz for a while now, likely Tidal also it's well worth checking out. | |
| Which To Choose...Devore Fidelity O/93 vs Zu Soul Supreme ? Whoopycat nailed it as stated above I'll also add Sean Casey from Zu often uses Pass amps at audio shows and they make a nice combo. | |
| is this the greatest live band of all time? The Dead 68-72 is to me the greatest live band of all time. | |
| to my ears digital audio does not sound natural? something is wrong! I hate to break this to you but not only is digital man made so is music itself and recordings. | |
| Transport identification According to this old Canuck Audiomart ad it’s a Phillips CD Prohttps://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649633485-pacific-valve-aulne-cyclone-cd-transport/Upon closer look it looks like you're the seller in this ad did you just guess as to the las... | |
| Amplifier Upgrade Decision To the OP congrats on your updated system! I've heard the Bricasti gear at Cap Audiofest the last couple years driving Tidal speakers and sounding excellent. | |
| I am looking for help selecting an amplifier to match my Revel F228Be speakers. Mark Levinson would seem to be a natural match since they are designed with Revel. You might also consider the Krell K-300i I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised by it in a show setting, Or since you seem to like the YBA sound these look lik... | |
| Should I leave an Old Krell FPB 400 cx on all the time? Standby is the way to go, turning the amp totally on and off can stress the caps more than just leaving it on or partially on (standby). |
