| Great Plains Audio Larry when I go to the site it says Buy Now at our online store, with a big Horn in the background covering the entire site. Sorry for the confusion saying Shop Now and you should see that when you open the site. Tried to take a screenshot but not... | |
| Cant find much info on Art Audio Vinyl Reference Phono @jimbones So you have the unit in house how do you like it? | |
| Great Plains Audio Larry as soon as I log onto the Great Plains site it says Shop Now and that link takes me to that shopify site. So yes it's legit and sorry about the price increases always a bummer. | |
| External Hard Drive I use Western Digital Red drives in my NAS and knock on wood it's been 4 years and not a failure. I have not tried one of their external drives so can't comment there but they make good products. And buy the 8TB I bought 4TBs myself and am almost ... | |
| Kuzma Stabi Reference vs Avid Acutus You said more musical ever consider going vintage? A nicely restored Garrard 301 or Thorens TD-124 would certainly give you a different flavor and skew in the direction of musical. | |
| Why Don't Local Audio Dealers Provide Tube Testing Services When They Sell Tube Gear? I am lucky my dealer, Deja Vu Audio, has several tube testers and tests tubes for me all the time. If I didn't have that luxury I might seriously invest in a tube tester. | |

| You just won a $5,000 audio gear only gift card A Thorens TD-124 with Ortofon arm and cartridge. | |
| Speaker manufacturers or box manufacturers with off the shelf drivers? My speakers are Audio Note AN-J/lx's, Audio Note makes their own drivers and is obsessive about matching drivers in a stereo pair. From their website: Consistent performance is a major issue in loudspeaker design and unfortunately all drive unit... | |
| Which good discrete R2R multibit DAC & why NOS ? Also you own a great CD player I would think most Dac's would be at best a lateral move. | |
| Which good discrete R2R multibit DAC & why NOS ? In this instance NOS means non over sampling not new old stock. | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i @jetter There's nothing wrong with your system your Museatex-Meitner Dac is just better than what's in the Node. Same with my Auralic Aries Mini its internal Dac is just ok, outputting to an external Dac it sounds great. |
