| 300B SET vs.Triode Strapped KT150's??? What are the amps in question? I would say unlikely though in all honesty I have yet to hear the KT-150 tube. I will say however that to my ears tube rectification makes a big difference and sounds far superior to SS rectification. YMMV. | |
| Dick's / Dave's picks Listened to a chunk of it last night it was ok nothing special. Sadly David is running out of really good shows to release. | |
| I can't play a recording all the way through Try not just listening to songs even listen to entire albums. That's what I usually do and I feel like it really helps draw me into the music rather than using the system as a jukebox. And congrats on the new system! | |
| Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications? I would have to agree with cerrot on all counts above 320kbps just does not cut it. The Lightning DS app I use displays the sample rate of what’s playing though it varies it’s usually in the 1000kbps range with Tidal as well as my own recordings t... | |
| Sonic Frontier Line 3 vs McIntosh C2500 fijunc I would say it's probably a better allocation to go the upgrade route, the preamp you have is well made with a robust power supply. And upgrade and refresh of older parts after 15 years may be a bit of a revelation soundwise, and I don't kn... | |

| Capital Audio Fest 2016 Spencer I was in that room Saturday and I am amazed the sub wasn't turned on I assumed it was so pretty stunning bass from those speakers for their size. Also the musical selections in that room were fantastic and a lot of fun, kudos to your DJ! | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC rinpoche if you are soliciting opinions on Tidal then I will weigh in as loving it. I think the sound quality is excellent for the most part one thing to keep in mind though is the source they are using, i.e. some are remasters some are not, some ... | |
| When and what was your last significant equipment upgrade? @winoguy17 UPS is making preamps now? :p Come on tell us what you’re getting dude! | |
| Job Integrated Amp. @devilboy Nice looking speakers and they look fairly easy to drive at 89 db and 6 ohms. Are you looking for another integrated? If you don't issues with tubes they look like a nice match for a pushpull tube amp or integrated. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... the Prosthetic Cubans is an awesome band name thanks for sharing that for the name as well as the music! | |
| When and what was your last significant equipment upgrade? May 2016 replaced my Sonos Connect with an Auralic Aries Mini and no more streaming dropouts! | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Bob yes indeed congrats on your daughters nuptials and I am sure you were and are a very proud poppa! |
