| Why the cost increase? The fact that people are still blind enough to find that funny is truly remarkable. | |
| Cary V-12 using KT-77 tubes? I love the Gold Lion KT77 in my opinion the best current production EL34 variant and I've tried quite a few. | |
| Has anyone ever used a company called vacuum tube values to purchase vacuum tubes? I love the Genalex KT77 tube but I will say when I first discovered them I was buying them wherever it was cheapest and had a lot of early tube failures. I started buying them from Upscale Audio paying a bit more and no more early tube failures. | |
| Anyone with Reavon experience? There's a long thread on them over on the Steve Hoffman forums:https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/new-universal-players-from-reavon.1064443/ | |
| New cables - To judge now or after burn in period? @andy2 Siltech was started in 1983 in the Netherlands a very well known silver cable specialist. Silnote is a fairly new US company that I know very little about. | |
| Qobuz sound quality intermittent issues? That's very strange nothing like that has happened to me I have both but use Qobuz 90% of the time. | |
| The first system you had that was "high end/audiophile", by you standards I didn't get into high end audio til the 90s so for me it was an original Rega Planet, Bryston B-60, and some Definitive Technology towers a small basic floorstanding 2-way. | |
| Why the cost increase? Lol @td_dayton and I would say it's safe to assume all companies will be raising prices in the near future, transportation and labor costs pretty much demand it. | |
| New cables - To judge now or after burn in period? Definitely give them some time to break in, they may improve and change some. Siltech makes excellent cables it's worth waiting to see what happens with them. Also after a while swap your QED's in and compare again. | |
| My swarm sub system is in The Absolute Sound !! Gorgeous system and home congrats on the TAS pics! | |
| Which makes the biggest difference? They all make a difference obviously, but the preamp is the hardest thing to get right and to me exerts the biggest influence overall. | |
| New Preamplifier Testing (Poor sound) Maybe give the Dac in the Rotel a shot while you're trying stuff? | |
| Why the cost increase? Health care in this country and the health insurance industry is a sick joke no pun intended. Universal healthcare would be a small step in the right direction of giving every US citizen more dignity and opportunity. | |
| Burn a CD From an Album on the Bluesound Vault? Was this a CD you ripped yourself originally? Or a file you downloaded from someplace? If the file is hi-rez that could be your problem. | |
| Why the cost increase? Blah blah blah. |
