| Lumin X1 or dCS Bartok Thanks guys. I will look into the mentioned. | |
| Rockna Wavelight thoughts? So the Hydra Vox one box version DAC bettered the Wavedream?? Interesting... | |
| Lumin X1 or dCS Bartok I can’t help but think that not including a digital-in of any kind is a major oversight on Lumin part. It would be absolutely perfect for my needs if it had even just one. I still want to run cd transport alongside streaming... isn’t there another... | |
| Harbeth vs Graham audio I heard the 40.2 and the Graham LS5/9 —or was it the LS5/8? It was the bigger of the two— in the same system one day a couple years ago. The Graham’s have that spike in the presence region. It does bring more life to strings and more perceived det... | |
| Tube Buffer Dan Wright of Modwright will have a tube buffer coming, presumably at some point soon. You can find a thread on it over on AudioCircle in his circle. | |
| Lampizator Amber 3 DAC versus Primaluna EVO 100 DAC Lampizator has been doing his/their thing for DACs many many years and are now seasoned and matured music making machines. And with trickledown aspects from $18k and $30k units, you cant go wrong. | |
| PrimaLuna Dialogue Preamp = emotionless? An interesting item of note is TIMING. When I use my DAC>amp pathway in the system, there is a purity, openness and (maybe most importantly) a cohesive-timing aspect that is a big plus... When using my $$$ preamp, all sorts of ‘audiophile’ aspe... | |
| Grimm findings on streaming audio I’ve wondered about this recently, as a handful of years ago or so, there was talk around watermarking the music and trying to get it right. The skilled text listeners could always hear it. | |
| Lampizator Big7 as a preamp Lampi straight to amp is a pathway I love so much every time I switch to it. | |
| Can you put a Krell in an apartment? I’m sensing you going against all instincts here and getting the amp... I’ve done that before too. Makes for a longer road (and $$) than expected to get where you're ultimately meant to be. | |
| Replacing Manley Neo-Classic 300B How bout the new tubed pre from Tortuga Audio, with its LDR attenuator? Supposed to be a pretty darn transparent attenuator. | |
| Lampizator Amber 3 You’ll love it the way it is. Then after some time get a couple of the tubes mentioned as replacements in for a try. In my Atlantic, even the rectifier tube can yield markedly improved presentation changes. But better heard once you are familiar w... | |
| Chord Dave Trusted member looking for a demo/hangout with a Dave... Anyone in the Indianapolis area with a Chord Dave DAC wanna bring it over to a pretty good system and room, drop me a message. Or if you know of one around here, let them know. | |
| Who needs a Preamp?? I do both... A tubed DAC w/ VC straight to amp OR either ss or tube DAC to DHT pre. But when it really counts to hear a new live release for the first time, it’s DAC to amp for sure...and that’s with owning a $15k pre—lol. | |
| Recommend speakers for a large living room Daedalus Audio. look into Lou’s biggest. |
