| Whats playing on your system today? Digawolf Interesting artist from Yellowknife Canada. Good variety of electronic music meets indigenous sound. Example: https://open.spotify.com/track/6u8nWgcGvAyBXrkyMhjTjD | |
| Tune of the Day Ryan Adams? Seriously? Hardly much musical talent either.. more for pop lovers. Listening to: Pseudoscience Fiction, by Kristian North | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @simonmoon "Mary Halvorson - Amaryllis / The best jazz release from 2022. This extremely creative guitarist has been on a role lately. This is complex, progressive jazz with great playing by all members." Some nice music in there, although lik... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @oddiofyl the Gary Clark album is nice, but poorly recorded.. | |
| list of speakers One of the most impressive things I've seen on these forums for the last one year. Wow. Would love to see ATC, Genelec, Dutch & Dutch and Kii there :) | |
| New streamer Lindemann Limetree Bridge II.. but with an MCRU linear power supply. So good that in my room it matches the double the price Eversolo A8 (not A6, which is sibilant by comparison). | |

| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Passives: Dynaudio ATC Spendor Maybe KEF's Reference series Martin Logan (only ESL) Actives: Genelec Ones (8351B or 8361B) Dutch & Dutch Dynaudio Focus series ATC Pro SCM series (which look fugly) | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Sorry to rejuvenate an old thread, but what do you go for in the end? I'm thinking of dCS Lina now - both streamer and DAC in one go. | |
| Speaker Cable Recommendation Cardas or Mogami. I find Mogami makes very humbly priced but superlative gear. | |
| Should I graduate to floor standers or will larger bookshelves suffice? Bookshelves that are well made will thump just as well as many floorstanders. Genelec 8351B or Dynaudio Confidence/Contour lines, or ProAc. And if you really need the low end, which in modern city apartments is seldom missed on speakers like these... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Square 1 by Charlie Winston.. | |
| dacs that I have had in my system - a listing So the notion that RME ADI-2 Pro is clean and German, and gets out of the way, and we don’t need (and shouldn't need) anything more from a DAC.. is it not true? :) | |
| Recommend me a DAC under 3k Why not RME ADI-2 Pro? |
