| Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions The X3s had the advantage because of the Burmester electronics in front of them. Despite that, your Harbeths won out anyway. | |
| Audio envy - dang! I put the Studio Prestige in the system about two hours ago. Sounds great out of the bag, very balanced, well extended and plenty of detail. I was expecting them to sound hard and bright and then settle in over time. They are not bright in the le... | |
| Audio envy - dang! Update, they responded and let me know my order will be shipping out. I bought the Studio Prestige RCA. I will be comparing it to the Beldon 8402 and the Duelund 16 GA ICs. How long is burn in typically with these? | |
| Audio envy - dang! Does anyone know if there is something going on at Audio Envy? I placed on order over 2 weeks ago. I have sent 3 emails and called a few times to check my order status.. They do not answer the phone and have yet to respond to my emails. | |
| LAIV Harmony sim_audio_nerd- Yes indeed I noticed it got better after 150 hours. | |
| LAIV Harmony I’m at about 220 hours. I love this DAC! The Klipsch Cornwall IVs that I am currently using expose everything bad upstream, so far it ’s all good coming out of the speakers. The Laiv is a SMOOTH operator. Very balanced, extended, detailed, and yet... | |
| LAIV Harmony Mine has a little over 100 hours. For the past couple of weeks prior to receiving the Laiv, I was going direct from my streamer to the DAC on my McIntosh 8950 integrated amp. It sounded pretty darn good. Changing to the Laiv, it sounded kind of co... | |
| LAIV Harmony audiostick, I don't have cd player or even a dvd player. Still no internet so I can't connect to the streamer to play anything. I guess cable was cut and the army core of engineers apparently won't let them fix it because of flooding. For those... | |
| LAIV Harmony My Laiv came today. I can't listen to it because the area I'm in is out of wifi service probably until tomorrow night. Bummer. | |
| LAIV Harmony solarjam, thanks for your impressions. As an audiophile with tinnitus, it is good to know the Laiv has a smooth and relaxing nature. | |
| LAIV Harmony audiostick, if you go to the last couple of pages on that thread, there is user impressions, not much before that. smweber2, I ordered May 31st, confirmation said shipping at the end of June. If they moved it to later date, I haven't been not... | |
| Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? Based on the sound description of these, it may be what you are looking for | |
| LAIV Harmony I have one on order. It is supposed to ship at the end of June. Over on headfi, there is a thread with some owners, all positive impressions so far. | |
| Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? larsman, I think with the older Harbeths that was the case, but the new versions are better for rock. I had the Harbeth SHL5plus XD and thought they were pretty good with rock. They even showcased them with a heavy dose of hard rock at one of t... | |
| Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? "Classic rock, hard rock, 80s new wave, punk, pop (classic and modern)". I like these genres too. The frustrating thing is often these recordings sound better on car stereos and headphones than they do on high end systems. For example, about 15 ye... |
