| Some love for the Benchmark HPA4/LA4 What are you using for amp/source/dpeakers?what other preamps did you compare against, if any? | |
| High end stereo preamps? Worth it? Yes, they are, in answer to posted original question. But the dac direct is a nice fallback if cost prohibits getting a good preamp. | |
| In Search Of... Desktop All-In-One Stretch to $999 and get Marantz pm7000n. Best all in one under $1k with streaming. Class A/B power. Streaming built in, wired or wireless. I own one for office use and am happy. The improvement I gained over my previous class D Bluesound Powernode... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 OP,How did the D9’s work out? Still have them? How did your electronics shake out? | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Do your own research. Lots of good options.HiFinews magazine did a review of the Cambridge Audio Edge A ($6k msrp) and declared it to be about as good as a Hegel H590, at double the cost of the Edge A. Reprint of review here:https://www.cambridgea... | |
| Audio envy - dang! Which is better, full loom of Audio Envy or full loom of Anticables at comparative price point?sorry for the random question, but if anyone has compared would be interested to hear impressions | |
| TEAC NT-505 impossible connecting to WiFi router o such LAN: help me please? To know which setting to select on the Teac XLR output, you need to know what the input device (e.g., amp, preamp, active speakers, etc) is expecting with respect to the XLR hot pin, and set accordingly. | |
| Rega Brio-R vs Elicit-R Sorry, I wouldn't be able to comment with any degree of certainty because I heard them at different times with different speakers and equipment etc. I suspect that any differences in tonal balance result from the differing release dates (I think ... | |
| Rega Brio-R vs Elicit-R I’ve heard all three but never in a controlled head to head or even at the same time. So it’s difficult to compare with any degree of accuracy. Each will obviously have similar house sound, and as you go up the ladder you’ll get "more" of it - no ... | |
| Audio Research or Macintosh? In general, ARC >>> Mc in SQ. My opinion only. Parasound?? Hardly. Also, ARC no longer owned by Mc if memory serves. Mc has almost infinitely more models though and hits every price point from budget to expensive. Also probably looks nice... | |
| Rega Aethos integrated, impressions, opinions...? I’m interested in this as well, especially if anyone is able to compare versus other similarly priced integrated amps | |
| Rega Brio-R vs Elicit-R I’ve heard both amps. It’s a significant jump. Even the jump to Elex-R is huge. I’d say the jump from brio to elex much larger than jump from elex to elicit ymmv | |
| Choosing an Amplifier to go with Spendor D7 OP, I have heard the Luxman with some other speakers but not Spendor. It’ll be awhile yet until I make the upgrade. | |
| REL T/9i or S5 No comparison in quality between those two. I own an S5. | |
| Choosing an Amplifier to go with Spendor D7 I use Audio Research DSI200 with my D7’s. Within couple years hoping to upgrade to D9.2 and Luxman 590AXii |
