Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Strata, Integrated Amp/DAC/streamer?
@audiotroy,Umm, it’s a US product so attempting to derive or guess at US price from UK price, a$$backwards, especially when PSA has already said US price $3k : )As they say on ESPN, Come on, man!I’d think the Hegel’s would give everything mentione... 
Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Strata, Integrated Amp/DAC/streamer?
Yeah I think there will be a big market for these one box solutions that some call super integrateds (traditional integrated amp plus streaming). There will be a lot of competition and I think soon enough almost all the players will have a competi... 
Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Strata, Integrated Amp/DAC/streamer?
Just to be clear, Paul clarified on PSA site that strata is only 100 wpc into 8 ohms. The 200 wpc is into 4 ohms.  
Has anyone heard the new PS Audio Strata, Integrated Amp/DAC/streamer?
It won’t even begin beta testing for a month or two. You can find a thread on this at the PSA site. These PSA projects always slip. Now they will beta test the m1200 amps before strata. I suspect because of the software difficulties with producing... 
Aurender A10 vs Teac NT505 vs Lumin T2
@big_greg: I am using iOS version of Lumin app, running on iphone.Never have had any issues with it. In fact, it is more stable than the BlueOS system I run at my office during the day. I never get any dropouts with the Teac NT-505 running Lumin a... 
Aurender A10 vs Teac NT505 vs Lumin T2
I’m using the Lumin app without any issues with my Teac NT-505. Works great for streaming Tidal, which is all that I do with it. Fantastic sounding streamer/dac/network player.benzman, please post your impressions of T2 vs NT-505 if those are the ... 
New Member And few questions on First Tube Amp.
My mom has suffered quietly from tinnitus for most of her adult life, and tells me that she gets great relief regarding the previously near constant "ringing" from the hearing aids that she just got (first time), now in her upper 70's age-wise.  N... 
High value, giant killer speakers?
Lots of definitions for giant killers, I suppose, but here’s my experience and what shook out as giant killers for me and the reasons I’m willing to suggest them as such. I went thru a 6 month speaker search where I auditioned a large number of sp...

$3000 stand mounted speakers?
Compact floorstanders taking up same (or less) amount of real estate are so much more sonically satisfying IMO than stand mount bookshelves (my opinion only, but I demand full, room filling sound (which bookshelves can struggle with) -- personal t... 
Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced?
+1 loomisjohnsonOMG I feel exactly same way about those two same brands (and really only these two - none others come to mind in same way) but didn’t want to offend. (About the liking lower models at price point more than upper models v competitio... 
Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced?
+1 4425My opinion only but if there’s one piece of a system where you just can’t afford to compromise, it’s the speakers. Of course I’m not saying everything else doesn’t matter but nothing matters more in terms of the dramatic difference in sound... 
Higher End DACs
OP, right on Mc and BW based on general consensus but I am not familiar with the particular models.  My comments are more illustrative on one simplified way of approaching options.  I’d defer on the dac recommendations because I haven’t experience... 
Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced?
Before one year ago when I bought my Spendor D7’s, my most recent previous speaker purchase (20 yrs ago) was B&W. Thru 90s had lusted after B&W sound and told myself when I get out of school and can afford B&W, that’s what I’m doing an...
