| Qobuz Coming to America Soon! Really hope this pans out. Ready to dump Tidal. | |
| PS Audio Stellar vs. Classe Running that exact setup into Classic ESL 9’s. Using an Arcam AVR 850 for pass through multichannel. Fantastic combination. | |
| What combo for Rega Planar 3 The new Sprout 100 sounds perfect for this | |
| Suggestions for Full Range Speakers up to 10K I find the 702 S2’s too bright on the top. At first listen they sound really nice but that quickly faded for me. | |
| Apple TV Streaming Sound Quality vs Streamer? Apple TV streaming sounds really poor. I was excited to get the Tidal app on it but it just sounds poor via hdmi into an Arcam AVR 850. Ok for tv but not for audio. | |
| Which laptop to stream Spotify to integrated amp via DAC? I recently bought a new MacBook Air with SSD for $1k. Absolutely quiet and sounds phenomenal using MacBook Air -> Tidal -> Audirvana -> Hegel HD25. | |
| Oyaide Cables Anyone recommend a reputable dealer for USA delivery? | |
| best way to connect pc to dac I don’t know about the Node 2 but I can tell you that the sound coming from my Sonos vía coax to a Hegel 25 sounds terrible compared to my iMac via usb to the Hegel. | |
| Dac - Preamp connection problems Pretty sure the wadia dock has a volume control via its remote. | |
| Need reasonably priced balanced preamp Thanks all for taking the time to respond. Would like to spend less than 2k and the Classe pre's that were recommended look good. Already have an old sonic frontiers sfp-1 phono stage so the phono isn't really needed. Also will rethink the balance... | |
| Rega Saturn and Apollo-How good are they?? I just picked up a used apollo to see what the fuss is. My intent was to put it in my office system (cary sli-80, paradigm studio 20's). After listening for a few hours I moved it up to the big rig, and i've been pretty stunned. The layering is qu... | |
| Thiel/Crutchfield Seems like a cheap way to audition them at home for the cost of one way shipping. I really can't believe they are going to sell many of these sound unheard. I can just imagine the sound of the 3.7's on a nice sony reciever and dvd player! | |
| Soliloquy 5.0 need stands? i used to have the 5.0's with the soliloquy stands. I loaded the stands up with play sand and can tell you for a fact that your kid is not gonna knock them over. When i sold the 5.0's I hated to see the stands go with them. They make a tremendous ... | |
| Should I upgrade my Levinson 38S preamp to 380S? I replaced my 38S two years ago with the 380S. I still have the 380S today and it has been a wonderful upgrade. The 38S, while having a very low noise floor, has a very antiseptic sound, e.g. clean, detailed, but no body/emotion. This was the bigg... | |
| Incredible CD sound for $1500?? The Sony XA777ES is a long way away from being a 'statement' CD red book player. The SACD is obviously quite good, but the unit is easily beaten by many other players in CD playback. Try to find and listen to a used Cary 303/200 player. I bought o... |
