Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative”…..Part 1: I have a plan
@ezstreams  Did you had a chance to visit @gestalt in Nashville. I recommend checking out his room at AXPONA.   
Tannoy platinum F6
2.5 way…that’s not is Tannoy known for. They made their mark with dual concentric drivers with an embedded horn. As far as F6 goes, the design is fairly common. A 2.5-way with two 6.5" mid/bass drivers and a 1" silk dome tweeter. I am not suggest... 
Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative”…..Part 1: I have a plan
Driving to AXPONA….That’s a good plan even though the room conditions aren’t always ideal. Listening to variety of components within your budget will help narrow your choices. Many exhibitors have private sessions after show hours, try to attend t... 
The Streamer-Dac-Preamp Chain
@debrajray  Consider auditioning Aurender A200 or A15 ahead of Moon 761. It doesn’t get any simpler than this!

+2, Hana ML. This cart will further elevate your listening until you’re ready to upgrade your TT.    
Linear Power Supply Recommendations!
@sns JCAT Optimo ATX is a serious piece of gear for a custom server, definitely not your average LPS solution. I used to own Optimo Duo 3, it was paired with Telegartner Gold M12 Ethernet Switch. When I added Telegartner Opti Bridge 1000M in my ... 
Linear Power Supply Recommendations!
Just received LHY (Jay’s Audio) LPS80VA dual output 12V/5A Linear Power Supply. Going to break-in for next 5-6 weeks and then compare with stock wall warts came with my Opti Bridge. If I hear improvements, then I will venture into comparing LHY wi... 
Got Innuous, now a DAC
Another vote for Aqua La Voce with NOS tubes.   
Where to put best interconnects
If you have one very good new set of XLR cables and one older but still good set, the best placement depends on your system’s signal chain.  Between the Source and Preamp: This is often the most critical connection because the signal is at its lo... 
BS meter is pegged!
“and in direct comparison w an insane $ WADAX stack… it held ground” @tomic601  The 3 box design at $80K retail, I would expect few to be impressed and others to simply shake their heads in disbelief.   For a product at this price, the market is... 
What is the science behind audiophile fuses?
@tksteingraber Thanks for posting the picture of SDFB. @carlsbad2 It sounds like you’ve put a lot of thought and effort into addressing a concern from some of us. I am ok with slugs but don’t want a pigtail in the signal path so let’s see if ... 
BS meter is pegged!
I wonder how many here would be willing to pay upto $24K for a streamer/server that falls short on one of most important aspect of end user experience…software implementation. And chokes on WAV file playback.   
WhestTHREE signature phono pre vs. ModWright PH 9.0X
@jc51373 Your ‘beef’ with @gestalt is well known here. My advice would be to focus on subject on hand rather than allowing past disagreements with someone clouding your judgement. As far as my post, I was merely recommending a product that I ha... 
Linear Power Supply Recommendations!
@tee_dee Not quite, PS Audio power plant essentially a AC regenerators that create a clean and stable power supply for your audio equipment. Here is the simplified explanation on how PSA power plant works, 1. AC to DC Conversion • The incoming... 
Check This Out!
@hchilcoat I can totally relate to what you’re saying. Achieving that level of satisfaction, especially with room treatments in place, is a milestone many audiophiles strive for but don’t always reach. As impressive your existing system is, I ca...
