| Standmount speaker suggestion Maybe we need to learn Tai first. To me, Atalante3 > Evoke20 > Totem Sig. One. | |
| speaker list / web site Congratulation. Well done. Falcon M50 can not be just $1,600, though. | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... Some reviewers seem to like it. @alvin1118 Will one be paying extra tariffs now? Do we need to be concerned for customs clearance ourselves? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaGJ9s9nork&t=686s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8yTCFLjOso | |
| Standmount speaker suggestion Used D&D 8c, around $8-9k. It comes with fully customizable DSP for specific room / listening space. Close to wall design. | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... @mattw73 It might not have the most punchy slam but the bass is accurate. It’s tight, detailed, & nuanced. It’s kind of weird, it doesn’t sound like it’s super deep or expressive but I can hear/feel it in the walls behind the couch..different... | |
| Most recent concert Hilary Hahn performed the Brahms Violin Concerto with Washington, D.C.'s National Symphony Orchestra. | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... @mattw73 According to Wave Theory, the new Denafrips 15th leans toward the bright side of neutral, in contrast to the warmer sound signature of the original Pontus or Pontus II. The treble resolution is enhanced, but it lacks the rich mids and po... | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... Wow, no apparent issue from 10k to 12k! Maybe I, along with many others, have been overly concerned. But here’s my experience: I used a preamp with a 5k output impedance into an amp with a 20k input impedance, and the sound felt restrained. Howeve... | |

| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... @mattw73 Thank you for sharing. If your preamp has an output impedance of 50k ohms, it should not have any matching issues with the Denafrips DAC, whether using RCA (625 ohms) or XLR (1250 ohms). I was referring to my own preamp, which has only a ... | |
| Just about to pull the trigger on Pontus 15th ... @ozzy62 @mattw73 @klipscher @curiousjim @jastralfu @2psyop Does the high output impedance of 1,250 ohms from the Denafrips DAC ever bother you in terms of impedance matching? The Harmony DAC has an identical measurement, but the µDAC brings it do... | |

| 12v linear power supply Only Teddy Pardo and SBooster list the most important specification: ripple noise/voltage. Teddy Pardo regulates it down to an impressive 1 µV. However, the SBooster ECO has a relatively high ripple of <1 mV at full load. It is recommended to p... | |
| Class A, A/B vs Class D amp Soundstage Op, it is possible that the damping factor on the new Hypex Ncore-based class D amp is too high, resulting in extremely tight bass control and an overall strong speaker grip. The Evo 150 does not report either its output impedance or damping fact... | |
| Vinyl sounds better (shots fired) So let me get this right: audiophiles who like vinyl but have an IQ below 130 are idiots? And and and ... audiophiles who like vinyl but have an IQ higher than 70 are gifted! |
