| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. Hooray for nonoise!! I'm with you all the way!! | |
| Analog Upgrade - Where to start? I've got a Herron Audio phono stage and line stage preamps, and I love the sound of both of them.... | |
| Best sub for music, To the fellow who said there is nothing below 160hz, if you're serious about that statement, it might surprise you that some people listen to music that you obviously don't. | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? I've also read so much great stuff about the Holo May that I've got one of those on order; I'll have a shootout between that and the DAVE/M Scaler combo... | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? DAVE!!!! | |
| Speaker Cables? why all the hype for expensive speaker wire? I wear hearing aids and I don't much care whether somebody on the internet thinks I should be allowed to be an audiophile or not. | |
| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. Expecting my Eddie Current Studio 8 headphone amp this week; just ordered a Holo May DAC and a Roon Nucleus streamer.... | |
| Beginner looking for guidance into tube sound. I use a Herron Audio tube preamp going into my MSB S-200 SS power amp, and it has a tube sound that I totally love. | |
| Lack of popularity of Chord??? I had a Hugo 2 but didn't care for it that much and replaced it with an RME. Now I've replaced THAT with a DAVE and an M Scaler, and that so totally rocks my world. Now looking forward to my new headphone amp. | |
| What is the most important component to consider while building a new system? Speakers probably #1, but after that, I'd put line-stage preamp and/or phono stage. | |
| Listening to digital and analog I've recently done some serious upgrades to my vinyl/speaker system and my digital/headphone system; awesome sound experiences from both!! | |
| How much difference does a phono preamp really make? I've got a Technics SL-1200G with a Clearaudio Charisma MM cartridge, and it sounds amazing through my Herron Audio tube phono-stage - yes, it can make an immense difference. | |
| Vinyl...should I stay, or should I go? Looks like you've got a really good system with that Chinook and all; I'd expect that vinyl would sound great on there, depending on your other gear. I've got a big vinyl collection but hardly ever played any records for years, just because they s... | |
| Tube vs. Solid State Amplifiers I like my power bulbs just fine, thank you very much; I don't much care for dry, analytical sound, I prefer the pleasing distortion that 'power bulbs' provide. | |
| At This Time Can We Recreate Full Range Live Music In The Home? It's not about replicating 'live music' - it's about getting as close as possible to what the producer and artist wanted the record to sound like; it's all about their subjectivity. "Live music" will sound 10 completely different ways from 10 diff... |
