| How to tame a bright system? Your setup probably suffering from digititis. You want to fix it with cables. Good luck with that. IMO the answer is a balanced power transformer. Does wonders to tame jitter. Of course no one will give my opinion any credence. Had to say it anywa... | |
| Best Phono You've Heard Under $2200 +1 Sutherland 20/20 (Sutherland told me the20/20 was the sweet spot on their price / performance curve.) | |
| Yet Another Post About Power Conditioners! EquiTech. Your research ain’t complete unless you have looked into balanced power. https://equitech.com/ AudioQuest Niagra 7000 is also balanced power. (The other AudioQuest Niagras are not.) | |
| Recommended streamers/servers? Lumin U1 mini streamer with Sbooster PS plus Schiit Yggdrasil DAC sounds phenominal. Is within your budget. (U1 mini with Yggy sounds better than T2) | |
| Biggest "bang for the buck" audio gear you have owned(in your history)? Equitech 2RQMade my whole system sound like it was twice as expensive.That, or iFi Zen Blue bluetooth DAC. $129 streaming front end.$129 source connected to $18,000 worth of other components.Sounded pretty dang fine! Lumin U1 mini was big upgrade ... | |
| Can we talk about Qobuz for a minute https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRjsu9-Vznc Saw this link on previous forum re: MQA is a scam.Bailed on Tidal and went Qobuz. Qobuz sounds more natural on my system. MQA is an advantage only if you have limited bandwidth. | |
| The best $99 system upgrade ever! Similar item but cheaper:https://www.amazon.com/Clearoo-Removal-Endoscope-Wireless-Otoscope/dp/B08JCJ2JD7/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1... | |
| Upscale Audio and Primaluna You still haven't said what gear was disparaged.PrimaLuna is excellent stuff.Doubt you can do better at that price point.You shoulda probably taken their advice.:) | |
| Remarkably better sound possible with just 1 system component change? Would just get the best Audioquest power conditioner you can afford.Will make every component perform better. | |
| Why is there no love for Prima Luna? Sez who? Prima Luna Rocks! Stereophile puts it Class A. I got Dialogue Premium HP Integrated and with the right tubes it is excellent. Drives a variety of speakers I've tried just fine. (Maybe the electrostats not so much.) Right now I have it wit... | |
| What's the best non-DAC streamer? Innuos Zenith MkIII probably a good choice if you need music storage. But Tidal has 60 million tracks that they store for me, so why do I need a storage device? If I added Lumin L1 to the Lumin U1 mini I would have a storage device and still sa... | |
| What's the best non-DAC streamer? Did a fair amount of research recently and decided on the Lumin U1 mini.Late to the game because it seemed complicated. (Server, renderer, network storage Roon Core , Network bridge, reclocker, computer, CD ripper, streamer, WiFi, etc.) With the L... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts EQ wont affect phase. Beauty of JL is the continuous phase adjustment.Barry Ober the support guy at JL has some excellent material on their site explaining foolproof phase set up. (reverse polarity on speaker cables, play test tone at crossover fr... | |
| Buy a $40,000 10 year old amp for $4,000 or new amp for same money? It's not a serious question. | |
| what would you do? I've had a variety of speakers in a small room (11' X 14")Including Revel F208 and Revel F 206.The 208s were too much for anything with significant bass content.Though they were wonderful with everything else.The F 206 were perfect in that room.Cu... |
