| The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz Tried the slow response but I preferred the sharper sound. I have a all tube Luxman preamp and Aerial 5 T's so I lost some of that edge on the horns and guitars that I like. Have not tried headphones w/this unit. May borrow some from my dealer. Wh... | |
| PrimaLuna amp good match for Thiel CS 2.3? I had 2.3's and used a pair of modified Threshold T-50's. They put out 100 wpc in pure Class A. 2.3's love high current amps. The late Jim Thiel was not a tube guy. He really liked pairing his speakers w/Bryston amps. | |
| The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz The Belcanto 3.7 DAC seems to use a Steady clock similar to the RME FS clock. Wonder if they are the same. | |
| Accuphase E470 v. Luxman L509x One Luxman integrated that has been overlooked is the all tube LX-380. Luxman makes some great tube gear. It would be an excellent match for the DeVore 0/96's. | |
| The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz I'm trying to digest the Info. I've had it for 4 days. Paid $1099 which seems to be the price on line. I'll check out p.55 Thanks for the info. | |
| The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz My dealer had 3 and he sold out in one week. He has ordered more. He laughed and said, "well there goes the sale of the Chords". My current setup is a Bluesound Node, Bryston 2.5 sst2 amp, Aerial 5T's and a Luxman CL38U-SE. Ihave a small Paradigm ... | |

| DACs with a budget of $800 A little over your budget at $1099. The RME ADI 2-DAC. Made in Germany. The company has been around for 20 years building various components for professional studios. It's also a high end Headphone & IEM unit. Features include a 5 band paramet... | |
| Luxman Integrated? Luxman also makes an excellent all tube Integrated amp. The LX-380. Has the same retro Marantz 7 look. The built in phono is also all tube and very good. I purchased the CL38U-SE all tube preamp about 7 months ago. Best tube preamp I've ever owned. | |
| Dynavector DV20X2H or DV20X2L I found the better the phono the more I got out of the Dynavector 20XL2. I started out w/a P75MKIII which gave me a very nice sound. I then moved to a Shaker Logic phono which has a Cinemag Blue SUT. Quieter background and a wider soundstage. Curr... | |
| Simaudio P5 or Conrad Johnson ET5 I had a CJ ET-3SE which was nice but always seemed restrained. I ended up w/a Luxman CL38U-SE which totally blew away the CJ. It has balance and tone controls plus a mono switch. The phono really surprised me. It has 4 SUT's 2 for MC high and 2 fo... | |
| Affordable Processor with Fabulous 2 Channel ? I still use a Krell Showcase processor. Has a 7.1 analog input for surround and a balanced input for CD's. Built like a tank. Never had a problem. They usually sell in the $600 range. Original price $4000. | |
| LOUNDSPEAKER FOR $10,000.00 PER PAIR Paradigm Persona 3F, Aerial 7T, Magico A3 are in that price range. All are a little different. Just depends on what you subjectively enjoy. Go out and demo as many speakers as you can. Opinions on speakers are like noses everyone has one. | |
| Phono stage can minimize tics and pops on vinyl A couple of things to add about the E-250 is it also has a vg sut. And a cart demagnetizer. I have a Luxman CL-38U-SE and the tube phono is the best phono I ever owned. Very quiet as it has 4 step up transformers 2 for MC High and 2 for MC Low. Th... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Focal Kanta 2 In this price range I would also consider the Aerial 7T. |
