| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! These are a close 1 and 2 but my vote goes to Tekton. | |
| Lumin d3 vs hifi rose 130 What is your current streamer and what are you looking to improve? | |
| Audio Desk cleaner.....still available? AudioDesk works really well, but mine died after cleaning approx. 500 records and I too was offered a slight discount on a new one OR sending it back to Germany at great expense with an unknown outcome. But it looks like a garage experiment - the ... | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… I can't speak to the 40.2's but I owned 30.2 XDs and now have 40.3 XDs. I drive them with a T+A PA 3100HV integrated and they sound great. I've had the T+A for about 7 months now and it never gets boring or fatiguing. (I had a BAT VK 3500 before ... | |
| Anyone upgraded from Hana ML to Umami Red? @portoalegre I went with the Aidas Durawood Bee which was a huge upgrade from the Hana ML (still have it but it’s looking for a new home) as I’ve moved on to a new TT and MSL Signature Platinum, along with microscopy analysis and full toolset fro... | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say? What I do not do is start a thread asking what I should do or say about a scenario that is either hypothetical or has already happened. Epic trolling though. | |

| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital Based on the responses so far, the consensus would seem to be that vinyl has no over-whelming, intrinsic advantage these days, despite what many dealers / magazines say. I strongly disagree with the consensus:) | |
| What is your favorite budget streamer? @audioman58 Innuos mini pulse streamer , with LPS power supply option up to 2-3T SS drive internally and very good app. And you’re getting these where for $350 or less? | |
| Power cord @wesheadley I agree with you. Not sure the OP cares though. As others alluded to another cable post to rattle the cages. Works every time, sadly. | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital A few records that I think sound very good. We Get Requests: The Oscar Peterson Trio (Verve V6-8606) Night Train: The Oscar Peterson Trio (Verve V6-8538) Bill Evans Trio: Sunday at the Village Vanguard (UHQR by AP) Midnight Blue: Kenny Burrell... | |
| Hegel H120 or H190 Take this with a grain of salt as I dont know what kind of music you listen to, but a quick search on USAM turned up a pair of Harbeth C7ES and a Hegel h190 for around $4600 (separate ads) which are thought to have good synergy. I based your budg... | |
