| Tidal or Qobuz I cancelled Tidal after using Qobuz and Tidal for about a year. Slightly better SQ but also the MQA nonsense was a turnoff. I'm going to try out Amazon HD thanks to this thread. | |
| Any other Pipe And Slippers Audiophiles out there? MacAllen 15 yo or Blanton's at the moment for whiskey favs. Socks or bare feet - I hate slippers and all other forms of foot wear unless necessary. Can't talk about a pipe that I may or may not own or what may or may not be in said pipe, if it e... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Lot’s of great advice here, including maybe save half for a rainy day or an impromptu adventure. This is not good advice, IMHO. Assuming 7% taxes we have 15k left for vinyl. This is easy your cartridge will be an Hana Umami Red for 3950… you wo... | |
| power cable Power chords are typically used with amplifiers. | |
| XLR recomendation I had a very good result going from Zavfino's Fusion RCA to Fusion XLR from my phono stage to hybrid integrated. Under $400 delivered. Using the same cable allowed me to really hear the difference between single-ended and balanced, which was huge... | |
| Zafvino Silver Dart Graphene vs. ? Thank you all for the suggestions thus far. | |

| As An Experiment I Stuck A Few Things Under My Pre-Amp And Am Now On A Quest I use IsoAcoustics for speakers and Symposium bases and roller-blocks for everything else. Details in my profile. Sorbathane is no bueno. (I had no footfall issues to solve; goals were isolation and vibration dissipation) | |
| Is it worth it? DAC question *going with... | |
| Is it worth it? DAC question +1 on the LHY LPS (I have an N130 too) and gong with an external DAC. | |
| Anxiety help needed. New instal of Hana ML My ML was the same. Just adjust as others have suggested. Great cart for the money btw. | |
| ADD-POWR POWR BAR +1 for Cullen Gold - really well made and reasonable. Added a Puron AC filter to the Cullen 6 outlet and I've got a non-throttling power conditioner that really works for less than $600. | |
| Speaker Cable Recommendation Zavfino Nova $400, Prima for $700 but minimal gain over the Nova's. All my interconnects are Zavfino as well, details in my profile. Cost/performance ratio tough to beat IMHO. | |
| At what price is one considered an Audiophile. I spent $300 on a B&O A1 for travel, sounds amazing for its size. I have an old Apple HiFi 3 way speaker, it rocks, I will never sell it. Also $300 my first recollection of music was at 5 years old listening to Nat King Cole on my Dad’s ree... |
