What sends shivers down your spine when you play it on your system? Neil Young/Crazy Horse “Falling from Above” just did it to me. | |
Radio Paradise - Superb User Supported Radio- so very grateful for it! Reminds me of old time FM radio in its golden days back in the early 70s except with no background noise and CD quality sound. | |
tough choices Who is the dealer? If they can’t provide suitable amps for your speakers on a 100k budget then you need a new dealer. | |
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way @goldprintaudio did you just recently get those in? | |
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Well true I didn’t know it would take this long when I ordered them and I could have gone with the standard color like my current ls50s but hey everyone needs a little spice in their life like a different color every once in a while, and I do have... | |

Class D Technology I have a 40w/ch $85 Fosi Class D integrated amp with Bluetooth in use that sounds really good driving a vintage pair of Boston A40s. Audiophile worthy even, as long as you don’t ask too much of it. Cleaner/Better sounding than most comparable powe... | |
Tube-based DACS: Positive? Negative? Been there, done it. Not a fan. I liked the tube that sounded the most like my similar SS NOS DAC best so I just cut to the chase. | |
Class D Technology That will be interesting. |
