| Warm Class D for horns? I have a pair of Jeff Rowland 535 class D amps, bridged to mono, driving a pair of Totem Forest Signatures. Voicing is virtually identical to the 25 year old, class A/B Rowland Model 2 that they replaced. I would call them neutral, neither warm no... | |

| New Qobuz User Comments @recluse, my DSL download speed max is 6 megabits, and in practice is usually around 5.5 - sometimes less. So far, after about a month, I have not had any trouble streaming hi res files from Qobuz. I do occasionally have a problem streaming movies... | |
| My expert tips on building a sensible world class audio system. Serious indeed! Remember those sleeper speakers from Radio Shack, you know, the 8 inch high two ways? Real sleepers. Well, when RS took a nose dive I bought out their entire inventory of said speakers! I don't have room in my house, so I built my ... | |
| Orchid vs TUBADOUR III - Help me choose +1 for the Orchid. Just as described: detailed but musical and natural sounding, excellent stage width, depth, and localization. No weaknesses that I have found. | |

I am driving the Rowland (75w/channel) into clipping when playing loud, hence the search for a new amp. Just occurred to me, though, that I s... | |
| Wyred SX-1000 Mono’s or PS Audio S700 Mono’s? @unsound I have Strada 2's. I might get something else at some point, but for now the Strada's are doing it. | |
| Difference Between DAC Types I have an Orchid. It’s without question the most musical dac I have heard, without sacrifice. It’s music again! | |

| New Gallo Strata's sound like tin-cans: break-in time problem? I have the Reference 3.1's driven by a Rowland M2 (75w/channel) in a 25 x 25 x 8 foot room and they can play much louder than I ever want to listen to. The Strada has a newer version of the mid and HF drivers used in the Ref. I do remember a consi... | |
