| T+A DAC 200 or WEISS 501 @dougthebiker thanks for that info, I’ve got about 100 hours signal time on both so far. Did you find the DS 2 lost detail as it burned in? My experience with DACs and most electronics is they open up and get smoother, but apparent detail improv... | |
| T+A DAC 200 or WEISS 501 I have the T+A DAC 200 in my system now on a trial basis. I am also trying the PS Audio DirectStream Mk2. I own the Bricasti M3, been using it for more than a year. In my system the T+A and M3 are similar, with a slight edge to the T+A in terms of... | |
| Denafrips Terminator Plus vs T+A DAC 200 @bhvf Thanks. Good luck with it. Let me know what you think. | |
| AGD Tempo in the house I know this is an old thread, but I just ran across it. I have a pair of Tempo that I bi-amp my Fyne F1.8s with. That with a Backert Rythm pre, and it is heavenly! | |
| Denafrips Terminator Plus vs T+A DAC 200 @bhvf Did you ever do the comparison of the 200 to the Bricasti? I currently have the M3 and I am thinking about the PS Audio DS Mk2 or the 200. I am not unhappy with the Bricasti and should probably have my head examined, but here we are. Any... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @acmaier3 Jeez, feeling a tad sensitive are we? This will be my last post on this thread, so go ahead and say what you want about me, I won't reply. But yes, my Mk1 did have a bridge. Noisy, untested? If you say so. Fanboy? Hardly... I currently... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @acmaier3 You are proving my point. This is a NEW product. But perhaps their nomenclature is a bit misleading (Mk2). As a previous owner of the Mk1 is odd that I did not make those assumptions? It was very clear to me. | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC @acmaier3 I am expecting delivery of my DS Mk2 next week. I ordered it some time ago and have been waiting for them to be available. It has been clear to me from the beginning that unlike the Mk1 there is no capability to stream directly and tha... | |
| Subwoofer I have a KEF KF92 subwoofer in a room similar to yours. I also got their remote transmitter for it so I can locate it where it sounds best, which for me ended up being in the middle of the room, behind the sofa. This has different curve settings f... | |
| Interconnects for Pass Labs X260.8 Change the Bricasti setting to Linear. | |
| Streamer upgrade - best path forward Lumin U2 Mini. ~$2k, amazing resolution, transparency, image depth, and natural timbre. And excellent software. Dual USB ports, plus the usual others. | |
| Amp question with size constraints Let me also recommend AGD amps. I too have Fyne speakers (F-1-8) and a pair of Tempo amps. I bi-amp the Fynes. A single Tempo has plenty of power to drive the Fynes, but the advantage of two amps is the advantage of mono-blocks... better imaging... | |
| Left Channel Blues I had a similar problem not long ago. No matter what I switched around the left channel was weak. I thought something in the crossover had gone south. I eventually used my phone to measure the speaker outputs, and BAM, they were exactly the same! ... | |
| Monitor Stands - Made of Stone @pindac Where might one find Phenolic Impregnated Densified Wood products? A quick google search turned upon a lot of research but no sources for the product. | |
| Advice on how to liquidate system If you do get hearing aids find an audiologist who sells Widex aids. They are the most natural sounding aids I could find. Truly wonderful. Other brands costing $6500 and more sound like the worst class D from hell you can imagine. Believe me, I f... |
