| Power Amp Question +1 soix4. Look for a used pre and power amp. If your speakers are 92db sensitive you won't need 200wpc unless you have a truly large room or are a headbanger. | |
| Will a new Dac improve the sound? I think you would have to spend considerably more on a DAC to hear any appreciable difference. However a streamer/DAC would get you into streaming via Qobuz, Tidal etc. | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Lightning DS is not great but functional for music genres except classical. Roon is better but still not great on listing classical albums. Only Idagio comes close but it is solely classical. On balance there are worse apps than Lightning DS and f... | |
| Decisive moments your your audio journey In my early 20's I heard stacked original Quad electrostatics at an audio show. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and I blame that experience for starting me on the often treacherous audiophile path. Later WOW moments were hearing Maggies and... | |
| HiFi Rose RS250 Don't expect the system to sound considerably improved with the Pontus. I tried it with my Exemplar SACD player/ Van Alstine pre and couldn't hear a difference. The Pontus is a good DAC but there are better for around the same price and ultimately... | |

| Chinese Cables that sound good Here we go again! | |
| Denefrips Pontus "burn in" period? I got a loan Pontus from the distributor, which was well and truly burned in and I still couldn't hear any difference from my Exemplar CD player when running through the Pontus or directly to the preamp. | |
| Recommendations on small ESL speakers for tiny room Maggies or ML. Take your pick. The Maggie LRS with a sub or two sound particularly good for the money. | |
| Would appreciate a group consensus on Agon purchased amps If a manufacturer includes power cables they will most likely be standard rubbish. The Bel Cantos deserve better. | |
| Bonham’s Squeaky Drum Pedal And they say it's all about the music - Right! | |
| Suggestions for an integrated upgrade please Anything by Belles, Modwright or De Havilland. |
