| Speakers suggestion help For clear vocal midrange you really should listen to Maggies or Martin Logans or other electrostatics before settling on Focals. | |
| Tubed Preamp recommendations? Van Alstine, Modwright, Belles or DeHavilland. Maybe need to go 2nd hand to keep within your price range. | |
| review my list please List is fine but the weak link is definitely the Sonus. The Bluesound node 2i would be an improvement but it is still entry level and a better streamer/dac would be well worth the extra expense. There have been plenty of posts to look at re stream... | |
| MHDT Orchid or Audio Mirror/ pick one for me please I tried the Orchid and Pagoda and a few other well reviewed DACs but found that none of the R2R DACs really had any effect on my near all tube system, which includes an Exemplar 3890 Denon CD player. I didn't try the Audio Mirror, as it wasn't pos... | |
| Can anyone recommend a good streamer/DAC? I had the CXN and while the SQ was very good the controlling software via the app was useless, particularly if you listen to classical music. | |
| Is imaging reality? Like most of the contributors I love to hear the individual instruments or groups of instruments across the soundstage on a well recorded CD. However a well recorded CD will produce sounds from the orchestra that you do not generally hear in the c... | |
| Good entry level cables Morrow is as good as any. | |
| Most organic / real / analogue sounding DAC (ideally with Volume Control) for $1500?????? Pure Audio Lotus 5. In my all tube system it beat the hell out of the MDHT Orchid and Pagoda as well as the Denafrips Pontus and it does have a volume control on the remote. I don't know how well it will go with a SS system though. | |

| to my ears digital audio does not sound natural? something is wrong! Is this the dumbest post ever? | |
| is this the greatest live band of all time? Depends on your definition of a band. In different genres I would go with the Stones, Woody Hermann's many Herds and the Berlin Phil. | |
| Newb Tube question Given your system I would go with RCA or Mullard NOS. Telefunken and Siemens are said by many to be better but possibly out of your price range. I don't know your phono stage but if it has 2 or more tubes be sure to get matched pairs. | |
| Mid Range Streamer DAC recommendation help requested! How many times has this question been asked and answered? What seems to be ignored is the importance of the functionality of the app that goes with the streamer. If you mainly add classical music to your Tidal etc library I have not found one ade... | |
| Don't like vinyl I used to wash the record and then leave it to dry in a dish rack. None of the commercial sprays worked as well and I couldn't afford one of the highly regarded and expensive cleaning machines. | |
| Don't like vinyl I don't like vinyl because the clicks and plops almost give me a nervous breakdown. Cleaning helps temporarily but who wants to spend 30mins washing and drying a disc every time you want to play it. |
