| Speaker Suggestions for Next Move If you really want musical go with the best Sonus Fabers you can afford, used or new. Personally I would recommend Serafinos if you can find a used pair in your price range. | |
| Aliexpress Marketplace practices, be for warned. It's easy to get a free return and refund for most Aliexpress purchases. | |
| Best streamer, don't want Roon, don't want a screen, A DAC is OK but not necessary In your price range an Antipodes CX used takes some beating. | |
| Need Amp or next component upgrade advice I bought a Fosi V3 ( not the monos ) out of curiosity. I don't know whether it was working properly or not but it would not drive my Sonus Faber Sonetto V speakers. However the return was easy so it would cost you nothing to try it. | |
| Several used sonos faber il cremonese for sale. why? For me the Serafinos are a nice compromise between price and SQ and I'm saving furiously in the hope of finding a good used pair. FYI I currently have Sonata Vs and really like them - but you all know what this hobby is like. | |
| So, I bought a Chord Hugo TT2...now what? I've owned most of the streamers mentioned here except Innous but my current streamer is an Antipodes CX which is the best I have tried so far. The CX is towards the bottom of the Antipodes range so I can only imagine how good their more expensive... | |

| SACD/CD Drive Mechanism Replacement If you don't have a large collection of SACD/CDs forget it and go with streaming. Qobuz hi res albums are usually as good as SACDs or at least very close. | |
| You're not a true audiophile unless... Believing every teak on the market makes a huge difference to SQ. | |
| Finding a Bookshelf for Luxman C900U/M900U The Confidence C1 speakers are vastly different in sound to the other 2 speakers you might be interested in. So what type of sound are you really looking for? | |
| Have you noticed as your system improves? @gdaddy1 +1 | |
| Class D Option For Bass I went the biamping route using a Rogue ST100 tube amp for the mids/highs and a Nord dual mono Purifi Class D for the bass. Very happy with the result especially the Nord with 250wpc. It might be out of your price range but you might find a used o... | |
| Is Prima Luna evo 300 a good preamp for parasound a21+? The Don Sachs looks a bit of a bargain. If I was in the market for a new pre I would grab it. |
