| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @audphile1 uh, look up ^ 😉 | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords Well, I went to the OP’s place yesterday and listened to his system. Thank you Dave for allowing me to do this and also making me an espresso from your own home-roasted beans. Turns out we both have similar hobbies- a love for audio and coffee. Th... | |
| Mad Scientist Audio Speaker Cable I have read some really good things about this company from down under, and they have been making some quality cables for some time, I haven’t yet tried any myself but read plenty of good reviews. Having said that I think Huff says whatever will ... | |
| SPEAKER CABLE OR INTERCONNECT @jasbirnandra Honestly I think @geauxaudio gave you the best answer you could hope to find. As he suggested contact Colin at Gestalt for his opinion on the matter. If you get 20 more responses here and half say IC's and half say speaker cables h... | |
| SPEAKER CABLE OR INTERCONNECT @jc51373 so I returned it..Not before he gave me a hard time, and then tried to charge me a restock fee and charge me for return shipping. Your expectation for in home trials is that the distributor or manufacturer should pay for all shippi... | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @serblinfan But a friend of mine has a system based on vintage Tannoys, he tried hard to upgrade his system with upmarket cables - all in vain, so perhaps it is system dependent.... Hmm, I happen to know a fellow here @lalitk with Tannoys wh... | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords As it turns out the OP and I live nearby, relatively speaking. I am going over to visit his nice hi fi room this weekend with some of my equipment. We will swap around some gear and some cables and see what our ears tell us. Stay tuned. | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @dwcda Ha, it takes no courage to anonymously discuss an experience with strangers. Audphile1 began a little rough but came around and offered some helpful info in the end. I appreciate comments from all, those who agree with me and those who d... | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @dwcda The front edge of the speaker is 4' from the wall. I've tried other positions and this was the best for me. There is a 7" monster bass trap behind each speaker and a 17" square soffit trap in the corner. The soundstage is great. When y... | |
| Mola Mola Tambaqui Roon vs Separate Streamers ^ 👍 | |
| Sound Quality @lalitk You are most welcome. 😊 Glad you are enjoying that unique recording. 🎸🎶 | |
| Sound Quality @navyachts Any good recommendations for a DSD 256 CD to purchase for a test drive, maybe something a little more obscure that the run of the mill "Top 40"? Little Weevil Yes, the above recording is definitely not top 40 😁 One guy, one gui... | |
| Sound Quality @navyachts Native DSD 20% off until May 17 😃 | |
| Sound Quality @navyachts I’ll let @audphile1 answer the question as to whether DSD sounds better on the Bricasti or not, but looking at the specs these are your options: Digital Inputs XLR: AES/EBU 24 bit Single Wire, BNC: SPDIF, RCA: SPDIF, Optica... | |
| Sound Quality there really isn't the need to rip CDs, I guess. That is unless you have something rare that can't be found online. Any other benefits you can muster? @navyachts that is pretty much my philosophy. The onboard hardrive is not just for ripped CD... |
