Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier @erikt I love the idea of an AN integrated for you. Are you getting the Oto thru an AN dealer? Didn’t recommend cuz thought it would be tough with your budget. Are you getting Oto thru an AN dealer? | |
Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) Gold Note DS1000 Evo perhaps? Tilts a little towards warm I believe. I have the DS10 and prefer it in head to head with DCS Bartok. More full bodied to my ears. Ds10 and DS1000 use same chip, so should be same, only more. | |
Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier I second the Synthesis, Leben and Audio Hungary recommendations. Another nice brand I have experience with is Triode Corp, Japan (not Triode Lab, Canada). If you want to go even more upscale, Octave Audio makes some beautiful gear. I have 3 tub... | |
Best streamer for Audio Note UK dacs btw, if not mistaken, the only purpose for reclocking is to remove jitter. So if you start with a low jitter streamer, not clear to me what the purpose of a separate reclocker would be. | |

Solo streamer @rvpiano nope. just take a look at my first post on this thread, where I said: “Here’s a link to a recent thread where competing perspectives on this issue are discussed:“ recent streamer I didn’t suggest to you that the alternate view to ... | |
Solo streamer @rvpiano not what I said. Here’s a definition: person who believes too strongly that their personal opinions or beliefs are correct. We can discuss further, but perhaps the person who engages in ad hominem attacks at the mere mention of an alt... | |
Solo streamer @soix exactly. and I’ve not once accused you of making yourself “look utterly foolish”, because that’s a personal attack. I certainly disagree with you, but I don’t insult your intelligence or suggest your posts are “pointless.” We simply disagr... | |
Solo streamer @abnerjack see what I mean? ad hominem. @soix @rvpiano my listening obsevations from 20 (not 30, sorry) years experience is that there are no differences. And others on this forum have had the same experience. so again, not fitting into y... | |
Solo streamer @abnerjack lol! Yeah, the dogmatists on this forum have a hard time figuring out what to do with me. They want to put me in a box that just doesn’t fit. I am a tubes and vinyl guy who thinks that measurements can provide insight into what w... |
