| Shiit Loki How use of the Loki about taming the upper frequencies in a room with tile floors and many windows? | |
| DAC recommendations for CDs in 2-channel system Why not upgrade to one of Schiit's multibit DACs the fits your price range. One can always find a replacement for a CD player to be used as a transport when yours 'craps' out. | |
| Hifiman HE560 Raymonda, thanks for the tip. I ordered the $20 leather pads for my 400S cans.. | |
| Headphones to Improve Upon AKG-Q701s Well, I purchased a Schiit Audio Magni headphone amplifier for a starter. Using it on the low gain setting. Very please with the combination with the 400S. Amazing the audio quality that can be achieved at this price point. | |
| Hifiman HE560 Raymonda, I recently bought the 400S which came with the leather ear pads. Really enjoy these phones, however not sure how they differ from the original 400. Almost went for the 560, however purchased the 400S for such a good deal (used) thought i... | |
| Recievers, Pre amps and amps. As yogi said, if you don't need a tuner purchase an integrated amp (preamp + amp in single chassis) that includes internal phonostage. I would purchase a more recent model used over a vintage one however. | |
| Need some Amp help - a little new to properly powering speakers Moskaudio, am I to understand that you are now considering replacing both the speakers and the amp and going to a 2 channel system? If so I would suggest that you search out the desired speaker first, pair them to your Rotel stereo amp, which seem... | |
| Need some Amp help - a little new to properly powering speakers Don't worry about the 300 watt rating on the speakers. That is a max level and no indication of what is needed to drive them in a particular sized room. If you can attain the volume levels desired and are happy with your amp/speaker combo then enjoy. | |
| Newbie with some turntable, cable, pre-amp, and speaker questions. There are some older audio video receivers that have phonostages. Does yours? There would be a pair or input RCAs labeled phono and a grounding post nearby on the back if so. If not you will need a separate phonostage (phono preamplifier). Phonost... | |
| Newbie with some turntable, cable, pre-amp, and speaker questions. Check out the Audio Technica PL120 TT. Cost about $270. A good most basic budget unit. Has a built in phonostage, however one that could be easily beat with an outboard one. Comes with the AT95E cartridge. Schiit Audio makes a quality budget movin... | |
| Newbie with some turntable, cable, pre-amp, and speaker questions. So basically your are looking for speakers to finish your 7.1 surround system, and wishing to add a TT as an alternate source.Given you are happy with the system as is, continue to look for those speakers that match well with the L,R and center on... | |
| Digital inputs ....is one really better than another? The Audiophileo2 has a AES/EBU output that attaches directly to the BDA-1 AES/EBU input. Also comes with adapter that allows connection to RCA coax. | |
| Digital inputs ....is one really better than another? Rockyboy, If I were considering a DAC upgrade over my BDA-1, I would also be considering the Lampizator line of DACS. I have heard elsewhere that the AES/EBU interface is superior. I but would like to add that I use a Audiophileo2 connected to my ... | |
| Jolida Fusion Preamp I own a stock Jolida with the exception that I replaced the original tubes with new production Mullards. In talking to Jolida, they recommend mods based on the owner knowing the nature of sonic change he/she is seeking I suggest that one own the s... | |
| Jolida Fusion Preamp Guidance please Underwood Hifi has the Fusion/DAC on sale for $599. Look them up online. I have purchased from them and they are good to deal with. Can't help to think that it wouldn't prove superior to a AVR as a preamplifier. |
