Dac to remove Digital Glare/ edge Possilbly a tube buffer between DAC and amp? MHDT DACs have tube buffers in output stage. | |
step inside Klipsch fans and fanatics I have heard several Klipsch speakers over the years and I always thought them to be a little too bright, even harsh for my tastes. I recently purchased a pair of Klipsch RP-160M speakers. These are6 1/2 inch 2-way monitors.The 160Ms are current p... | |
Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? I am also using the AQ type 4 speaker cables with mine. Also AQ 0.5m Diamondback interconnects in place of jumpers. Soundstage and imaging as well as detail is improved. | |
Help me decide on new amp please Sorry sjtm, I am embarrassed. Somehow got myself confused. Getting to the age I need to read twice, look both ways 3x, move more slowly. Thanks for calling me out gently. | |
Help me decide on new amp please My subjective thought is that I would be inclined to lean toward the Marantz. This based on your budget concerns, you like the Marantz sound with your speakers, it has a phonostage, and the Hegel is almost twice the upgrade cost. That said, if at ... | |

Up grading a MHDT Paradisea+ DAC Just realized that I misspelled the new MHDT DAC, it is the Canary. I do need an editor. | |

Up grading a MHDT Paradisea+ DAC Thanks czarivey for the peer review and pointing out my obvious mistake. Title editing is very important. Here is hoping others will see through the gap and provide thoughtful advice, as had mapman. ;-) Mapman, thanks for your response. I have pu... | |
Output threshold using a Dynaco ST-70 amplifier with passive pre. Thank you Ralph. That was the answer I was looking for with this question. As we discussed when you refurbished this unit last April, I intend to keep it as original. Enjoyed your interview in TAS. | |
Shopping for an integrated, advice s'il vous plait. I also agree with ami. The OP is looking for an integrated that will prove reliable for 10 years. Many good suggestions here. What speakers do you have? | |
Recommend a Cable/Interconnect Set Regarding budget determination for cables, I allocate 10% to 15% of the price I paid for the components to be interconnected to the cables to do so. Then buy used off AG or Ebay.I purchased Audioquest Columbia interconnect cables and Kimber 12TC s... | |
Tube amp Questions If wanting an integrated look into the Vincent audio 237. Retails at ~$2500. 150wpc 8 ohms, 300 4 ohms. Might check out audio advisor for this unit. |
