| Audiogon Is Still Relevent...Don't Listen to the Naysayers. Great site! Learned much about audio, became acquainted with equipment I would otherwise miss, and have made friends via PMs.I am retired and enjoy visiting here most every morning. | |
| Speaker cable length Looking forward for your thoughts and pictures. | |
| Speaker cable length @simao I believe you are approaching this the right way. You purchased a quality speaker cable (inexpensive as well) and have positioned yourself to try both system arrangements. I predict you will like the soundstage benefit the rack by your side... | |
| Looking for a tube Preamp new or used for under $2000... Check out Aric Audio. Make a tube pre called the Unlimited. Great company (guy) to work with. | |
| Killer used integrated for I agree that the Marantz is a good deal at that price. | |
| Too much gain in preamp Well, Yogi was suggesting the use of the SYS as an attenuator between your pre and amp. George was suggesting the use of the SYS in place of your pre. What is the sensitivity of your Edge? | |
| Help me build my system - amp for b and w 705 s2. How about a Vincent Audio hybrid integrated. Sold by Audio Advisor. | |
| This website has become S-L-O-W I also have had this problem. Been blaming it on my 10 year old Macbook pro. And my internet connection. My chrome browser can't be updated on this computer. Probably part of the problem. Maybe also need to dump cookies.Honestly, what the heck do... | |
| Some DACs I am Considering-Any thoughts? Well, I own the AM Tubadour III. I did not get the SE model however did get the capacitor/ resistor and USB power supply upgrades. Cost was $1900. The stock version is $1500 and can be upgraded at a later date. Love this DAC. | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions True, I meant start up or reboot, not reload. Yes I can understand the PITA if switching often every day. | |
| Jolida Foz SS-X Tube buffer & soundstage expander? @smrex13 Yes it would cost me $200. I would like the soundstage expansion it provides on some recordings. We are doing well here. Maybe make it to Oregon once Covid is dispensed with. Take Care.Mike | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions @mijostyn I use the pure music program. Have used it with several converters and DACs. Each time one changes the device one must go into audio setup and change to the new one. It asked you to then reload the program. A very quick operation. | |
| Jolida Foz SS-X Tube buffer & soundstage expander? @smrex13 Thanks for the feedback. I have a friend that owns one and would sell it to me. Been somewhat hesitant as I have a tube DAC and tube pre feeding a SS amp which are working very well for me. I may give it a try.Hope things are going well ... | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions If your source has more than one output you might consider a second converter for the other direction. Could likely find one used and save so money. | |
| Anyone Have M2Tech Gear? Looking for opinions I have the M2Tech HiFace USB/SPDIF converter and have enjoyed it with my MacBook pro. No need for a USB cable. The Evo is an upgrade, though can't say how it would compare to your Alpha which is supposed to be very good. |
