| Member Almarg passed away last night Yes, from his interaction on this forum, he was one individual I truly wished I had the opportunity to know personally. Have learned much more from him than just audio. | |
| $1500 to spend... Well, The gliders removed the drawback of the speakers, you liked the sound with the Brio, and now have a different amplifier to compare and with the option of tube rolling and provision of more power. Let us know the result, thanks. | |
| Looking for a basic streamer without a DAC, preamp, storage and all that I am with those that recommend the Bluesound for ease of use. Your Bitfrost is likely a better DAC. Likely not paying much for the internal DAC. | |
| Connecting a DAC directly to an amp? Yes, go without preamp and see if it works for you. | |

| IsoAcoustics GAIA I also am interested in these footers. I recently purchased Tannoy Sterling speakers and want to try footers to replace those that came with the Sterlings. In no hurry as I am still adjusting to the new speakers. | |

| Ever Hear a Tube CD player? Yes, my Audio mirror Tubadour III tube DAC improved soundstage, resolution, and added 'air' to the presentation. | |
| What is the best audiophile speaker for a tiny square room? I have heard those Tannoy Audograph minis. Sound and look wonderful. Were driven by a 10wpc Luxman tube amplifier. Would make for a truly class system in a small room. |
