| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? But it was Ralph who said "excluding the Bakoon".I believe the Bakoons are superb and that the HP-1 is the lessor of the models. I need balanced for preamp/phono and TT rig. And really need the 100 wpc of the top model.My general feeling though is... | |
| In general, how does price relate to quality? Think it really boils down to if it is worth the money.IME, a much more pricey piece is usually well worth it. | |
| Does listening to music increase your IQ? I believe that your IQ is your IQ. If one could measure level of enjoyment, then music enriches. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? Ralph, So, it seems you have heard Bakoon. How would you describe them? Current drive?Speaking of tintinabulation, I get that fully with AGD. Not quite as much with Bakoon. | |
| Audio deals you bought that seem impossible for the price? Silversmith Fidelium speakers @ $1200 for an 8’ pair is a screaming deal. They blew away my $6K cables and probably better very pricey cables. | |
| What do "audiophiles" use to judge equipment? Forum posts, reviews and buying with a trial period. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? I definitely feel fortunate. I listen to AGD Audions in my main rig and a Bakoon HP-1 in my headphone rig (with superb ZMF Verites).The Bakoon is excellent. Similar to the AGDs in that “open window” perspective. It is not easy to compare headphone... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines I guess I am “old school”. Use the legendary Keith Monks Discovery RCM. BBC, Library of Congress, etc. used to be a thread on nozzle at the end of a tone arm like moving arm. Now just a high suction devise using a very strong German medical grade ... | |

| Quantum Science Audio Thread Have ordered some 1260. Think I will apply it one connection at a time starting with my yellow fuses coming.Anyone have experience applying it to a system?? | |
| Phono preamp tube rolling. IME, Mullard preamp tubes are best. They are hard to find but worth it. I got 12 12AT7s from a collector. Upscale may have some.But they are rare. | |
| Finally, a great stylus cleaner-Onzow Zerodust! Seeing the stuff that has been cleaned on the Onzow reminds me of the gratification of watching my Keith Monks RCM vacuum up dirt from the record.The Onzow was recommended by the Lyra distributor. | |

| Quantum Science Audio Thread I discussed the fuse issue with a friend who is a manufacturer and audiophile and super knowledgeable.He simply says that you hear a difference with the QSA fuses because they increase the voltage flow. Seems logical that a stock fuse creates a ki... | |
