Finally heard Accuphase
Piega and Accuphase at THE Show 2025 I can’t bare to listen this system for a moment. At beginning AJ and people’s voices are great. So, mic works fine. Then AJ went into the room and I hear thick veiled and glare sounds which makes me a headache... 
Last night the Music took over….
2 nights ago, I tested a new WT-95 again. More I make WT-95s, my technique gets better (easier) and WT-95 sounds get better each time. Test is done by recording. The sound is more transparent than before and sound-stage was deeper. Usually, I rec... 
Seeking Advice to Improve My Audio System ($1000 Budget)
carlyleciv OP       @gano I have come to learn that this is simply a process of acclamation and trial and error. 1) Everyone here (and world) are listening noisy, veiled, bright sound audio systems, except me. They've heard these sounds all the...

What does your DAC sound like

Audioquest thunder vs tornado HC powercords
milpai My guess is that cables are system dependent.  I've been saying no audio and cable company knows how to make the power cable properly, except me. The synergy (system dependent) between cables and components is because the cable or comp...

Black Beauty - Tomas.  Compare to MBL spkr system,  the system I respect the most. Source (best sound in the world) is the master tape and United Home Audio tape decks. Alex/Wavetouch audio

The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype
deep_333 Who made the drive in your CD player? Pioneer? Marantz? If they made it and you just put it in a chassis, called it "Wavetouch" thereafter......are you really the world’s best or is it them? My system consists speakers (5.25" woofer)...
