A brief review of GR Research Bully @moonwatcher - since you can dial sub part, you can add enough bass for YOUR level of listening, compensating for the typical loudness curve loss and room issues. I only wish they would have remote with different presets :-) so I could flip betwee... | |
A brief review of GR Research Bully @quickjack1234 - you suggest that I delete MY thread? Why would I do that? So you would come and pollute it again? You were reported. | |
Schiit Loki Max? I am evaluating it right now. So far I am leaning towards returning it as it does introduce a veil when connected to Accuphase E-650 tape loop. Slight, but it is there. On the other hand, I may keep it for use where recording quality is not great ... | |
Physically Comfortable Headphones Meze Elites are light and excellent | |
A brief review of GR Research Bully Admins need to clean these. Have little to do with my OP. @quickjack1234 - please remove yours. If you want to post your own, please do. But my thread was on a specific subject, so don't hijack the thread. If you wont remove, I'll report it to ad... | |
USB to external DAC, Ibasso DX160 DAP Looking at specs it is unlikely it supports USB-C. Try regular USB-A cable and port. | |
Pass labs krell parasound amps Remember that Pass is MOSFET which is a closest solid state to tubes. It does have nice ’house’ sound which is on a warmer (just a little bit) side. There is also Accuphase which may be regular or Class A MOSFET, like Pass. | |
Is "detailed" audiophile code for too much treble? I define detailed not by amount of treble but rather when attack and decay are correct and not smeared in time. So sound is not muddied by the fact that notes sound longer than they should be and do not start overlaping with other. | |
Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source? @yyzsantabarbara - the problem with Toslink is that a) it is limited to 24/96 and b) there is no error detection or correction like with USB. USB is way more modern, I am running 15 ft USB just fine, it is not worse than a twisted pair. | |
Dedicated CD Transport vs DAC Quality DAC first. Besides, you can use DAC with 24/96 streaming rather than CD transport limited to 16/44 CDs. Sorry, haven't owned CD transport for like 15 years, everything is long ripped into lossless files. | |
The Low Volume Loudness Dilemma Why not get Accuphase voicing EQ? At low, low $18K it probably has better quality than dbx. | |
The Low Volume Loudness Dilemma @limomangus - it may as well fix it if room is not properly treated. May add some other problems, but perhaps OP music sounds good now. With some older material I rather use EQ and lose a bit of transparency than not enjoy it at all. | |
The Low Volume Loudness Dilemma I think for that amount i'd build detached shed and treated it with proper acoustic materials like a recording studio. | |
Six DAC Comparison Every DAC sounds different simply because each has different filter after the actual chip. | |
A brief review of GR Research Bully @ozzy62 This is very subjective, my material may not be very "audiophile" :-). I would say, sound is clean and transparent. GR spends quite a bit of time on time alignment and off-axis response. The latter is actually very good. As compared to Pro... |
