| About users with hidden agendas Live example of "agenda" is a thread that is updated on a daily basis of a certain obscure brand of DAC. (I think they try to keep it alive, with the same 3-4 people). The moment someone posts facts about the manufacturer or dealers, 2 posters imm... | |
| Emm Labs DV2 versus Tambaqui @arafiq , Good to know about your experience on the Terminator DAC. But do you think this post is about the 2 DACs mentioned in the title? You know what I mean 😉 | |
| Why People Like Tekton My current stable of speakers includes avant-garde’s, Tune audio, Martin Logan, and Tekton. @bouncehit , You must be having a real nice big room. Would love to see it with on the System page, with all these speakers. Care to post a pic? | |
| Tiny Room (6' x 9') speaker advice Vintage look-wise and space wise, I think the Wharfedale Dentons would be more appropriate over Lintons. Does it have to be close to $3k? | |
| PSVANE 12Au7 12At7 12Ax7 "-T MKII" 2020 production run of small signal/driver tubes @decooney , I did not find the midrange to be more forward nor laid back. But it has more "presence", such that the you can "see" the music better. Vocals feel more real to me. But all this is after letting the only about 30 hours of burn-in. Hon... | |
| PSVANE 12Au7 12At7 12Ax7 "-T MKII" 2020 production run of small signal/driver tubes I recently ordered the new Art Series for my Rhumba preamplifier and compared these tubes with the older series tubes. The very first thing that I noticed is the bass - there is something in this bass that you cannot miss. It is damn tight and tun... | |
| AKM makes the best DACs Did they ever find out how the fire in the AKM plant started? Curious. | |
| About users with hidden agendas I know of a gentleman here that continuously posts and goes after people and does not disclose who he is. Then how is he a "gentleman"? I have seen this here and other forums. Sometimes it is not just the dealer, but regular posters who try to... | |
| Dynaudio Special 40 Yes, I have heard this at a Chicago dealer a few years ago. They sounded splendid with some Simaudio/Moon equipment. So much musical at least in that well treated room. And they were the same color as your speakers. I remember they were playing so... | |
| Eva Cassiday Blew Me Away with her cover of Wayfaring Stranger.... Is Eva Cassidy worth a deeper dive? Absolutely! Besides the other great albums already mentioned, try her "Simply Eva" album - solo guitar - she sounds sublime on this one too. | |
| AKM makes the best DACs After that I have simply said that this discussion is kind of pointless, imho, because, as I have said, there are many good sounding different dacs or players with different types of chips or technology (architecture or call it as you may like) ... | |
| AKM makes the best DACs @melm, TBH, I was very much interested in the DAC you and sns were discussing (go and check my posts on that thread). But when there was a communication issue on the manufacturer side that some one reported, you guys pounced on such posters, acte... | |
| AKM makes the best DACs Don't get upset I didn't say ESS. Oh come on @erik_squires , the DAC he has been pushing has the ESS 😄 | |
| AKM makes the best DACs @djones51Â That's right. I was about to post that link when I saw your message. There is also a discussion on ASR. | |
| AKM makes the best DACs +1 @erik_squires on AKM. But all we see is ESS. The AKM factory is now up and running and lets hope new DACs come with their Velvet DAC chips. But yes, implementation matters. |
