| Preamp recommendation; ≤ $5k @cleanshirt,You should seriously consider the Backert Labs Rhumba. It is balanced design and sounds wonderful. If fits in your budget and it is made in the USA. This is not a recommendation out of thin air - but I own it and love it. There are man... | |
| Power regenerator vs conditioner I don't own the Puritan.But HolmAudio is HIGHLY recommended! I had a great experience there. | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. @patrickdowns,Is this yours @milpai? That is indeed my room. I have been happy with the GIK products and the improvements they provide me. Just be careful that if you make changes to speakers or speaker placements you need to adjust them. I learne... | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. @patrickdowns,I have to agree with you.OP is clueless. But I think he is new on the forums and might be trying to "get attention". | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. Why? Because acoustical treatments presented are in virtually empty rooms. Unrealistic. Not sure if you are making a statement or advising others. But you have also provided the reason why they are not needed, as it depends on a case-2-case bas... | |
| Anyone Recently Change to Class D power? @jaytor ,Thanks for posting the details. Yes, I did check out the amp on your system page. You have a fantastic room. Amazing that the Purifi competes with the JC5. I would think the JC5 is a detail monster, knowing what the A21 can do. For me the... | |

| Spendor D9.2 vs. Harbeth super hl5 plus xd + REL Stentor III vs. Spendor Classic 100? @tomer_tsin , I prefer precise and high resolution speakers that have control low bass-smooth midrange-detailed treble, with internal imagery and attacks, high-pitched sound and instrument simulation. You answered your own question. Without doub... | |
| Spendor D9.2 vs. Harbeth super hl5 plus xd + REL Stentor III vs. Spendor Classic 100? Basically @kren0006, @prof and @twoleftears are saying the same thing. Preferences do matter and that is what it boils down to.I enjoyed the D7 when I auditioned it. The way I put it is - if you like to rock, then D series else the Classic series. | |

| Spotify HiFi I will certainly check the Spotify HiFi quality. If they are comparable to Tidal HiFi, then - if Tidal does not allow me to control my laptop with their "connect" feature, I will move to Spotify hifi.Tidal sounds phenomenal compared to the current... | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... I had put this product on my watch list after @lalitk 's recommendation. Now @grannyring also recommends it. Two long time A'goners can't go wrong. Makes it more exciting.I currently use a laptop to stream my audio file from a NAS and stream from ... | |
| Room acoustics - Spending and sound videos Room treatment is the most critical piece that most folks should have at least a bit of budget when designing a new room. At the same time it is important to experiment and find out "where" to place the treatment. Over treating kills the sound - s... | |
| Disappointment with Pass Labs - I'm looking for something else I do not own a single Pass equipment. But this is the complete opposite of the many experiences that people post here or elsewhere about Pass equipment.And it also doe not help that this is a new poster and this is their first post. Good luck! |
