| Will budget Schiit Modi3 help? Mesch, I would most definitely try the BD player using digital output to dac and compare to analogue out of player for bothe cds and bds. | |
| Will budget Schiit Modi3 help? The Modi 3 multibit is discontinued and no longer on their website. You have to step up to the Bifrost multibit at $599 to get multibit from Schiit. | |
| Will budget Schiit Modi3 help? Thanks Mesch. Yes it would be for cd playback and BD movies. Being it has optical input no reason not to use it with tv too. | |
| Will budget Schiit Modi3 help? Thanks for your feedback Ischarpf and tomcar,Is the Modi3 difference to the analogue outs of your 20 yr old HK only slightly better. If so, it may not be worth the upgrade to a modern bluray player.I can't spend the extra money for the multi-bit v... | |
| Looking for an integrated tube amp under $2500 I have this integrate designed by PrimaLuna, their sister company from the Netherlands and find it has excellent dynamics, tight bass and extended highs.

| Ortofon 2M Bronze There are differences and Ortofon chose a different motor so they have their reasons. May be silver wire vs. copper, who knows? But it was important enough that I'd go with Ortofon's recommendation. | |

| Whats your take on a NAD 3020, I truly believe it defined stereo and still does! I have the NAD 7225PE receiver. They were able to squeeze out 25 wpc from the basic 3020 amp section. I has a very pleasant warm and peppy sound matched with Klipach KSB 3.1 bookshelf speakers. Great for listening to FM evening jazz and classical ... | |
| Little Bear T7 If you like your T7, you could sell your 640p and purchase the highly rated Schiit Mani phono pre and have a big step up and keep your t7 for fun.Great review of it here on youtube, once you get beyond his accent.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta... | |
| CD players and integrated amos What tube cd/amp combo are you using?What ss cd/amp combo?Have you tried Freediver's suggestion on ss cd w/ tube amp? That seems to most promising in my mind as well. | |
| Little Bear T7 How does it stand up against the 640p? How's it different? | |
| Little Bear T7 What have you compared it to?I don't know about the T7, but the USA made Schiit Mani for $129 is pretty amazing. I contemplated a tube phono, but didn't want to turn on a tube phono pre and let it warm up each time I listen to an LP. |
