RME ADI-2 DAC Anyone understand this DAC’s Loudness/ EQ function?
Yeah the EQ would be fine but the loudness function that goes up and scales as volume increases would not. I think. Had one for a while. Tried dac straight into amp. Liked it at first and sounded really good on simple music. When music got more co...

That’s ridiculous.

Yup youtube videos mean very very little. If that.  
This Sounds Like A Pretty Good Deal -- Opinions?
Good for you! If you decide to keep your current preamp you could probably sell the Mac for what you've got in the whole deal.   
Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh
@cymivka, The DAC is the Musician Aquarius. There's some reviews out there but not a whole lot. If you watch the youtube review by Tharbamer my dac is the actual one in his video as I made some trades with him.

 Absolute steal for that piece if even in descent condition. Zero risk there. Looking at Hifi Shark nice examples of this amp are asking 3X or more what you can get this one for. Same thing with the preamp.   
Speakers with deep/powerful bass
@mastering92 ,   +1    older Vegas are rock/metal monster machines! Even though they are labeled as efficient I’ve found they really come alive with some real power.   
How much should I spend on a new DAC
I have the Musician Pegasus and its by far and away the best Dac I've owned. I think its around 3k (got it in a trade).   I'm sure there are lotsa good ones but I've always played in the 1-1.5k area and this ones a lot better.   
Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh
Also Ive never heard the Modwright modded Oppo but I had given up on digital until my latest R2R dac. Makes everything sound “right” even sh…y recording to a point of course. Waay more meat on the bones is how I would describe but still very detai... 
Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh
What kind of music do you listen to? If its anything with any amount of mid and low bass I think the Harbeth may be giving up on you at 80 db and 8ft away. I've never had a satisfying experience with loud music and small 2 way monitors without sub... 
But is it HiFi? (Crown)
What’s the preamp? I’ve found they are kinda sterile but with a tube preamp or something with meat on the bones they sound pretty good.   
New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
That S..ts funny to me someone would take stock on speaker sound quality from a recording of a speaker played through different speakers.    “hey Bob did you hear doze new Wilson Maxx 54s on the YouTuber! Man that s..t was amazin! Gonna get me a ... 
USB reclocker vs DDC?
It’s funny to me with the measurement nazis that think it’s the be all end all. I truly believe that some things can’t be or cannot be yet measurable yet . DAC I have now just sounds like Anything you put in is gold. Don’t know why, don’t care. Co... 
Best bang for buck integrated amp for $500
Year and a half later. Did the OP find his $500 diamond?   
Wilson to Tekton to ????
Reading through this the Tekton negativity is amusing. I’m pretty sure “most” of the people that poo poo them have not heard them.
