| DAC recommendations I have a Musician Aquarius R2R dac and it’s the best digital by FAR I’ve had in my system and it’s also the 1st R2R dac I’ve heard or owned. No idea how it measures but the damn thing makes everything sound awesome! Like it makes early 90s metal s... | |
| Swan Diva 6.2 vs B&W Natilus 804 Never heard the B&W. I lived in Shanghai China for 6 years and I actually bought those Swans. They suck bad. Not sure what they sell for here but some negotiation in a China Hifi shop and you can walk away with them for under a grand and they... | |
| New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones) @nonoise , Came from pretty good gene stock. Grandmother just died at 106. Excuse me for having some drinks on Christmas Eve although I’m only about 5 in. Havin a few more now puss cakes 🎂. | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy @bidkidz, +1 about using cables as tone controls. Cables can make a “different flavor “ difference but will not turn something into something else. Cables ain’t gonna fix your issue. Sounds like you just don’t like the speakers although the... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? “ I consider myself a great audiophile. That alone is a compelling reason to believe my assertions. Just trust me I know what I’m talking about.” hahaha. What’s the definition of a GREAT AUDIOPHILE!? Lol. Kenjorino. It’s pretty compelling I mus... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? @kenjit you said: “Its just WRONG. Dont be afraid to say it. There is no such thing as analytical. A speaker needs to reproduce the input signal. Either its right or wrong. Dont give me this hogwash about it being analytical or accurate or pleas... | |
| 1990 Klipsch Fotes ll I had a Chorus 2 with Crites tweeter and crites crossover. It was really dynamic. Sounded pretty good with HEAVY use of EQ. Definitely an in your face type of sound. | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? Well there ya go. The Master has spoken! | |
| Add a Linear power supply or iFi SPDIF Purifier2? Depends on what you are trying to do. The IFI spdif thingy makes a pretty big difference if you have a sh…y feed. For tv optical out makes a BIG difference. It was a difference with the Node 2 to the same dac but not that much. | |
| Convincing your local dealer to let you try speakers at home Most dealers will offer a discount on new equipment. Not all but most. I would work out the final sales cost beforehand. | |
| Not sure what to think or do... Once confirmed everything is hooked up correctly. I would turn it on a medium to highish volume and let it rip for 24 straight hours. At the end of that it’s pretty much is what it is. Not saying there will not be small changes over time but nothi... | |
| Focal Kanta 2 or KEF Reference Meta 1 plus KC62 sub? Is the Meta Ref 1 out and in the wild? You would obviously need to hear for yourself. After hearing and owning both brands some years ago upper speakers I would go Focal. | |
| DAC better than Denafrips Pontus II Is that a serious post? yep they measure perfectly but sound like shot. not really cause I had the RME and it was really good. Not NEAR as good as my current. Measurements cannot tell you everything playing test tones! | |
| Fritz Carrera or other possibilities! CSS Criton 1tdx. Check them out. They are like 2200 delivered or kit for less. Got a pair on a trade and and am super surprised. For one they have top notch components and are voiced really well IMO. I had low expectations cause I never heard of ... | |
| Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there? Kenji is back ! Don’t you know he will never go back. The Kenjo is back. don’t you know that he always smokes crack. anybody know what song I’m parodying? |
