| Audiogon Anti-Lowball Offer setting I have been using the lowball option for some time and it does save in dealing with a lowball mindset. Now if there was something that AudiogoN could do to stop the late night "drunken" (or impaired) buyers that come up with a lame excuse the ne... | |
| Phonostage recommendations under $3K Interesting read on this, I've been meaning to update my phono with tubes, but couldn't find an Aesthetix Io, but couldn't find the one I wanted (single power supply and no volume). I just picked up the Herron that was being spoke of, so thanks f... | |
| What are the best Bluetooth headphones? I have tried several and have to say hands down the audeze LCDi4 razor in ear with the Bluetooth attachment are the best. Wonderful timber correctness without any fatigue or bloom. Bass is solid when fitted correctly. Compares to my Focal Utopi... | |

| What's Your Advice, Used Audio Research LS15, Or Freya+? I have an ARC LS-15 that was modded by Huntley with the great northern sound company. I pulled it out as I’m updating my aesthetix calisto and am amazed by the sound. I have auditioned schiit audio gear (mani and yaggi) and fine them to be a gre... | |
| Syng research foundation cables It’s true that Ted is a nob and he has sold a lot of music “stuff”. He is very successful and will be quick to let you know it. I have a few of his products, but have found other boutique sellers to give my easily earned money to. Most of his p... | |
| HoloAudio May Dac, New King of dacs? Stereophiles review on it? I just got an Ayon Stealth and am amazed by he improvement. I also have the Oppo/Modwright 105d and am surprised by the improvement. I just run DSD direct and love the Oppo presentation. I have always preferred attenuation through a robust syst... | |
| A DAC that can make digital sound analog? I am using the Oppo/Modwright 105d with the Ayon Stealth and feel it is a great combination on non-DSD files. I have another Oppo 205 for DSD and can hear a big difference. Match made in heaven to these ears | |

| Anyone have experience with the Ayon Stealth dac? I use my stealth as a DAC connected to my pre. I would never want to use the attenuation feature of the stealth, I’m to fussy with proper sound level control. I tried a Linn Kontrol which is SS and was underwhelmed by the neutrality of the sq. ... | |
| Is the preamp the “heart” of the system? coming from a cath lab background, the pre is the Brian’s of your system and the amp the heart or power. Pre makes decisions and the amp will follow. But in the end, who cares what normanclature you use to describe your system, just enjoy and fol... | |
| should I buy this tube amp? Pass | |
| Have you "lied" to yourself? I am pretty honest with myself on purchases, but there have been many a time I was underwhelmed by the expense. I buy second hand and let others decide for themself. I have gone down the tube road, but SS may be another man’s bliss. | |
| Preamp or DAC? I just got an ayon stealth and will just plug it into my Callisto eclipse. A good DAC is great, but world class attenuation is golden. | |
| Removing a ZERO from the price of amps Why are people looking to Class D to “save” money on a power amp. I have tried a dozen in the last twenty years and see value in all types. For those who can afford zero feedback and tube output, there is no comparison. Sorta separates the men ... |
