| Quad Tube Rolling Ok, i learned quite a bit from everyones feedback thus far. The consensus seems to be; i have already gained any audible improvement by rolling the right or "gain side" of tubes. No point in going any further with different tubes on the cathode si... | |
| Quad Tube Rolling Sorry for the confusion. I did roll the output from 6SN7GTB (Russian) to Sylvania 5692 and noticed an improvement. Question is, would rolling the input side create an improvement as well. | |
| A moderate priced dac MHDT Lab-Orchid. $1,100 and you can tube roll the output tube. One can also change out the stock TDA 1541-A stock chip for a Philips TDA1541-S single crown (which i did). The damn double crown went up in price before i decided i wanted to upgrade ... | |
| What are some of the most underrated and overrated loudspeakers you’ve auditioned? My take away so far is: "I am happy i don't own B&W speakers." Early on when choosing a desktop system I did a comparison (A-B switch) between B&W & Martin Logan (15's) bookshelf speakers. The B&W sounded pretty damn good and I kep... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon I would add being honest and open minded is a precursor to establishing this two way venue. | |

I just had to chime in and say how nice it is to see someone is on the job and protecting the consumer within this forum... And i mean that sincerely, i take my consumerism seriously and a reviewer masquerading as a "revi... | |
| I need help trying to decide which bookshelf speakers to purchase One word, Buchart S400's (Mads Burchart- of Denmark) | |
| Schiit Freya plus. Is this an upgrade? I was just informed by Grover of Schiit Audio that Schiit has moved to using 7-10 thicker circuit boards "on some of their newer products." What this could mean for the Freya+ is less flex during tube rolling or changing.. | |
| Schiit Freya plus. Is this an upgrade? An update on Freya models. I went on Schiit's website on 5/25 and purchased the Freya. Next thing i know its 5/29 and i see the above thread about a Freya upgrade. I went on the website and lo and behold, the Freya S-solid state & Freya + are ... | |
| Pangea power cords For what it is worth as a contribution to this thread i just purchased a Pangea 14SE MKII for my Schiit Freya once it arrives... | |
| Speaker recommendations for MC275 If i am allowed to mention a competitor, there are a pair of mint Proac Response 2S’s on ebay as we speak.. | |
| Computer to DAC Streamer Oh my goodness, audiotroy has no shame.. I can only say i know very little about these things. However, i can easily say the Auralic G2 (or G1 for that matter ) out performs the Innuos MKIII by more leaps then Audiotroy's bounds.. And the G2 (or ... | |
| Orchid vs TUBADOUR III - Help me choose I just switched from a Prism Sound Callia DAC to the Orchid. However, the reason i switched was the ability to change out the stock chip (Philips TDA1451A R1) to the NOS Philips TDA 1541 S single crown. Before changing the chip to the S single cro... |
