New Look for Audiogon hard to work with The new display sucks. Can we have a option to suppress the thumbnails and display old style listing. Also noticed that within a category you cannot do any refine search. The site has become slow. I would suggest every member to send an email to c... | |
Denafrips maybe have a second thought. I had the Ares and it worked perfectly and then I upgraded to the Pontus. For the exchange I had to return it back to HK, but fortunately Alvin found a buyer in US. The Pontus is far more better than Ares in every respect. | |

Speakes for SET amp Thanks for the great replies. I am really getting interested in the Coincident Super Eclipse speakers. My audiophile friend suggested the Audio Note AN-E/spe HE speakers either factory assembled or as kit. Any feedback on these AN spks. Thanks | |
Anything like the Ayre CX-7e but with digital in? The Resolution Audio Opus 21 and Cary 306 are one of the best I have owned and with digital inputs. With the Duet connected its wonderful. | |
