| Rives Parc - does anyone have the BARE software Hey easyaudio, Did you ever find the BARE software? I can pick up a PARC pretty reasonably but I’m concerned about using it without the software. how hard is it to use with only the CD? Any thoughts are appreciated before I make the purchase.... | |
| aavik vs Devialet I recently purchased an Aavik U-300 to achieve an all Borrensen designed system (Raidho D1.1 speakers, Ansuz cabling, Ansuz Darkz resonance control and Ansuz mainz8 Diamond power conditioning). I previously used 2 Devialet Expert 200’s in a mono c... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Hey Guys, Thanks so much for all the great advice and suggestions. I have a wonderful foundation for my search. I will take the next few weeks to try and acquire many of the recommended streamers (and look into Roon) to make a decision. ... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) ghdprentice …. Good question. Perhaps I haven’t heard a really good streamer? The Lumin T-1 that I listened to for a while just couldn’t match the sound (to my ears) of the Esoteric & clock on red book CD. I used the Lumin via Tidal (non MQA)... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Andy, Truly appreciate the comments. I looked up the Theoretica (hadn’t heard of it) really sounds interesting. Obviously, a significant investment …. was it a real game changer? I have been looking for a dCS Bridge for a little while, withou... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) One other note ….. A friend mentioned that he was very impressed with an Innous Zen Mk 3. Any thoughts/experiences with Innuos? | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Hey guys, As always, thanks for all the input! I guess providing a little more insight into my system and how I will use the “streamer” would help. First of all, I have simplified my main system over the past year. Got rid of a good analog ... | |

| insurance and shipping with UPS Wow ... kqvkq9 actually takes the time to make a very informed, lengthy and relevant post and spin4cards calls him names and hurls uncalled for insults.1. I hope the moderator does take out the trash (spin4cards)2. If the moderator doesn’t take do... | |
| Pathos and Dynaudio I agree with Czarivey. I have owned the Pathos and it doesn't have the power or authority to drive the C4's properly (unless it is a very small room and you like to listen at low levels) | |
| Looking to hear from Thor owners Mcpherson.....just thought I would give an update on another potential speaker match. I was able to buy a pair of the TPA-30's (locally for great price)....had a pair of them before, but sold to get more power. Now I'm back because I couldn't get ... | |
| Looking to hear from Thor owners Hi Jayson,With the TPA-30's I used SAP Audio Quartettes. They are not very well known, only a few retailers, but they are made in Italy and are beautifully crafted speakers. They were made for lower powered amps (espcially tubes) and were a wonder... | |
| Tube Preamp/solid pwr amp or solid pre/ tube pwr My personal preference, after years of enjoying a large selection of tube and ss components, is a tube pre and a solid state amp. I tend to spend the most money on my preamp and have found that top end tube pre's have been extraordinarily quiet wh... | |
| Looking to hear from Thor owners Hi Guys,Just saw the recent thread and thought I would throw in my two cents (about ugrading to higher power amps). I have a TA-1000 Mk 2 preamp, TA-3000 Mk 2 phono amp and used to have the TPA-30's. Of course, they all sounded great together, but... | |
| Thor TA-1000 MK 2 pre and Aleph amps Os, 2, 5 Hi Bob,I used to live in Naperville but moved to Tinley Park a few years ago (but still in the greater Chicagoland area). I really like the Thor linestage, probably the one component that has not changed in the last 6 years or so, but if I do deci... |
