| Mea culpa for Uptone Iso Regen USB I'm a bit curious about the reclockers in general, in addition to that, if you buy an "audiophile" usb cable, where would it go, from the source to the reclocker, or the reclocker to the dac? | |
| Tube integrated @cellcbern Excellent suggestion, I was looking for somewhat boutique exotic stuff, the S6 or the Sinfonia seem great looking and around the power I'd need. And reasonably priced. | |
| Tube integrated Also, I have Legacy Audio Signature SEs. I contacted them and was recommended to use tube amps at 30 WPC and above. Though I have successfully drove them with a Coincident Dynamo SET, which is only 8 WPC, so I think 25 ish watts and above should ... | |
| Tube integrated @1graber2 The issue is XLR outout of some dacs are optimized/better than the RCA, my Metrum dac is one of these. But It's not a deal breaker or anything, I can use RCA as well, just prefer XLR.@wolf_garcia I will look into the Jolida.@jafant Yes, ... | |
| Tube integrated How about Mastersound Duetrenta? Anyone familiar with that? | |
| Tube integrated @helomech Hah! that would explain the price.@mr_m I have the all SS system, I want the tube amp to be all tube. But if I'm gonna keep it off, I suppose it could be Class A as well. As long as near 30 watts. | |
| Tube integrated @czbbcl Fair enough actually, that's why I want something with a good protection circuit, and I'll keep it off, I'm not too worried about warm up time I suppose, I don't think it takes more than 10 minutes or so to get an amp going. | |
| Tube integrated @donvito101 That VPI looks great, thanks! | |
| Tube integrated It's not a hard requirement I guess, I can use RCA. | |
| Tube integrated @yogiboy Hi, my main system is a solid sate seperates system. I wanna get a hassle free tube integrated for just to switch things up now and then. But if the sound is great then I just wanna keep it on. My eventual plan is to sell my SS separates ... | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 I am sorry, I should have been a bit more clear in my post. I am talking about the new DAC from Metrum, called Onyx. It's made with the same DAC2 modules as the Pavane 3, but instead of 4 modules per channel, it has 2 modules per channel. And ac... | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 @gdhal, yes possibly, I’d say it’s the best dac (depending on your taste: r2r/delta-sgma, OS/NOS) within the 2K - 6K range. We all know, money doesn’t equate to quality of course. I also know what you have obviously, due to the other thread and I’... | |
| Best used or new DAC under $3500 Fairly certain I know which dac is the best under $3500. | |
| Falling out of love with tubes " By “going direct” I meant plugging the headphone out jack of my computer into the input of the SA-250 amp and using the volume control of the computer. Also, my Denon cassette player has an output level control. Thanks!"--- A few things, your tu... | |
| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? Yes, you have no experience with things in general, which is obvious. You are fundamentally misunderstanding life. |
