| ???What's The LEAST Expensive "End Game"Amplifier You've Ever Heard??? I am optimistic that it is my recently purchased Aurorasound HFSA-01. | |
| Next step up on the streaming food chain? I own the High End 432EVO. My DAC is a Mojo Audio Mystique Y. I have not heard any of the other streamers mentioned but have owned a handful of 'lesser' streamers starting with a Bluesound Node. Just before the EVO I owned a roon Nucleus. I would ... | |
| Updating my streamer I have a 432 EVO High-End. When I first came across their website I was fascinated with the company's approach to frequency, however, the computer aesthetic of the hardware itself didn't appeal to me. I did end up buying a roon Nucleus.. not that ... | |
| 300B, 2A3 experiances wanted I'm currently running Linlai E-Series 2A3 tubes in my Yamamoto A011. So far, I like them the best of the handful I've tried. | |
| Ethernet cables Omega Micro Ebony CAT8 is a great 'inexpensive' cable. | |
| Ethernet Cables - what are you using and why? I forgot to respond to the WHY part of your query. The Freedom is the most musically satisfying ethernet cable in my experience thus far. I've made some source changes to my system since buying it so may put my Omega Micro Ebony back in to hear ho... | |
| Ethernet Cables - what are you using and why? Of the dozen or so I've tried Triode Wire labs Freedom ethernet is the one that almost makes me forget about trying anything else. | |
| I don't get it...Exile on main Street-Blue Yes, great music to listen to in the car. There are quite a few albums I've struggled with until taking them on the road. The albums from Miles Davis's 2nd quintet really landed for me while driving around late at night. Maybe records like BLUE an... | |
| WRT Cables (Chen audio labs ) I've just received one of the power cords. Listened for a few hours last night and all seems promising, very accurate sounding from the start. We'll see after it settles in. Richard suggests at least 48 hours. It is replacing an Audio Envy Ocean b... | |
| Ethernet cables It's been fun and fascinating to hear how one cable can influence the sound of my system. I've owned a couple dozen or so ethernet cables (from $10-$1000) and they all sounded different to me. The Triode Wire Lab FREEDOM is the first cable that I ... | |
| *DAC Well, I've had my Mojo Mystique Y AM dac for a few days. It certainly brings out more of the recording than my ANK 4.1x. I wouldn't say it sounds better but it is more resolving. The Mystique is still settling in so we'll see.. hear. One of my cur... | |
| *DAC Yes, cables can have profound influences on sound quality. I used to think that cables had less impact on the overall sound quality of my systems than a component change. Now, I think of them as a component change. | |
| DAC upgrade The Border Patrol dac might worth consideration. Music is something special through this little gem. Form factor is high. | |
| *DAC No. Not cheap:) But, having been in this hobby for many years I think his prices are more than reasonable. It is easy to make lateral moves in any given price range. I'm not interested in lateral moves these days. I love the sound of my ANK dac an... | |
| *DAC My apologies for being vague. Mojo Audio is the company. Benjamin is the owner's first name:) I just preordered one of his new Mystique dacs. |
