| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found @tubeguy80 I have all banana connectors on my Aperta speaker cables. I find them more convenient than spades and I have never noticed a difference as long as they are well made with quality metallurgy. My current speakers are Tekton Nebo's, quit l... | |
| Looking to move to a Tube Integrated setup +1 on the LTA Z40+ The PL Dialog Premium with KT150 tubes will drive your Moab's nicely. And for sure the Aric Audio Transcend Push Pull with KT150's is a special amp that will also drive your speakers well. And a nice set of EL34 tubes will ad... | |

| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found @samureyex No, the bass might have been a little light at first but it has been there all along. And I can hear more details and textures as well. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Here is my 2 cents. I run an Iris 12th DDC feeding either an Audio Mirror Troubadour III SE DAC via i2s or a Luxman D-05U SACD player via Coax. The AM DAC is R2R the Lux uses Wolfson chips. Both feed a Luxman 595 class A integrated via XLR. Qobuz ... | |
| Help with Denafrips Iris 12th to Ares 12th-1 - I2S, no audio Try testing the coax connection with any RCA cable. Though not optimal, will pass the signal if it is there to pass. | |
