| Jobsys Integrated vs Peachtree Nova150 Congrats! The peachtree is a great amp, you can't go wrong. | |
| Jobsys Integrated vs Peachtree Nova150 The first thing to note is that the Job INT is made by Goldmund (we’re talking very high end audio) and is a Class AB amp vs the Peachtree which is a Class D amp. Many audiophiles will say that a Class AB amp sounds better, but Class D amps have c... | |
| So, if you had my system to work with and were thinking about adding a DAC... I recently heard an Exposure amp and it's definitely underrated in my view. In regards to MQA, quoting...Public Enemy - Don’t believe the hype! I’ve heard several MQA tracks and honestly, I don’t understand all the fuss. Tidal’s lossless FLAC str... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT @hifiman5, you were spot on. Clark Terry's album "Portraits" is an excellent recording and one of the albums I'm using to break in the speakers. I also recommend giving Eric Dolphy - "When Lights Are Low" a listen. I heard him play on one of C... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I got Eric Dolphy - "When Lights Are Low" playing tonight. He played with Mingus, Coltrane. Solid player. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT Thx. Didn't notice before and unlike other SS amps Ayre puts the ax5 to standby mode so it's never really cold. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT Does this sound reasonable to you guys? My Ayre AX-5 Twenty (upgraded) is breaking in at the same time as my Treo CT. Like a tube amp, I'm convince the Ayre sounds better after it plays for 30 mins. Is this maybe a part of the break in process f... | |
| Why do Harbeth P3ESRs sound different? If it's a blown tweeter only one side should sound bad. You can try switching the speakers and and do A/B comparison. I'm surpise to hear that used speakers needed that much breakin time. Check with Harbeth and at else confirm the serious numbers... | |
| Hegel H-160 or Parasound Halo Integrated I've only heard the Parasound Halo a few times but each time it never left an impression on me. The few times I heard the Hegel, I kept telling myself his one should stay on the list. The sound was full, clean and natural. You really need to lis... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT CT, btw you can get the Clark Terry "Portraits" album in 96/24 high rez at hdtracks. You can also stream it through Tidal. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT Thanks for the suggestion! | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT Thanks. I’m really looking forward to the carbon tweeters to break In. Any good suggestions on these well recorded jazz cymbals? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I haven’t heard these in a long time...Miles Davis - So WhatJohn Coltrane - Blue TrainLauryn Hill - MTV Unplugged No. 2.0Bobby Marley - Uprising | |
| D'Agostino vs. Ayre I would not considered Vandies dark. The Treo CT is in my opinion mostly neutral with a touch of warmth..smooth. With that said, the Ayre, just makes my Vandy Treo CT sing :). It just makes it sound musical and natural. I can listen to the co... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT CT, you must be going crazy waiting for your Quatro CT to arrive. My Treo CT / Ayre AX-5/20 are still on their course to breaking in nicely. I really do love how fast these speakers perform. Just finish listening to Mediterranean Sundance / Rio An... |
