| ??? Are Manufacturers Killing Our Hobby ??? I also think there's never been a better time for hardware. Yes there is plenty of overpriced stuff out there that few can afford but overall there are some really good choices out there. | |
| seeking pure streamer.....Aurender A1000 vs N150 as a streamer only? Would love to hear some thoughts on the A1000. I have a N200 and it's been great. Support with Aurender is top notch. I've been telling my Dad to check out the A1000 , his Eversolo A6 has been a victim of bad firmware and now it has intermit... | |
| Thoughts on using the DAC in my oppo 205 with a CD Transport. I had an OPPO 103d. It was a decent player. I used it over the years with several DACs and while it sounded better through them it wasn't until I replaced the 103 with a dedicated transport that I realized it was just pretty good and not great. ... | |
| current and ex-Sonus faber & McIntosh integrated amp (combo) owners - question for you Nice. Awesome combo. Enjoy | |
| Accuphase e5000 and EQUI=TECH I have a Son Of Q and its been great but I tend to run my amps directly into the wall. Sources are plugged into the Equi Tech. I also have an Adcom AC 515 plugged into it. That unit has my ethernet switch and a few other wall wart type devices p... | |
| 85 db or more efficient speaker recommendations Agree. 95 dB or higher. | |
| Bluesound node confusion Enjoy. Bluesound is a great platform, I've got a Vault 2i in my second system and its been great. Much better choice than Eversolo , the WiiM is nice but no one has the resources in the streaming arena than Lenbrook / Bluos. | |

| Best practices for speaker cabinet care Use caution on speaker finishes. Most are fine with just a microfiber cloth. Many modern finishes are water soluble and can be damaged with products made for unfinished or oiled wood. Sonus Faber is a good example. Some are lacquer finish... | |
| Pro speaker placement and voicing in NM Stand up dealer. I was interested in something a while back and he was very helpful. Unfortunately that product took a while to come to market so I chose a different phono stage. | |
| What type of speaker would sound better? I will take a high end high performance 2 way over an average less expensive three way any day. Actually doesn't matter if it's the same price, it's the design ,execution and parts quality that makes a speaker great. I recently bought these... | |
| Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.4 Liar !!! I recall saying a month or so I was done buying gear.... it was a lie too. Enjoy ! The preamp in my opinion is THE most important component in the chain, pick a great one and it elevates your whole system. | |
| Why most $3000 and lower DAC’s sound almost identical I've had the Lab 12 for three years. It's a great sounding DAC. https://pt.audio/2023/03/12/lab12-dac1-review/ It's been on their best of digital the last few years. | |
| Can using a bad tube hurt an amplifier? Anyone who has ever seen a tube arc internally knows it's a pretty scary fireworks show. If the bias runs away you'll often see the plates turn a red orange , "Red Plating" Definitely get an amp checked out if this happens with an auto bias ... |
