Tidal MQA vs Qobuz hi-res I A/B listened to Qobuz HighRes and Tidal MQA. I didn't hear much of a difference. In some cases, a track would sound better on one than the other, but neither was a clear winner in that department. When it came to CD quality tracks, there was n... | |
Tannoy Speaker Owners I understand 😀. And I have read nothing but good things about your amps. | |
Tannoy Speaker Owners @stringreen I realize the NAD M22v2 is the weakest link in my system. Overall however, it is a nice sounding amp. If it were not, I would have replaced it long before now.I am looking for a warmer amp that has better speaker control, particularl... | |
Tannoy Speaker Owners A lot has changed in my system since my last post. I never did audition the BC power amps. As much as I liked the ZTOL40, I’m now giving serious consideration to the PS Audio BHK 250 because I recently purchased the BHK Reference pre amp, Direct... | |
HDMI i2s Cable I'm going from an Audio Matrix X-SPDIF 2 to a PS Audio DSD. I will certainly look into the orientation before I buy. Thanks. | |
HDMI i2s Cable @docroasty. The Tubulus sounds like it will work best with my speakers my Tannoy speakers. How flexible is the cable? I only need about .5 meter, if that's an option. | |
Roon Certification News, Share In my listening room, I have a Zenith MKII. It hosts Roon core, for which I have a lifetime subscription. Between the Zenith and my DirectStream DAC sits a Matrix SPDIF X, which is the device that's enabled in Roon. I also have 6 Riva AirPlay sp... | |
How much space between cables is enough? +1 @terry9 | |
Herron VTPH-2A phono preamp owner's advice. The Herron is truly outstanding, and Keith Herron provides unparalleled customer service. I use the stock tubes that he very carefully tests and matches. Congrats! +1Before the Herron, I had a Parasound JC3jr into a Herron VSTP-3A(r02) pre amp.... | |
Herron vs PS Audio BHK vs Rogue Preamps I have a Herron and BHK. For vinyl, my Herron phono pre and Herron pre amp combination sounds much better than the Herron phono pre and BHK combination. For streaming, the BHK and DirectSteam DAC via XLR cable combination sounds much better than... | |
MHDT Orchid or Audio Mirror/ pick one for me please Again, my opinion, it is far more musical than either of the above DAC's.It has both detail, superb sound stage and imaging.The tonality is also splendid. I owned the Audio Mirror Tubadour III SE DAC. It sounded wonderful. I only sold it beca... | |
Need preamp recommendation A used Herron VTSP-3A(r02) or (r03) and LTA | |
PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users I’m convinced that long RCA interconnects could work. The SQ I get with XLR with the BHK/DSD is much better than RCA, so I intended to stick with it.I have to downsize though. I have a vintage McIntosh system that I haven’t used in over a year in... | |
PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users Wonderful it is! | |
PS Audio BHK Pre Amp and Herron VTPH-2A Phono Pre Users After futzing with loading plugs, the 1K plug gives me a sound that I’m quite happy with. I had planned to sell the 3A, but for now I’ll keep it. I’ll try the HT input after the East coast storms go away. |
