| My 1st Tube Equipment Experience @jmolsberg Thank you for mentioning the Tubadour DAC. Next up, a better phone preamp than my Parasound JC3 Jr. I think I see a Herron VTPH-2A in my Christmas stocking. | |
| My 1st Tube Equipment Experience My Tubadour Signature arrived today. The DAC came expertly packed. The build quality is excellent and it looks good. And, it was a pleasure doing business with Vlad.Out of the box, the Tubadour sounds much better than my Liberty DAC. It should ... | |
| A moderate priced dac @jmolsberg I just ordered the Tubadour III Statement to replace my MyTek Liberty. I can’t wait to hear it in my system. | |
| Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP I ordered the Audio Mirror Tubadour III Statement DAC yesterday. It will be here next week. | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? The only class D amp that I've ever heard is the NAD M22 v2. I've paired it with a Herron VTSP-3A (r02) tube preamp.

| My 1st Tube Equipment Experience I've finally found my sweet spot with the Herron and NAD settings. The Herron gain is set to low; the NAD M22 v2 gain is set to mid. Now I understand why many here have recommended a tube preamp and SS poweramp. I'm quite happy with the Herron/... | |
| Fedex issues I have these same issues with FedEx and UPS. While somewhat inconvenient, I have UPS deliver high dollar items to my local UPS store for pickup; I have FedEx hold my delivery at the distribution center for pickup. With other things, I take my ch... | |
| Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection? I have 1200 to 1300 vinyl albums collected during the 70’s and 80’s. Most are in very good to excellent condition because, I recorded about 40 reels and 100 cassettes from my favorite ones and mostly listened to them. I went the CD route for a wh... | |
