| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Mike, here's what I would do if I started over in my space with all I learned over the last few years and knowing the impact it had in my room (and in my opinion that's a huge variable for your new space) Turntable - I have a Rega P8 at the $100k... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Good luck on your journey. I would enjoy the process - you earned it. I'm fortunate enough to have a dealer I trust to work with and it allows me the opportunity for home auditions and even occasional opportunities at demos. There's a few upgra... | |
| What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound? I heard a difference with Shunyata Venom 10 NR - I acquired it for $350 as a demo. I was 'lent' it to see if I noticed and appreciated the difference - it did and for me it was worth the price. | |
| help choosing a turn table @rbgator94 my first thought is...do you have a trusted audio dealer? My rationale is they may have a great used opportunity and possibly one you can audition. If new is your goal, I really appreciate the combination of simplistic solution and st... | |
| Match for McIntosh 352 I've owned a set of Sonetto V's driven by C2600 and MC 302 - > wonderful speaker. Obviously opinions vary and I think the Sonetto V is a great speaker. | |
| Ideas for Pre/Power $9000? If you are willing to explore used - I'd consider Moon 390 and 330A.... It's a preamp with streaming DAC and phono stage and an amp. | |
| Ultrasonic cleaning I have an audio desk and use their solution-good results from my perspective. | |
| PS audio or Moon I’m a huge Moon fan…. Great product and value. If you live a Moon dealer you can also try to obtain a factory refurbished one from folks who trade up. Likely 75% of MSRP | |
| Are cable “upgrades” just as likely to make your system sound worse? Worse is a judgment and in the ears of the beholder. Different may happen and the difference is based on the ‘system’. Cables are upgrades I experimented later in my journey and it had an impact I liked. And I started with speaker cables, ... | |
| Benchmark or McIntosh.... Good luck! I think based on your choices I'd go with McIntosh. I've owned them and they are fun to listen to and with the mixed use I think they'd shine. | |
| Replacing surround with sound bar Several years ago I replaced NAD T765 with PSB speakers and Mirage sub for a Bluesound sound bar to down size. I haven’t regretted it though I use my tv as a monitor for Roon probably more than for tv or movies. It’s an option and if align... | |
| One key to building great systems over time. @ghdprentice I appreciate your comments and agree with you. Your points help demonstrate currency is not just cash - it's also time. For me I enjoyed listening to my first system (MCS receiver and techniques turn table) no less than I enjoy my ... | |
| SimAudio Moon North Collection @magnuman I just listened to the 791 in my house versus my 390...it was a significant change and I'm going to get the 791. And given the sound I won't be looking to move the 860A v2 to monoblocks. The sound stage, depth, texture and dynamics wer... |
