Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers You have no clue until you hear OB bass done right. And Spatial gets it right. You can speculate all you like, but that's all you are doing.Oz | |
one box solution? I'm sticking with my 1997 Marantz CD67 player! Truly excellent! I will put it up against any of today's expensive transports/DACs! One box to rule them all ... You surely don't get out much. There are dozens of DACs now that would have been con... | |
Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers The very low bass is going to be very confused. I would cross over to a sealed sub at 100 Hz. I seriously doubt that. My X3s go reach down to 25 hz with authority. The bass is very controlled and pitch correct. OB bass is probably about the mos... | |
Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers I agree with the spatial recommendation. A fair comparison to the PAP would be the X series.Oz | |
If you listen to anything other than Classic Jazz, don't read this. I love classic jazz, along with just about everything else. But I opened the thread anyway, even though I was warned.I doubt anyone else who posted fit your criteria either. I’ve only known one such person in my life, sadly he is no longer with us... | |
switching between two amplifiers; issues of power As a side bar, I’d suggest looking at speakers that aren’t so difficult to drive. It will make your amplifier choices easier and sound quality will improve too, all things considered.Oz | |
Lumin D2 or U1 Mini I have a Bluesound Node2 paired with a Benchmark3 and I'd be very curious how it performs paired with a better streamer like the U1 Mini. I bet the Mini would sound better than the Node with any DAC. It has a more natural presentation than the ... | |
Lumin D2 or U1 Mini I'm not familiar with the sound of the Benchmark. But if you are happy with it, I would go with the mini. That is what I did and it was a very nice improvement over the Node 2i. My take on it is this. Since the D2 is only 300.00 more than the U1 m... | |
Most Musical 6NS7 tube for a Preamp? I had an Ultraverve and it was a nice preamp. But ultimately it didn't have the resolution I wanted. It was a little too "tubey". I will soon be taking delivery of a Don Sachs Model 2 with all the upgrades. I have been living with TVCs and LDRs fo... | |
Silver is the appropriate color for everything but speakers. Honestly, I'm surprised more manufacturers haven't taken the plunge into designer colors, a la Focal Kanta. Hey, I'd rock a bright red preamp! | |
External DAC connection for Bluesound Node 2i (after "Another streaming newbie" thread) I used a DH Labs coaxial digital cable into an MHDT Pagoda. Although the DAC in the Node is not bad on its own and is highly listenable, the Pagoda was much richer in tone and more dynamic. Even MQA files from Tidal sounded better with the Pagoda ... | |
Silver is the appropriate color for everything but speakers. Black is the new black. And the best black........ | |

Erhard Audio? I sent Holger a message yesterday inquiring about a demo. Either the "rona got him, or he's just got too much business already. Either way, a response would be nice, even if it's only to tell me to "pound sand"...........Oz | |
MHDT dac...and which streamer/server? ANOTHER new reference dac for Terry? I can't keep up Lol. Believe me, no one expects you to. It's comical to say the least.......Oz |
