| Which is better: Spendor BC1, SP1/2, or SP2/3. What do you mean by “add”? You mean as alternative speakers to rotate with your current Spendors? Or to have four speakers playing at the same time? | |
| Denafrips Athena- is damn good Drunk posting aside, the Athena is on my short list of next preamps. It shares the top of that list with a fully specced Hattor Audio preamp. I would like to hear more opinions, either high or sober. | |
| Qobuz Skipping or Short Pauses Have you changed internet providers lately? I went from Xfinity to Glofiber a few months ago and had problems with a lag at the beginning of each track. It was an issue with the IP address (or some such thing) and Glofiber had to fix it on their e... | |
| Best streamer for a returning audio guy I like the idea of a raspberry pi set up as mentioned above (Allo). But be aware that you will need some level of network and computer proficiency to make it work. It's not too bad, but not plug n play either. The Bluesound Node is your best bet f... | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? Tallest = Magnepan 3.5r Heaviest = Current LaScala II @ 175 lbs. each. | |
| Streaming vs Physical Media In my case, music ripped to a hard drive sounds equal or better than when using a transport. Qobuz can sound as good, depending on the release. I have the same streamer as you. | |
| Ridiculous sale Capitalism is good. In this case, the market will let the seller know he is out to lunch. Or someone will buy it because they don’t want to wait in line. Yeah I think he’s a douche for pricing it so high, but I show my distaste by NOT buying the a... | |
| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread I can’t find the thread on WBF. Can you link to it? | |
| Albums you do not get...a plea for help and understanding @larsman Agreed. The only studio version I can dig is "In the Dark". | |
| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread Well there's no really good reason for the thread to be deleted. There were no politics, no slander, no name calling. I doubt anyone other than Viking got their precious feelings hurt. Just facts by the OP (as far as we know) and posts of support ... | |
| Warm Tube Amp(s) to Tame Hyper-Accurate Speakers? Try any of the earlier Cary Audio preamps/amps. You'll be swimming in syrup... | |
| How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp? Is the SUT or the phono stage in close proximity to your amplifier? Could the power transformer in the amp be the cause? Just thinking out loud.... | |
| Focal Sopra, Kanta, Aria A friend of mine has had Kanta 2s for a few years. Every time I've listened to them I found them to be enjoyable. It's not the speaker I would buy, but they are not fatiguing in the least, to my ears. That said, he has grown tired of them and is l... | |
| Any good audio stores in Scottsdale? Dedicated Audio. I've never actually been in their store. But I bought a phono preamp from Daniel last year and the customer service was some of the best I have ever experienced. If he were closer I'd definitely be giving him more walk in busines... | |
| Your sub experience: Easy or hard? I would say the degree of difficulty for me was moderate. |
