| Vinshine X Collaboration with Kinki Studio, TheTai Hang power enhancer I've had mine for about a week and I'm very pleased! I can hear more detail. On a couple of well-worn tracks, I can now make out all of the lyrics. Without the Tai Hang, the singers sounded like they were mumbling. They're not mumbling, they'r... | |
| Meitner i upgrades I compared the latest versions of MConnect and JPLAY. No comparison. JPLAY is better. | |
| Qobuz Connect Launched Yesterday Cool. Would love to hear more reports about sound quality and reliability. Roon is reliable and convenient but sound quality isn’t the best. | |
| Fyne F1-10/12 vs Harbeth 40.3 XD and Graham LS5/5 Hi Lew, I have never heard any Fyne speakers, so I cannot help you there. However, I do own Graham LS5/5 speakers which I compared carefully to the Harbeth 40.3xd. I'd be very interested in your thoughts about the two since you own them both. H... | |
| Meitner i upgrades Safe travels for your dac. Please let me know what you think. Don’t be put off by my lack of additional info. I think the new unit is noticeably better and a bargain. I’ve never been one to think the sound of components changes significantly over ... | |
| Meitner i upgrades No new impressions. Still very pleased with the upgrade | |
| Meitner i upgrades I use it as a streamer/pre/dac into a pair of AGD Duets. By the way, some folks at What’s Best report that the streamer is very good and was also upgraded as part of the i package. | |
| Meitner i upgrades I got my upgraded MA3i last Friday and let it burn in for 96 hours, which is what the dealer recommended. By the way, Rick Brown of Hi-Fi One handled the upgrade and he was great. He took care of everything, kept me up to date, and coordinated w... | |
| Seeking New Amplification for My Graham LS5/5 Speakers Best of luck with your new 800.2 amp. I hope it's a good combo. I am driving my Graham ls 5/5 with AGD Duet mono blocks. 150 W into 8 ohms & 300 W into 4 ohms. I also drive them with a DIY First Watt F4 sometimes which is 25W into 8 ohms &... | |
| Meitner i upgrades I’m no 1 in the queue for the ma3i upgrade. I’ll take the plunge. If folks are interested I’ll report my findings but it won’t be a side by side comparison. Folks on WBT have who have upgraded their EMM DA2 dacs to i status are impressed. They hav... | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… If you like the Harbeth 40.3, check out the Graham LS5/5. Same BBC heritage and similar but not identical sound. You might like one more than the other. | |

| Harbeth 40.3 and 40.2 Anniversary Congratulations on your purchase. Enjoy. | |
| Harbeth 40.3 and 40.2 Anniversary In my demo I didn't notice tonal differences between the Grahams and the Harbeths. It was not a case of increased apparent detail by goosing the presence region or trouble. If anything, the Grahams increased resolution made them more relaxing be... | |
| Harbeth 40.3 and 40.2 Anniversary I've been listening to a pair of Graham LS 5/5s for almost a year. Before making the purchase, I compared them with the 40.3xd directly at a dealer who has both brands. The dealer put down painters tape in the room and swapped the speakers in an... |
