| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs I've never felt the need for subs with my 40 series, but if I were to go down that path, I'd look at REL. Sounds like you may prefer a different kind of speaker... maybe some large JBL's or Klipsch Cornwalls. | |
| Anyone have experience with MSB Technology products compared to dCS? I have no experience with either DAC manufacturer, but I recommend you keep your Nucleus + and use the MSB or DCS DAC as a Roon endpoint. The Roon interface is light years ahead of Aurender... it's not even close. | |
| Wanting to upgrade my streaming sound quality. Thanks to @jjss49 to guiding me to the Roon solution referenced in my previous post. | |
| Wanting to upgrade my streaming sound quality. For others still on the fence about upgrading their digital, I just replaced a significantly more expensive Aurender server/streamer with a Roon Nucleus paired with an IFi Zen Stream (as the Roon endpoint) connected to my DAC via spdif. While thi... | |
| Help With A New DAC/Streamer I just replaced a significantly more expensive Aurender server/streamer with a Roon Nucleus paired with an IFi Zen Stream (as the Roon endpoint) connected to my DAC via spdif. While this set up took me a while to figure out, the improvements in s... | |
| IFi Zen Stream as Roon Endpoint disregard. | |
| Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps? The best sounding amp I owned was a VAC Renaissance 70/70 Signature. I only sold it because I had to send it to VAC twice for repairs and each time, it would take 6-8 weeks for the repair and the price to repair fairly simple issues was disproport... | |
| Fuse Direction for Pass Labs Amp and Preamp @atmasphere +1 Thank you for speaking truth to these myths that continue to be perpetuated by companies like Synergistic Research. I don't know how people that own companies like that sleep at night. Ted Denney and the My Pillow Guy are one in ... | |
| Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5? I hope you don't sell that beautiful Leben only to find your DAC was the limiting factor. If possible, explore/experiment with other DAC's before switching amps. | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) I wanted to buy an Innuos Zenith, but given it only works with USB DAC's, I had to look elsewhere. If they ever add SPDIF or AES/EBU compatibility, I will seriously reconsider. | |

| which amp for bedroom system with harbeth 7es-3 XD I trust your experience and advice. I will have to keep that in mind if I ever feel the need to get a backup amp or replace my RM9 if it became irreparable. Luxman 590axii is on my bucket list. | |
| which amp for bedroom system with harbeth 7es-3 XD @jjss49 Do you prefer Hegel 590 to a comparably priced tube amp with Harbeth 40 series (40.2 or 40.3)? | |
| Schiit Freya + Class A in Stereophile @yyzsantabarbara which two preamps did you like better? | |
| Who's using Harbeth with tubes, what speaker model and how many watts per channel? I've owned SHL5's, 40.1's (twice) and now 40.2 Anni's... and I've never been satisfied driving them with solid state and always come back to tube amps. My current amp (vintage Music Reference RM9 MK2 with RFT EL34's) has stayed with me the longes... |
