| Fleetwood Sound Company @riaa_award_collectors_on_facebook that's looking better... just need a grill to cover up that orange and grey driver! | |
| Fleetwood Sound Company @grislybutter are you referring to the Cube Audio Nenuphar, the Fleetwood Deville, or both? I find them both unusual, particularly the Nenuphar, as I prefer wood finishes and grills in most cases. I think I could live with the looks of the Flee... | |
| Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Harbeth SHL5+ Comparing Persperctive2's to Harbeth SHL5's is is probably not a fair fight (like taking a knife to a gun fight). I'd be interested to hear how the Perspective2 compares to Harbeth 40.2 / 40.3's. Having owned 40.1's for about 8 years and now ow... | |
| Chord DAVE DAC Bricasti M1SE, Weiss 501 or 502 should be in the mix as well. @verdantaudio has an extensive post covering popular DAC's in this price range. | |

| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread @facten +1 @vortrex I think your last post is an excellent solution. | |
| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread @nonoise Well played! | |
| Warm Tube Amp(s) to Tame Hyper-Accurate Speakers? I had a similar experience to the OP breaking in a pair of Harbeth 40.2 Anni's. I solved the problem by positioning GIK 244 free standing panels parallel to the side and in front of each speaker, which addressed the first side reflection points. ... | |
| Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5? @pehare I'm interested to hear your observations after the amp is broken in. | |
| To Roon or not to Roon? I switched to Roon about a month ago and have been totally delighted. I went with a Roon Nucleus paired with an IFi Zen Streamer as the Roon endpoint... all for less than $2K. | |
| Looking for a change. The Rotel is likely a lateral move. I would take advantage of demoing gear from your dealer friend. Personally, I'd be looking at tube gear options. |
