Primaluna or not Primaluna
Congrats on the Quicksilver mid-monos simna they out to be great w/your Tannoys.  Yes, there are a good many Tannoy fans here.  I've been thru a lot of tube amps and am smitten with new class D monos from Atma-Sphere paired with Stirlings.    
Cable burn in
Hey chiadrum I have a Cary DMS-600 I bought used as a trade-in from Cary and am enjoying it immensely.  I asked Cary if it was a truly balanced circuit (conforms to AES-48 standard) via XLR's and they said yes (?).  I run the Cary direct into bala... 
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
  hgeifman-  I've had the new Atma-sphere class D monos in my system for exactly 3 weeks today not using a pre-amp and they sound fantastic.  I researched whether or not they could be driven by my Cary DMS-600 before I took the plunge.  They are ... 
Class D Amplification Announcement
soix - the amp it's replacing is Music Reference RM10 MkII which I've enjoyed for 11 years now, one of my favorites of a long line of high quality tube and SS amps.  
Class D Amplification Announcement
A little over a week ago I took delivery of the Atma-sphere class D monos and they were great out of the box but after 3 days they really opened up and are the best amps I've ever heard or owned and wonderful with my Tannoys.  I'm hearing more det... 
What speakers are you using with your BAT 75SE amp?
A new pair of Tannoy Stirling GR's or used Turnberrys and you'll be in heaven.  Great w/tubes and I bet you can get a pair shipped to you for under budget.  I heard the VK60 years ago great!  
From separate streamer and DAC to al-in-one suggestion
I bought a Cary DMS-600 from Cary in NC that was a traded in unit.  Great price and product.  Never owned a dac or streamer before and jumped in via Qobuz and am glad I did.  Cary CD players last 20 yrs or so......vinyl way back when.  Enjoy!  
Suggest one obsure album we all should hear
thanks mbennes for the "Sandy Denny, Like an Old Fashion Waltz" recommendation   
Gregg Allman .......I cannot believe it has been 5 years.
Wow, that 5 years sure flew by, crazy.  I remember the day I bought Allman Brothers Beginnings double album at Luskin's appliance store back in MD when I was a kid in the early 70's.  Later I moved to FL where I'd see the Brothers play on South Mi... 
Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5?
I've got some new class D Atma-sphere monos coming soon as an alternate to my Music Reference RM10....interesting times ahead cheers!  
Another person going digital and full of questions
Today I received a Cary DMS-600 direct from Cary in NC that was a trade-in for 1800 delivered.  Arrived in Mint condition.  They have another DMS-500 unit for 1200 and perhaps more units available.  I've liked the Cary CD players I've had in the p... 
GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager?
I for one am seriously looking forward to pairing the new class D Atma-sphere monos with my Tannoy Stirling GR's.....ye MF'in ha!  
Amp Recommendations for Marantz 7c
Rumor has it RAM Labs/Music Ref is coming out with an updated RM10 Mk3 in a few months.......if I didn't already have a pristine RM10 Mk2 bought new from Roger in 2011 I'd be onboard.  
Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5?
I use and really enjoy a Music Reference RM-10 Mk II, 35 wpc w/my Stirling GR's since 2019 driven by a Cary 303/300 cdp w/internal volume control and it's plenty of power in a medium size room w/vaulted ceiling.  I normally listen around 75-85 dB ... 
JPS Labs Superconductor Q
Great sounding cables...JPS Labs fan here.  Have them re-terminated at JPS w/bigger spades or bananas or what I did years ago.  Unscrewed and removed the binding post of the speakers I had at the time and carefully used a dremel tool w/a cylindric...
