| Pass XA25 for my system I agree with Souix. I didn’t find the pass all that resolving. I would go with the Clayton‘s. | |
| questions about Innuos Pulse Mini streamer usage @mgw that does not make sense. The unit requires a DC power input. It would not matter whether it comes from a switching power supply or linear power supply as long as it stays within the spec. | |
| Can I use my Nakamichi cassette deck to record on tape into a Schiit Freya plus preamp? Just root the output of your tape deck into your preamp… And connect your phone preamp directly to your tape deck. That way you will be getting the best quality recording, and you can monitor your recording as you go. | |
| PS Audio BHK signature preamp I found the benchmark amplifier to be on the sterile side, and boring. Good thing they have a return policy. You can try it out. I have never heard a coda, but would love to. | |
| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 Yes! That is exactly what I bought it for, Bluetooth. Everything else I handle directly with my DAC. But my DAC does not have Bluetooth. I am really disappointed at the quality of the Bluetooth. | |
| Does the Cambridge CXN100 sound the same as the MXN10 I have always experienced muffled sound quality from the WIM system. I’ve used a couple different models. I’m wondering if I’m doing something wrong! I know at least one other person who has the same conclusion. Any thoughts on that? | |
| It was the output tubes all along... I will need to contact Kevin Hayes and ask whether I can use KT 170 in my phi 200 amplifiers. Can you suggest a good source? | |
| Triangle Art Metis Horn Speakers @jayctoy Yes, those were at Axpona 2024, as described here. | |
| Wireless speakers Check out vanatoo speakers for a budget and technology friendly solution. They exhibited at the Pacific Northwest Audio fest, and are very good sounding. They have a 30 day return policy. | |
| Recommendation for tube preamp Ayre balanced preamp. I liked it. Had the BAT 3i. Unremarkable Whoops. Not tube. Try Backert for affordable balanced. | |
| Triangle Art Metis Horn Speakers @shkong78 Yes Thomas. I noticed a slight coloration as well… But I felt it was likable! Thanks for your observations! | |
| Triangle Art Metis Horn Speakers I plan on visiting them at their facility/showroom and listening to more styles of music and different amplification, including AGD Class D Amps. Their showroom is similar size to my listening room, 13 X 18 So it will be interesting to see how the... | |
| Impressions of Pacific Audio Fest 2024 I agree that the Estelon room was very impressive, quite neutral and brought you right to the music. But quite pricey at $80k for the speakers. I also really liked the Triangle Art room. Big beautiful sound that filled the room. | |
| Triangle Art Metis Horn Speakers I also heard them and thought they sounded excellent. Very impressive for the price point. I would also love to hear from people who have them in their homes or have seriously auditioned the Metis speakers. Please share your impressions! | |
| Looking for a great front ported bookshelp speaker recommendation Two non ported or front ported monitors that I own and enjoy are the Raidho X-1T and the Falcon LS3/5 gold badge |
