| Recommendations for really well-recorded music for high-end audio system demo I always check these frequent threads on various forums (and magazines etc) looking for new tracks to check out. Frequently it's "the usual" but some great new (to me) ones on this thread. Thanks! In case they weren't already mentioned here, a co... | |
| Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? Someone mentioned the Goldenear Triton Ref speakers. I have a pair of those and a pair of the one.Rs. For a smaller space the one.Rs are wonderful. Larger space the Refs are great! | |
| What’s the best DAC < 6k (system specific) +1 for the Holo May KTE | |
| Apple Music Audio Quality Eversolo DMP-A6 I had an email exchange with Eversolo support. They said the improvements between standard and Master DMP-A6 don't affect the HDMI output. So I assume it's more on the DAC side than the digital outputs. Happy to be using my standard version for &... | |
| I want to move from Rega Planar 6 help me to pick a new turntable I have the RP-8 and swapped to a Garrott Bros cartridge - tremendous sound! | |
| Holo Audio May DAC Thanks, will continuing to set it to standby when I won't be listening for a while. | |
| Holo Audio May DAC Do people who own the May keep it on 24x7? I tend to turn it on for a session, and then turn it off overnight, turning it on again in the morning. Wondering if leaving it on would shorten its lifespan etc... | |
| DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 Hi https://forum.audiogon.com/users/mitch2. Sure. I have the KTE edition. I upgraded from the Spring Level 3 (and actually kept that one, put it into my HT system for when I listen to 2 channel there).I find the May to be detailed, revealing, dyn... | |
| DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 Loving my Holo Audio May DAC - makes digital sound analog (in the best way possible). | |
| $10K Budget for Speakers: Martin Logan Masterpiece vs Tannoy I find the GoldenEar Triton Refs and One.Rs to be outstanding. Sold by dealers so you can go listen to them... | |
| Thinking about getting a R2R DAC In skimming this thread I didn't see them mentioned so thought I'd shout out to Kitsune' / Holo Audio. I first went with the Holo Spring Kitsune' edition R2R from a standard chip DAC and loved the improved sound. R2R for me until some kind of aud... | |
| Looking for a front end streamer only. Wanting higher resolution that the Node 2i supports I recently added the SoTM SM-200 Neo to my system. Sounds excellent, supports very high res, and has great features. Only nit is that if I want to switch from streaming Roon to say streaming fr... | |
| Most organic / real / analogue sounding DAC (ideally with Volume Control) for $1500?????? I think you are on the right track with R2R. As others say a lot depends on the other components and source materials but I find they are more "analog sounding". I had chip-based dacs, went with at TT and LPs to get that analog sound, then switche... | |
| I am frustrated with the sound from my DAC I wasn't really happy with any chip based DAC. Went to a resister ladder dac and couldn't be happier. | |
| Should I sell my DAC Love my r2r DAC. Makes bad compressed audio sound great, and uncompressed sound extra great, and no fatigue. |
