Peachtree GaN 400 vs Class D Audio Mini GAN 5 The Peachtree trade-in program is certainly what motivated me to pull the trigger on the GaN 400I will be very interested in hearing your comparison with the Raven Blackhawk. The GaN 400 doesn't have a rich, rounded, tubey sound so I imagine it w... | |
Peachtree GaN400 - Anyone Listened To It? I got the GaN400 yesterday and have spent a few hours listening to it and doing an A/B comparison with my DIY First Watt M2x which is my favorite out of the 8 amps I have. I think it is a little early to draw any definitive conclusions, but I can... | |
Ex Dunlavy Owners - What Other Speakers Have Made You Happy? There is a pair of Dunlavy SC-V for sale on Reverb right now for $5K. And I would have thought either the Tekton Moabs or Tekton Ulfberhts would have been logical speakers to consider. I've been very happy with my Moabs and prefer them to the ot... | |
My New Magnepan 1.7i's sound dull and lifeless on the top end...why? Maggies are very sensitive to positioning. You might try them with the tweeters on the inside and tilted towards you. Just put CD cases behind the back legs. Make sure they are several feet from the rear wall and try various angles. But in gen... | |
Tekton speaker comparison thread I have had the Tekton Moabs with BE tweeter and upgraded crossover for about 7 months. I think they are fabulous speakers, especially for the money. I also have a pair of Magnepan 3.7's set up in a second room. The ribbon tweeters in the 3.7's ... | |
GR Research Power Cables If you are going to buy those cables it is cheaper to just buy them on Aliexpress rather than eBay. | |
GR Research Power Cables I assume shielded in a standard power cable is better and I use these for that https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/686-17605 or https://www.alliedelec.com/product/volex-power-cords/17604-10-b1/70115980/ I'm not going to make any claim for these o... | |
GR Research Power Cables abdodsonI decided to assume the GR Research cord is just using the same cables as their speakers and I've ordered 12TC cable and some cheap connectors from Aliexpress to try building my own. They won't have the nice cover or cotton core but will ... | |
GR Research Power Cables Is there a chance the GR Research power cable is just their 16 strand speaker cable with a 16 AWG ground wire running through the middle? | |
New and engaging rap and hip hop artists Thanks for bringing up Pharoahe Monch and Erykah Badu. Both seem well worth listening to. At 63 I love discovering new, innovative music. | |
SMSL SU-9 DAC - Is it a budget alternative fit for an audiophile ? The SU-9 is amazing for the price. I find it a little brittle sounding and prefer the Ares II DAC but the SU-9 is more fully featured for 30% less money. It is a solid recommendation for any audiophile unwilling to spend 2-3x more at a minimum. | |
Newbie to Vinyl Seeks Tips millercarbon - First, I want to be clear, I said your system was extraordinary, which I think it is, but I never said I liked it. I certainly don't aspire to replicate the sound that you have worked so hard to achieve. I have no idea what leads ... | |
Newbie to Vinyl Seeks Tips millercarbon - Hi Chuck. Thanks for the recommendation for the Mobile Fidelity brush. I had been overwhelmed by all the brush choices so I simply went ahead and bought one based on your recommendation. I would say that I am more curious about r... | |
Newbie to Vinyl Seeks Tips artemus - Thanks. Is that the Milty Zerostat 3 that you are recommending? Lots of negative reviews for that on Amazon. | |
Newbie to Vinyl Seeks Tips whart - Thanks for all that advice. I'll browse through the London Jazz Collector site. My musical tastes are quite varied and evolving. I ignored jazz for most of my life but I'm finding myself enjoying some of the more contemporary experiment... |
