New purchase Bryston bdp 2
I agree. Very good value. Mine was also factory upgraded with the newest board and software. I am using the spdif BNC output connection with an adapter to RCA, a 75 ohm coaxial cable to an RCA input on my Audio Note 3.1 Dac. At some point I will t...

Hearing aids for audiophiles?
For those of you that use hearing aids for day to day use... What effect does it have on your music listening  when you take them out. Does the music become veiled, muted, dull?Here is a little test. While listening  cup your hands behind your ear... 
Hearing aids for audiophiles?
I am hoping to get responses from people that have /do wear them or have experience, family members that wear them. Do you wear hearing aids by chance?  
Streamer opinion.. Pease comment on validity.
Thanks all for the comments. I beleive this thread has shed some light on a topic that has been wondered about by many members looking to buy a streamer. It definitely has for me. For myself, the system I have warrants at least a mid level streame... 
Streamer opinion.. Pease comment on validity.
So it seems pretty clear now that there are sound difference in the absence of a dac in a streamer.What causes those difference? Is it mainly the circuitry, the quality of the components or the software?All cabling etc being equal of course 
Streamer opinion.. Pease comment on validity.
Anyone have a technical opinion/ information on the subject?Maybe a couple of real world a/b’s betweenStreamers hooked to the same DAC?

Looking for recommendations for a 'warm' sounding DAC
Hi Charles"Your ears regognise it"  I never thought of it that way but that is exactly what is happening. That's a very good way to describe it. As a result of buying the AN 3.1 I ended up buying an M6 phono, a set of P4 mono blocks and a second A... 
Looking for recommendations for a 'warm' sounding DAC
I came from similar sounding Dacs to yourBryston.  NAD M51, Moon 600 and a few others. That were all good. I was then introduced to the Audio Note 3.1. It was a game changer. So much more musical with no fatigue. Cymbals, piano, bells had a chime,... 
Beginner Audiophile. How to chose a right amp? Recommendation for my setup?
I would suggest a Harman Kardon Citation 16 or A Bryston 3 or 4BST. All the power you will ever need. I have a completely rebuilt better than new HK 16 that I would part with.Research them both. You won't be disappointed and they are easily in you...

I have 12" Monitor Gold's in self made 190L cabinets. Devore Orangutan 093 styling.   Audio Note supplies all the goods. They easily replaced a set of ANK spe's.I immediately noticed the layering/ separation of instruments and details that stood o... 
The Biggest Upgrade Possible?
Great topic to contemplate. In the mid 80's My first stereo at 23 was pretty good. 400 watts of SAE power,  Technics SBE 200 speakers, Thorens TD 124 TT. All vinyl. For me and my friends, it was unbeleiveable how good it sounded. Fast forward 30 y...
