| your first system- @4krowme "This is when I learned that if want something bad enough, you have to work for it. That lesson payed off very well." I wish the more current generations would learn this lesson. No offense to others, just saying nothing should be free. ... | |
| your first system- What started my journey was an old table-top AM radio my uncle gave me at age 6 or so. One day I was listening to it and laying on my bed, I reached over to turn it up and pushed it off the night stand - I heard a breaking of glass and that was th... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @cd45123 To clarify, for the last year I have been using the Audio Envy $179 P2 and the $279 M3 power cords. I like them and as I noted before, they easily bested the Isotek $1k power cord. As many, including yourself, say that Zavfino is better... | |
| your first system- Great topic. My first two systems were MCS or Modular Component Systems back around 1974 or so. Don’t remember much about the model numbers but my second system had a MCS 3233 receiver, 33 WPC. Had MCS speakers, turntable, cassette deck, headphon... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Lots of great comments in here. Keep them coming. I believe that @kimurastanley also has some Hijiri. If you'd comment, that'd add value. Thank you. | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread Gentlemen, I do appreciate all your comments and concerns. All valuable here. Please, let's keep this on topic and cordial. Honestly, I never thought that this thread would go over one page, but glad that there are those out there who have contri... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread This is exactly the feedback I was looking for. Very much appreciated. When folks like grannyring, lak, wig, & lalitk all report fairly similar results, and some of those users also having used Audio Envy and Zavfino, you can have a better id... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @lalitk I was afraid you were going to say that. As Bill says, that is some rarified air for sure. | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @lalitk @grannyring @wig Thank you all for your comments. In a world where there are so many choices, it really helps to hear from others about their perceptions on cables. I think I'm looking for what you all say about Hijiri, it has this "... | |
| Zavfino @grannyring OK Bill, I've created a 聖HIJIRI thread. forum.audiogon.com/discussions/hijiri-users-thread-2 Those of you who've used 聖HIJIRI and made the move, or haven't, would really love to hear your thoughts and comments. | |
| A different world @ghdprentice "I think my concern is that someone not familiar with the technology would come away thinking getting good streaming requires an advanced degree in networking". I'd totally agree with you, that is certainly not the truth. People jus... | |
| Zavfino @lak Just curious what Hijiri Nagomi cables (power, SC, IC) were compared to Zavfino and what model Zavfino was compared to the Nagomi. Would you mind stating what differences you hear and what you thought was better? I've had Audio Envy P and ... | |
| A different world @ghdprentice Weird on your EtherREGEN experience. I found that it works quite well; then added a Paul Hynes LPS - nearly as good as the ER; then have been through four different Network cables and found more there as well. Also moved to fiber in... | |
| A different world Not to steal lalitk's thunder, but just go look at his system by clicking on his user name. I've looked at his system many times; it must be pretty amazing sound with his attention to detail in how he puts systems together. | |
| Wadax Reference Dac and Reference Server--arrived in my room. @sns "Perfect sound forever used to be a joke, maybe not so much a joke anymore." Fully agreed. @mikelavigne Mike, thanks for starting this thread. My system is only digital and it gets better, most times, after an upgrade. I'm enjoying the p... |
