| Kind of Blue Some great examples, I had forgotten about, thanks for that. I have been enjoying of late, Tord Gustaven Trio-The Other Side and Chet Baker-Chet. | |
| Accuphase Experiences I have an Accuphase C260 Control Preamp and an Accuphase A20y Class A amp. As I live in a codo I have to respect that timing is everything when listening for me. Low to moderate listening volumes is my usually listening level. The compensator on t... | |
| Recommended Gain Settings for Accuphase Class A amp / Popping noise issue @cleeds - Thanks for that input, I thought I tried that sequence before, but maybe not. I tried it again, starting the preamp first, and sure enough "no popping"! I also contacting Schiit about the Mjolnir 2 and they also suggested starting the pr... | |
| Preamp headphone amplifier I have a pair of Seinhauser HD 600 which are my go to headphones, and have owned the HD 660's, and love them both balanced, with my Hybrid tubed Schiit Mjolnir 2 headphone amp. I have been having fun with tube rolling with this amp. This Headphone... | |
| Manley Chinook SE MK2 I cannot be happier with my Icon Audio PS1 MkII, it has made such a big improvement in the vinyl getting its dynamics back especially in the lower highs and midrange. I was in discussions to purchase a Manley Chinook but settled on the Icon Audio ... | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I would like to have a remote for the Schiit lokuis, but I like the simplicity of it the way it is. I am sure I would also like the Max with the remote, I am always torn between convenience and simplicity. 1st world problems. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I have been using the Schiit Lokuis for a number of years and find it a valuable item, when needed, and when not - Bypass, Simple. | |
| SVS or REVEL Subwoofer I have owned both SVS and REL subs, I find that 2 REL subs integrated the best with my system. | |
| Need some help picking my first MC Cartridge Update: I have the Hana ML installed and, I must say, I'm very happy with the results! Although early days, I have enjoyed the relaxed presentation and clarity of this MC cartridge. I have also decided to upgrade my MM Cartridge to the Nagoaka MP-... | |
| Warm vs Revealing—the struggle for balance I would also like to add that as one ages, hearing changes can impact on the way we appreciate a more nuanced (warm with some high end roll off) sound signature and a lower volume, I have found my very detailed speakers have now been tamed by a fu... | |
| Need some help picking my first MC Cartridge I had a chance to research most of the excellent recommendations including: the Denon 103 and variants, Lyra Delos which sounds very good, Various Dynovector options, Audio Technica Art9, Benz Micro Glider SL and a few others. I will add the Goldr... | |
| Need some help picking my first MC Cartridge Thanks for all the input and suggestions. Lots of options to consider. Icon Audio PSI MKII Preamp. Other Info on the Preamp: (Sensitivity - 0.5 mv MC), (Gain - 3000 MC/69db), (Load MC - 100 ohms). | |
| I Am Not an Audio Snob I have owned the schiit Lokuis for a couple of years now and love it! It is dead quite and is especially helpful with that vintage vinyl that has seen a few miles. It's also an important part of getting my listening room to behave for some record... | |
| Any High End Tube Preamps with *gasp tone controls? As an older gentleman, I also find my hearing is changing and that I need a tone control, I have therefore incorporated a Schiit Lokuis 6 level tone control into my system. It is fully balanced in & out (RCA's are also there for my tube amps w... | |
| Has Your Hobby Changed? I usually play with the resonator installed, but I agree it's heavy. I play sitting down with the banjo in my lap so it's not so bad. I also use finger picks with the banjo but don't use a pick at all with the guitar, go figure. |
