| Pure Class-A Amp under $2000 (USED) +1 Schiit Aegir(s) x2 monoblocks. I currently run a pair of Schiit Aegirs into my Wilson Benesch speakers which are, I believe a 6 ohm speaker with no difficulty at all, 80 watts per monoblock and I never have it over 25%. Lovely sounding class A... | |
| Nagaoka MP 300 Cartridge I think I am generally careful with all my vinyl, all have been cleaned recently (using a wet system and vac.), stored in appropriate inner liners and cleaned with a carbon fibre brush before playing. I do not currently own a stylist brush, cleane... | |
| Nagaoka MP 300 Cartridge Interesting, I have never herd of stylist lubricant, i will check it out. Based on what I have seen on the internet it seems the 300 to 500 hour range seems to be the standard. I will be using 350 hours as my time to pick-up something new, I was i... | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 Update, after a bit more research (thanks for the notes included above) and in an effort to avoid additional wiring and another connection I decided to go with the Audiolab 6000CDT and have been playing CD's non stop since I installed it. I am ext... | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll I have to say that over the period I have running my Class A mono amps, coupled with my tubed preamp, I have been loving my music again. There is a sweet spot with these mono Class A amps that allows listening with no fatigue, glare or otherwise u... | |
| Dropouts when steaming with WiFi connection (Amazon Music). Update, I tried resetting the new Modum to the centre of the room per info from "Yage", instead of up against the basement wall. This was no easy feat, but will try this out as my first step, as no additional costs involved, just some elbow grease... | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 Thanks "SOIX", I'll check it out! Didn't think to check audiomart. | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 I Checked the reclocker cost and by the time I get it landed in canada, the cost would be in excess of $500.00, so a new Audiolab 6000 might be my option. I have read some good experiences members have had with this unit and I can purchase the Au... | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 The wired 4 sound Reclocker sounds like the perfect solution. I think if the CD option was marginally better, sound wise, I may start using it again, like throwing on an album or 6. I just like the physical simplicity and going through and choosin... | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 I use my computor USB and a Solid State hard drive to the Gustard Dac for most of my digital music, I also use this configuration for Music Streaming which I am trying out. Right now the USB from the computor playing flac CD files from the hard dr... | |
| CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 Thanks for the input, I run my hard drive off my music computor to a Gustard X26 Pro Dac, Audio Research LS 25 Line Preamp to Twin Aegir Mono Amps and finally Wilson Benesch Square 2 Speakers, and 2 REL T/X5 Subs. I am a little out of the loop whe... | |
| Dropouts when steaming with WiFi connection (Amazon Music). Thanks to everyone for their input on this issue, I will try them out and see which solution works. | |
| Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? I am a recent meddler in the music streaming world, all I have added was an app on my computer. I have been into high definition downloaded files for a while and I have a pretty good dac, so all I am missing is a dedicated music steamer. I am dedi... | |
| SACD iso and DSD noise when stopping or closing music player I am having the same problem using J River from my laptop using windows 10 to the Gustard x26 PRO. If there is a driver fix available please let me know! This is very frustrating, I am currently having to mute my preamp during stop of playback. | |
| This is good Schiit... I would agree with your view on the Schiit Aegir x2 Amps running in mono. A recent purchase, but now nicely broken in, I have enjoyed the easy relaxed sound and feel of these Class A amps, compared with my previous big power SS amp. A silky smooth... |
