Wolf Von Langa SON (TAS 2022 PofY) and Gestalt Audio - my experience & review
Thank you @gestalt, very helpful! Among the high efficiency brands you carry, which one is the most placement friendly in terms of closer to wall boundary/corner? I might just go to Nashville and drop by one of these days!  
Wolf Von Langa SON (TAS 2022 PofY) and Gestalt Audio - my experience & review
Are the SON open baffle? I’m wondering if all WVL speakers are open baffle? That’d probably mean at least 2-3’ distance from front and back wall. Are the SON efficient enough to drive with 300B SET in a medium room?  
Low gain amp system matching
Thank you @kijanki for your helpful response. Correct, that the preamp gain is 18dB, not 15dB. I don't know which position of the attenuator will represent the unity gain on my  preamp. But there should be enough steps to attenuate the signal such... 
Favorite Platform for Linn LP12
I’ve a Linn LP12 (~Akurate configuration and Trampolin 2) on  the way. My floor is concrete and heavy’ish wooden rack. I don’t have empty shelf space on my rack. Hence I’m planning to use the space on my window sill.@daveyf would that be ideal? My... 
Amp recommendations for Joseph Audio Perspectives2
I used Wells Audio Innamorata II with my Perspective 2. They sound glorious. The amp doesn't get too warm and looks beautiful. 
The Absolute Sound Review On The All New Acora Acoustics SRC-1 Speakers Coming Soon !
Can't wait! Along with Joseph Audio Perspective 2, SRC-1 was the best sound in CAF cost no object. The sound still haunts me. 
New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2
Has anyone compared the prospective 2 and the pearl 20.20 with an audition?   I heard the former at CAF and fell in love.   They might be the only speaker that can pry my Thiel 3.6 and cs6 out of my system.i have a large room and although the pros... 
Joseph Audio Perspective2 vs Perspective
One member on this forum owns Perspective2 and has either owned or extensively listened to Pearl. He prefers Perspective2 ;)I've heard Pearl3 Graphene at RMAF with Doshi electronics and the Perspective2 at CAF with much more modest Unico integrate... 
Townshend Audio Podiums - current owners opinion on the merits of this product
@garebear Where did you read that the Podium sucks the life out of bass? I'm curious. Does it only happen for podium or the bars as well? Often times, isolation product causes the bass impact to diminish (which could be more neutral someone can ar... 
Bricasti M3 In the house
I see that Bricasti M3 page now says DSD 256 over DoP. Does this mean they've updated their digital input board? I also don't get how DSD 256 can be supported over DoP.Also, does anyone know whether M3 volume control is active or passive? 
New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2
Some update after living with my Perspective 2 for few months.I bought/sold 5 speakers in last 1.5 year - Daedalus Athena V2, PAP Horn1, Wilson Sabrina, Harbeth 30.2 and JA Perspective 2. Except Sabrina, I was happy with all the other speakers. Sa... 
Which Harbeth would work in my room?
Harbeth speakers are truly wonderful. One of those rare cases where the hype is justified. However, from my own experience of owning the 30.2 - they need more breathing space than the size would suggest even comparing to other equivalent speakers.... 
Considering Moving to an Integrated, Opinions Appreciated
I went through many system changes in past couple of years (including 4 speakers) and one thing that remained constant is Lyngdorf TDAI 2170. It's an unbelievable value. When I replaced my ~15k separates (tube amp and preamp), with Lyngdorf I thou... 
New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2
I had spent considerable time auditioning the Devore Super 9 (IMO better sounding than Orangutan). Devore speakers are great esp with how they handle midrange and human voice, sort of like Harbeth kind of way. However, Devore is not a speaker for ... 
New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2
I went to CAF and RMAF this year. Both me and my girlfriend (she has better ears than many audiophiles I know including me), thought Joseph Audio Pearl was the best sounding room in RMAF and the Perspective 2 was top 3 in CAF.I was so damn impress...
