| BlueSound Stinks(!), anyone? Has anyone been able to stream Amazon HD "bitperfect" ? I'd like to buy one only for this purpose. My idea is :connect the node 2 to my networkvia my DLNA/Ethernet, be able to get my PS Audio DSSr DAC (no network card BTW) to show the actual Amazo... | |
| The NAD M33 will cancel your complaints about Class D I was running PS Audio M700's (L,C,R) and a S300 (surrounds). I loved their sound. Had to trade them in for a BAT VK50-SE Preamp because my requirements changed. Also used the Orchard Audio STARKRIMSON Amps that had had even better sound than the ... | |
| High end Class D amps? Class D for Bass is the Best. For Upper Bass/Midrange/Treble. I run Orchard Audio STARKRIMSON Amplifers for those sections and an ICE Power AS-1000 Class D Amp for the Bass Drivers (one inside each KEF 105/3 cabinet). All fed from a BAT VK-50SE. T... | |
| Analog vs digital? I’m a Digital Man versus being an Analog Kid. But I’ve never had a Vinyl setup as resolving as yours. My Digital rig consists of a PS Audio DirectStream DAC fed into a BAT VK50-SE Preamp. It’s as close to Vinyl as I’ll ever get. I sold all my Viny... | |
| Connecting a DAC directly to an amp? I used to run my PS Audio DirectStream directly into my PS Audio M700's and it worked great. I've since then traded in my Stellar Amplifiers for a Balance Audio Technology VK50-SE feeding two Orchard Audio STARKRIMSON Amplifiers and two ICE Power ... | |
| Looking for a vinylesk sounding DAC 11-11-2020 8:26pmJust going on the many reviews other impressions I’ve read, if I were you I’d gravitate toward a tubed R2R NOS DAC such as the Audio Mirror Tubadour Mklll SE, etc. I believe several companies (AM, MHDT, Denafrips?) offer trial p... | |
| Unbelievable 3-D imaging sound 11-10-2020 8:20pm I’m not your standard guy. If I tweak a particular instrument to what I like, or make a recording that I favor more, then I’m satisfied. It’s really all about me at this point. I’m usually the one listening to it most of the tim... | |
| RIP Eddie Van Halen. What was your first stereo you rocked to VH on? 1982 Diver Down Cassette on my Candle "4 Speaker" "Ghetto Blaster".If you look at how many "hits" they had between both Sam & Dave (couldn't help myself there), it's quite the catalog. Never saw them live or Tom Petty (regret it now of course). | |
| BAT VK-5SE vs 50SE I just bought a VK-5SE used mint condition from The Music Room (display is dim but can be replaced from BAT). I love it. Best Preamp I've ever had. Incredibly flexible and the sound is luscious.It feeds an Orchard Audio Amplifier modules @ 300W/4Ω... | |
| Bose 901 Series 1 & 2 versus KEF 104/2's and 105/3's To the 901 Haters (you've obviously seen the New Record Day & Thomas & Stereo Video's), you obviously haven't heard a pair of the Series 1 or 2 Bose 901's (their best IMHO) setup properly with a Custom miniDSP curve dialed in for the room.... | |
| Bose 901 Series 1 & 2 versus KEF 104/2's and 105/3's Just wanted to get some opinions/idea's from other KEF and 901 owners. I am having a lot of fun with them.Those are great stories oldhvymec.Cheers | |

| Youngsters these days. Please Thank Your Grandson for His Service. My Son is in The Army Reserves. I just turned 50 last year but sold all my Vinyl 3 years earlier but transferred them all to 96/24 PCM files/DVD-Audio Discs. I don't miss the care and feeding that Vinyl ... |
