| Amplifiers in use with big Harbeths (Mon 40 series) that work very well Tried Luxman 590AXII, Hegel 390 and Line Magnetic 805ia with 30.1’s and HL5’s. Prefer the LM by a large margin. Holographic sound that the other SS amps do not offer. I’m a fan of high powered tubes!-Alex | |
| Critical Mass Systems Footers - New - CS2M Love them on my DAC! On my amp I felt the Townshend pods performed just as well for less $$-Alex | |
| Any Modwright CXN v2 owners who want to share their experience? I had a chance to borrow my friend's unit to listen in my system and was blown away. Didn't hear it prior to the mod but it's definitely the most organic, full sounding digital front end I've heard. Will probably be my next upgrade piece....-Alex | |
| PD-Creative @wlutke Thanks for sharing. It looks like you compared the modded versions of the node 2i and new node. Is it worth moving up to the newest node even if I have the modded 2i?-Alex | |
| Takayuki 300B vs Western Electric NEW Production 300B @lsmith42 Looking forward to your comparison.-Alex | |
| PD-Creative I've had Pawel's board on my Node 2i and it's a major improvement especially when paired with a good linear power supply. For the price and ease of installation it's a no brainer for Bluesound owners.-Alex | |
| Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts? I’ve owned Elrog 300B’s and TBH I feel they are overrated. Was disappointed during my ownership and felt the tubes were on the lean sounding side. I contacted Thomas Mayer and his response was they are lower gain 300B’s.-Alex | |
| Help selecting a power cord. AQ Storm series power cords. Buy the best you can afford and start with the amp or DAC. But it should improve every component.-Alex | |

| Contact -enhancer, fuses - NOS 1260 High fidelity audio cables Update: Ok guys this stuff works. The first day I thought it was a scam after initial application I was hugely disappointed. Today on my second listen everything opened up with a massive soundstage, improved dynamics, and 3D like presentation. Not... | |
| Contact -enhancer, fuses - NOS 1260 High fidelity audio cables Just applied to my entire system: power cords, speaker cables, IC's, Digital cables, fuses, etc. Can't say I'm blown away, in fact hard to detect much of a difference. I'll report back after a few weeks.-Alex | |
| Favorite cable brand. +1 Inakustik | |
| Recommendations on Integrated Tube Amp around $5k +1 LM 805ia | |
| Contact -enhancer, fuses - NOS 1260 High fidelity audio cables I just ordered a half bottle. Will report my findings when it arrives.-Alex | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... @calgarian5355 I currently have the Gigafoil V4 and the ENO Ag between my router and streamer. I had the EtherRegen at one point but felt the Gigafoil was just as good so I sold it. As far as Ethernet cables they can make a big difference but ulti... |
