| RMAF 2019! How was the sound in the rooms in general? The last few years at the Marriott, it was pretty bad. I've read many posts here and other places that registration was a nightmare, huge place with rooms a good distance apart, bad sound, etc.. Would yo... | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl uberwaltz-like I mentioned, I've had 2 very good r2r decks in the last few years and I have recorded digital music to them. The Otari has very good specs and sounded very good but wasn't any better than straight out of a dac. I bought the r2r to r... | |
| Possible new integrated amp for my new Focal Kanta's With focal speakers except for the utopia models, I would go with tubes because these speakers are cool sounding, no lower end. | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl Mijostyn-here is your statement: All my optical discs have been transferred to the hard drive. I took them all to Bull Moose Music and traded them in for....Records! $1500.00 worth. you copied all of your discs to a hard drive then sold them. This... | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl Mijostyn-you did an illegal thing and you’re bragging about it online? No different than a bank robber bragging about his heist on Facebook.Lalitk- some of the worst sounding albums are from many decades ago too. Most of the remastered material I ... | |
| Integrated amp Depends on what Hegel amps you are using. The later Hegel’s (H300 or more current H360 or later) are very good with good power reserves for demanding speakers. | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl I think I’ve had a dozen different turntables in my past and have an album collection of 40 years. I just sold my Hanss T-60 tt and everything associated with it except for my albums, which I’m selling now. Just because you buy an album doesn’t me... | |
| Alternatives Software for iTunes on Mac Audirvana has sounded superior to iTunes for years, especially when it started reading the music instead of having iTunes do it. ITunes for the car and maybe during a flight is ok. Try doing anything hires/dsd/mqa thru iTunes, you can’t. ‘I got ri... | |
| VPI Uni-Pivit Tone Arms I’ve had a few vpi unipivot arms with the last 1 being the 10” 3D arm. They had the funky way of doing antiskating but the newer arms actually come with antiskate setup. The ears are used for balancing the horizontal stance of the arm or just move... | |
| A moderate priced dac If you want a dac that would compete with dacs under $10k for features and sound, look at the ps audio DS jr. what other dac is fpga based, has Ethernet built in, is a Roon endpoint, can hook up directly to an amp (does sound better thru a preamp ... | |
| Is integrated the future for 2 channel audiophiles? Been there done that many times over the last 40+ years. I’ve always went back to separates. Integrated amps have been getting better but you also have many limitations with them. Lately for me it’s been the power. I was happy with my Hegel H300 u... | |
| Fedex issues Gdnrbob-the email from the vendor did show my correct address where they were going to ship it to so I thought i would get it until fedex informed me that it was delivered, and it wasn’t to me. The shipping guy who actually created the label used ... | |
| How To Proceed With Room Treatments Not everything has to be a trap. You want a mix of absorbing as well as diffusion. Every room has areas where bass is a problem (corners for example). Then you have 1st reflection points and this could be the sidewalls, ceiling and floor.GIK and A... | |
| PS Audio Revises Marketing to a Direct Sales Only Model Get the bhk 250 over the parasound, I did 10 months ago. But only your ears will tell you which 1 is better. | |
| Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection? I just sold my TT and all related accessories last night. I had the Hanss T60 which weighed 150lbs so the guy drove 8 hours 1 way to pick it up. Very nice tt and very nice sounding setup. I just never used it. I have the new $150 Led Zeppelin boxe... |
