| KEF LS50 Wireless II vs. Harbeth P3esr Hey ghulamr, try swapping the power cables and optionally adding a conditioner. I have a pair of LS50 W2’s and just for s*its and giggles had them hooked up to a Shunyata Denali 6000sV2 and some original Valhalla power cables and they really sound... | |
| MSB vs dCS Bartok Congrats on your choice! Please update us with your impressions once you receive it! | |
| MSB vs dCS Bartok I see what you mean now. I was confused because in your reply it seemed as though you were making it a "con" that the MSB can’t do streaming by itself, yet left out any references to streaming on the dCS (which has the same situation as the MSB). ... | |
| MSB vs dCS Bartok @mikelavigne the MSB Premier, as far as i know, cannot do streaming by itself. but i do believe it can be spec’d with a high quality volume control. you will need a CPU of some sort as a Roon end point. What do you mean here? The Premier takes the... | |
| Octave Audio integrated amplifiers I have a V70 SE with black box using KT88 Gold Lion re-issue power tubes. I run it into Dynaudio Confidence C1 (original mk1). I use a Meitner MA-1 DAC or a modded EAR 834p as source. Speaker cables and XLR interconnects from DAC are both Nordost ... | |
| Powerline Ethernet - Does it affect A/C noise? Funny this thread got revived. At the time I wrote this, I drilled a hole in the wall and put plates and jacks on either side so it looks professional. In late 2011, I added a powerline setup to bridge the network into my bedroom. Both units are o... | |
| Anyone own Nordost TYR or ODIN? Thanks guys. XTI, I bought my Octave used and it was originally shipped with the SED 6550s, which I have. It also came with the Gold Lion KT-88's. My findings between rolling the two are stereotypical of those on the broader internet, i.e. The Gol... | |
| Anyone own Nordost TYR or ODIN? I have a pair of Tyr Balanced IC's and the Tyr Speaker cable. The IC's connect my Electrocompaniet ECD-1 DAC to Octave V70SE Integrated Tube amp. The speakers are Dynaudio Confidence C1. I also have the Brahma power cord connected to the Octave am... | |
| Electrocompaniet ECD-2 dac Bump. Has anyone heard this thing yet? | |
| Electrocompaniet ECD-2 dac I haven't heard it, just "heard of it" like you asked :-) I'm interested in anyone's heard it, also. | |
| Electrocompaniet ECD-2 dac I have heard of it and asked a local dealer. Looks to cost MSRP $3099. I'd love to hear it or see a review, but at the same time, it does not support DSD, which is a feature I'd really like to see implemented. | |
| Transparent or Nordost? No_money, how are you liking your Tyr IC's and SC's? | |
| Nordost Tyr vs Audience Au24e I just upgraded from AZ Satori SC's to Nordost Tyr with the sales going on, couldn't resist. Huge improvement in detail and speed. They are still breaking in, but the detail is there without being lean, just sounds higher quality :-). | |
| New Amp for Dynaudio Contour S 1.4 Speakers I have an Octave V70SE w/black box on my C1's and love the set up. Previously I had a Krell 400xi with Contour S3.4s and then upgraded to C1's. The Krell was a great value and it was good sound but the Octave is much better, as its price dictates. | |
| Merlin VSM MXr vs Thiel 2.4 vs Dynaudio C1 I have had the Dynaudio C1's for the past two and a half years and really love them. Previously I had the Contour S3.4's and enjoyed them very much which was my impetus for upgrading - I wanted more of the same, which I feel I got in the C1's. I d... |
