| How close are you to being to your endgame? My system outline and I'm almost there. My system is posted on Audiogon. The only component I'm interested in replacing is my Chord Dave DAC. | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cable All systems are different. Nordost Valhalla 2 power cords , nor speaker cables sound good in my system. There's something about their cables that literally hurts my wife's ears and gives me listening fatigue. That being said, you may love them in ... | |
| Why so many AQ Hurricane PC's for sale? No sir, I still use Vortex power cords. I recently compared them to Nordost Valhalla 2 power cords and prefer the Vortex in my system. Again, cables are very system dependent and you may prefer a different power cord in your system. | |
| Why so many AQ Hurricane PC's for sale? Cables are very system dependent. I sold my hurricane's after comparing them directly to Clarity Audio Vortex power cords. The Vortex's are more open and detailed compared to the hurricane's in my system. I didn't realize how dark the hurricane's ... | |
| SDV 3100 HV owners I don't know how much you want to spend. For what it's worth. I use Jeff Rowland 735 mono-amps with the Jeff Rowland Corus preamp to drive my Monitor Audio PL500 ii speakers. I've heard several combinations with my speakers and prefer Rowland. Unl... | |
| whatsbestforum - what's going on I actually like whatsbestforum. I've been a member there for several years. Personally, I read Audiogon and Whatsbestforum for entertainment. I have learned to take everything I read on audio forums with a huge grain of salt. | |
| Looking for new speaker cables Try to get a home audition for Clarus Crimson Speaker cables. | |
| Boulder 866 / Rotel Michi M8 In my system the M8's lacked detail and dimensionality. They reminded me of PS Audio BHK 300s. | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers I’m not saying there are night and day differences between streamers or any components. In my experience, easily discernable differences are hard to ignore. In my opinion, high-end audio is about hearing small differences, that so may of us are wi... | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers You must be directing your comments to someone else. I’ve never said Antipodes was better than any other music server. I always use " preferred" when I compare components. I never used the words "more accurate" either. I’ve never sad anything that... | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers mdalton, Again, value is determined by every individual. If you don't think you need to spend "x" amount for a streamer/server, it's pretty simple...don't. I never said, that you or anyone had to spend a certain amount of money to get to a certa... | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers mdalton, Value is determined by the individual. One can argue that spending X amount for any component is dumb. I say, spend whatever you can easily afford to yield the sound you want! | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers verdantaudio, I'm not a dealer, just an end-user. I've owned several Antipodes Audio music servers. I've compared Antipodes to other music servers and have preferred Antipodes to Aurender, Innuos, and several others. I have the Oladra now and it'... | |
| Antipodes Audio - K22 G4 To my ears, in my system, the Antipodes is fast, dynamic, and musical. It's detailed without a hint of harshness. | |
| Antipodes Audio - K22 G4 I don’t like to recommend any component without listening to it in your system...there are just too many variables. I use a Chord Dave with the Antipodes Oladra Music server. I used a K41/K21 combination prior to Oladra. In my system, I prefer Ant... |
