| Weakest link I listened to a system in excess of 500K and enjoyed it. Never once did I feel pity or anything else. Everyone is different. If someone has the financial means to purchase a million dollar system, house, or car who am I to judge anyone. | |
| Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000 I simply changed from using an Audioquest Niagara 1000 and Torus RM15 to the Torus RM20. Not a night and day difference, but significant. I don't know why, but I'm happy with the results. | |
| Weakest link Kenny,That's my point when I say we don't know what we don't know. One, we must have an open mind to try different things to listen to and let our ears determine if there is an improvement worthy of the cost. Two, we need access to different equip... | |
| Weakest link We don’t know, what we don’t know. I think my system sounds good. I have decent components, but I thought my system would benefit from having one power conditioner. I sold my Torus RM-15 and Audioquest Niagara 1000. I purchased a Torus RM-20 and c... | |
| Antipodes DS GT versus Bryston BDP2 I compared the DS GT directly to the DX in my system. I prefer the DS GT. I wouldn't be surprised if Antipodes came out with a new DX with an external power supply soon. | |
| Audioquest Niagara 5000 In my system, going from the Torus RM-15 to the RM-20 is so obviously more detailed that anyone can hear it. Now, to be honest I added the RM-20 and a Shunyata Research SR-Z1 AC Outlet simultaneously. I don't know if it's the combination of both o... | |
| Audioquest Niagara 5000 Thanks. I already pulled the trigger on a Torus RM-20. | |
| What is your speaker ownership history since 1995? Prof,Life circumstances made me change some speakers(divorce, moving to a bigger or smaller house, living/family room versus dedicated listening room, and yes sometimes because of the desire to improve on what I had contributed to why I sold some ... | |

| Focal Sopra 2 vs Sopra 3? djmika, You're a dealer so in my opinion your last paragraph should have been your first. I've listened to the Sopra 2's several times and just don't prefer their sound. | |
| USB Cable: Oyaide, Cardas, Shunyata.... I have Wireworld Platinum. I'm curious about trying the Curious USB cable. Has anyone compared them to each other? | |
| Audio Physic Virgo I (or Virgo II): still considered a very good or great speaker? I've owned Virgo IIIs years ago. All Virgo's are very good with imaging and presenting a decent soundstage. | |
| $35K to spend, how will you build a system? Buy used or demo to make your dollar stretch farther. I would start with speakers. I would spend 10-15K on speakers. | |
| Lesser known 2 way bookshelf Speakers from the 80's More recent than the 80s or 90s are the Artemis EOS. I really loved them when I had them. | |
| $10K-15K short list? milpai,I understand that the OP stated a budget between 10K-15K. I also understand that this is a pointless exercise if we a recommending speakers with out knowing the room's dimensions. I've owned several speakers over the years. One thing I've l... |
