| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche, It's funny how we choose to listen to the advice that suits our needs. I understand what Guido said about the 625 and Aeris DAC, but he doesn't have the 625 S2 with his Aeris DAC...I do. I'll be the first to say, it's only my opinion, i... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Based on my experience I would limit how much I spent on cables and invest in a preamp. No absolutes, this is based on my system: JR 625 S2 amp, JR Aeris DAC, JR Corus preamp, Bryston BDP2, and Monitor Audio PL500's. Besides speakers, adding the C... | |
| How to merge home theater with 2 channel I decided to add an AV receiver and center channel. I will have them next week. Wspohn,I already listed my components in my original post. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche, Sorry, I was confused also. I'm glad you settled on the amp. Take your time putting together your system and enjoy the ride. It took me a very long time to get to this point. What helped me was going to RMAF last year. I'm came away wit... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche,If you had the JR 625 S2 at home and are still considering other amps, I just don't understand? No, it's not my money, everyone hears differently, and has different priorities. If the JR 625 S2 is played within it limits, there aren't too... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC This was the second time I've tried Transparent Audio. When I had Wilson Audio Sashas I tried Transparent cables. "In my system" they didn't sound natural and I purchased a cable by Silver Audio. Some say Wilson's are great with Transparent and fe... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Yes, Transparent Audio Ultra, Shunyata Cobra, and Cardas Clear. Audioquest Wel Signature cables are way more money than I'm willing to spend on cables; therefore I've never auditioned them. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Cables are truly system dependant. I use Wireworld Platinum cables. I have your amp and DAC with the Corus preamp. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche, I'm happy for you. I'm surprised Guido didn't mention the 625 S2 will sound better and better as it has more hours on it. Enjoy! | |
| Wilson Audio Sasha 2 vs Sophia 3 No one but you can decide if the price difference is worth it. I know a guy that decided to keep his Sophia 3s and purchased dual subs in lieu of getting Sashas. To his ears the only difference was bass. To my ears the Sasha’s are more refined, im... | |
| Wilson Audio Sasha 2 vs Sophia 3 I had Sophia 3s and Sashas.. I submit the Sashas do everything better, especially if you have a decent sized room. | |
| How to merge home theater with 2 channel Erik,Thanks for the information. Yes, I currently stream Tidal from my Bryston BDP2. | |
| How to merge home theater with 2 channel Thanks TIC and Soix for your response. I'll install the projector and screen tomorrow. I hope to experiment with your suggestions this weekend and will let you know how it goes. After talking to Oppo technical support, I will run the projector and... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC rinpoche,I which I could say something to reassure that you're going to be happy with Jeff Rowland, but I can't. Components are very personal, so you never know. In my system the 625 S2 is by far the most musical amp I've ever had. After 30 years... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Charles,Thanks. It's okay if our opinions differ. With so many products/ combinations there will never be consensus on what component to get. I submit it's so important to remind individuals that every suggestion should be taken with a grain of sa... |
