| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Bill_k,Thanks. I really love the Bricasti M1, but had an opportunity to pair the Aeris with my Jeff Rowland Continuum S2 and couldn't resist. I'm attending RMAF 2015 next week and hope to find my next speaker. I hope I have an opportunity to liste... | |
| Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC Replaced my Bricasti M1 DAC with the Jeff Rowland Aeris DAC. | |
| Is no preamp really better that a good preamp? I submit the answer depends on the components involved. I had a PS Audio DSD DAC and compared to the Parasound JC2 preamp, I initially preferred the DSD direct. After extended listening I felt I lost dynamics and detail. I sold the DSD and Parasou... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal Mechans,I respect others opinions, but I make decisions with my own ears. "The key is a good tube power amp." If that's the key, I surely won't own Focals. Whatever speakers I purchase must work with my current components. | |
| Enjoying My New Focal Sopra No2's I'm looking into the Sopra's. I talked to a dealer and told him what components I had. I explained my sensitivity to brightness and he told me I would be required to change my speaker cable. I'm going to RMAF and hope to hear them. | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal Bill_k,Interesting observations. I hope to get a chance to hear them at the Rocky Mountain Show...I can't sell my Aerial 7Ts without hearing them. What you described isn't my cup of tea either, but I'll keep an opened mind until I hear them. To my... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal Cdj123,I respect your opinion and if you prefer the 1038s that's great. I submit that each component, including cables impacts the tonality of a good speaker. I've gone through several changes with my Aerial 7Ts. My "system" sounds better than eve... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal Cdj123,I'll just agree to disagree regarding the 1038s compared to Aerial 7Ts. Everyone has a preference and I prefer the 7Ts. I'm going to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest next month and hope to get an opportunity to hear the Sopra 2s. New speakers ... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal I was called yesterday by my dealer telling me I should sell my Aerial 7Ts and purchase the Sopra No. 2s. My concern is Focal tends to be on the bright side of neutral to my ears and I prefer neutral or to error on the slightly dark side of neutra... | |
| External Crossover Bob_reynolds,First and foremost let me say thanks for taking your time to answer my post. My thoughts were an external crossover would provide more adjust-ability; thus making it easier to blend the subwoofer with the main speakers. So yes, my pla... | |
| Class D Amps Cable matter?? I have Wireworld cables with my Class D Integrated amp. I submit they make a difference. | |
| External Crossover Bob_reynolds,I have a Jeff Rowland Continuum S2 and it has 1 pair of balanced and unbalanced outputs. It has 2 pair of balanced and unbalanced inputs, as well as a bypass input. I told HSU what I had, he said he looked it up and adding an external... | |
| External Crossover I talked to HSU today and they told me, "an electronic crossover would be of no benefit to my system due to the fact that I'm using a Integrated amp." | |
| External Crossover Bob and Cerrot,Thanks for the response. I've already called HSU and left them a message. I will follow-up tomorrow. | |
| Preamp/Processor Sorry for the error. It should read: to control his system. |
