| Jeff Rowland Aeris or Bricasti M1? Although an older thread, I thought I would bring it back to life. I had the M1 DAC and recently replaced it with the Aeris DAC. I submit both are great DACs and the other components in your system will determine what DAC works best for you. I hav... | |
| Dynaudio c4 signature & c4 platinum difference I'm interested in the C4s and thought I would hear them at RMAF, but they weren't in any of the rooms. It seems like the signature is the better value? | |
| Anyone Attend RMAF? This was my first show. I was there on Friday and Saturday. The poor selection of music is what really stood out to me. The most musical rooms to my ears were the PS Audio and Jeff Rowland systems with YG Acoustic speakers. They were detailed, had... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD The Rowland and I believe it was the PS Audio room. I looked at the pictures I took and I'm sure it was the PS Audio room. Both rooms sound natural/musical to my ears. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD The Schweikert VR-55 and YG Acoustics were my favorite speakers at the show. | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal What a difference a day makes...went back to the Focal Sopra 2 room and they sounded like different speakers...thin, forward sounding. I didn't ask what was playing, but I know the source was analog. As a matter a fact a woman told the representat... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal I listened to the Sopra 2s today at RMAF. To my ears they represent one of the better values, if not the best value of speakers that I listened to today. No, I'm not willing to sell my Aerial 7Ts for them, but I do submit they sound very good. | |
| How good REALLY is the Peachtree Grand Integrated? In my system it wasn't a giant killer. To my ears it doesn't come close to the Jeff Rowland Continuum S2. I submit the Peachtree 220se is a better value. I actually preferred the sound of the 220se over the Grand Integrated. You should be able to ... | |
| 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... |
