| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC This is so good. Everyone is talking and everyone is listening to each other. So great. Yes, Angie is the one and I am in Canada. I will say hi when I see her next time. At the moment, I have Crystal Cables but they might not be enough for the JR ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Guido, wow, that is amazing. Okay. I have a list now. I see you like the Jeff Rowland equipment. So do I. Mapman asked if there was one if there were any systems I would not be happy with from among the ones I have heard. To be honest, this is a g... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I hear you (no pun intended, LOL). At first I will probably be a bit nervous about tubes, but I am sure I will get the hang of it, if I go that route. I wonder, what cables do you use with the Phi 200? Also, I will listen to the musical suggestion... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC What are break-in test tones? Are you saying after the first 1500 hours if its the JR? Cuz I can't wait that long!!!!! | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I am so fortunate to hear from all of you. Really. I mean that seriously. Not only are you all so knowledgeable, you are also giving and helpful....and funny (see jon2020). Okay, so maybe I am in denial. But I hear that cables are important! No? A... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello, I just contacted a LAMM dealer and the M1.2 monoblocks sell for $27,190 USD. So, given that — as much as I am sure they sound gorgeous, it is out of my budget. I appreciate the help, but I really can't afford that right now. But, as you can... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Your sober advice resonates! I was started to see who carries Lamm and Kharma! Not the same dealer. Not even in the same province. Okay. Stay the course. One step at a time. I am on the right track. Trust my heart and my ears. And when possible as... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thank you all again and again for your honesty and your sage advice. Sorry for the lengthy response, but maybe this will help. First, I don't really see myself as an audiophile or view this adventure as a hobby. Believe it or not, I just want to b... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I hear you. Thanks for the support. I agree. But, my wallet is not deep. So, hopefully I will get it right the first time. I will let you know as soon as I make the plunge, | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC You are adorable. And I can hardly wait to get something. BUT I am still waiting for the VAC 200 iq to come in so I can listen to it. I am finding the wait a bit brutal, but patience is going to pay off down the line. I have decided not to go with... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello everyone. I would love your input on this. Today I went to hear a PS Audio amp (BHK 250) along with either a PS Audio DAC, a Sim Audio 750D DAC/cd transport and at one point we added in a VTL pre-amp. It sounded very good. My question(s) are... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello. Just to update you all -- I went to listen to two new amps this morning: a Hegel integrated (they didn't have the H-30) and a Luxman. As nice as they were, in my mind (and heart) they were not as engaging as the JR and/or VAC integrated. Wh... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I wish it was easier to audition the amps with the speakers. It is an expensive journey and I won't have a lot of time with the pairings. So, let's all hope my ears (and my heart) are open to the music. Thank you again and again. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC So far, it sounds like JR is still winning for combining great sound and ease of use. And perhaps the VAC 200iq is next given its new self-biasing feature, though I have still to hear it. The exciting listening adventure continues!! | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Do you think I should try the ARC reference 150 with the Aeris? Or the Air Tight tube amp? Or am I going in too many directions? |
