| Looking for a great cassette deck I own the Tascam 122 mk3, Teac V-8030s, Sony KA-3ES, Pioneer CT-43, a couple of Nak DR-10s and a vintage Pioneer from the early 80's. My opinion is if you are transferring to digital the Tascam may be the best and most uncolored of all. Of course... | |
| Not selling Cardas cables online again, just wanted to share..... @rapogee Were you able to leave feedback for the other user so people are aware of the transaction? | |
| Lumin Streamers Anything is possible with electronics but my original Lumin A1 is still going strong 9 years later. I got an X1 a couple of years ago and even tried the X1 power supply on the A1. Needless to say the stock A1 is the player that's still around. L... | |
| Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp @jumia I use and like these Hubbell 5362 outlets. Very natural midrange to my ears. I would like to hear the Shunyata Copperconn which is available through dealers but are very expensive at $300 or more per duplex. https://www.takefiveaudio.co... | |
| Acrolink 8N-PC8100 Power Cable I have the 8100 and 9700 as well but in my systems I found the 9700 warmer than the 8100. I actually found the 8100 cool/very neutral though I'd agree with your descriptives of how it presents the various frequencies. They're both two of my favori... | |
| Luxman Knockoffs or Counterfeits? @audiojerry I've noticed the eBay listings from different sellers with the same items and pictures with different prices. My suspicion has always been that these are used items for sale in a Japanese shop and the various sellers are trying to m... | |
| BS Node 2i: WiFi or Ethernet..? @andyusa11 I thought coax sounded better than optical when I connected my Node to my DAC. Optical was thinner sounding. I was surprised by the difference. As it turned out, different coax cables also altered tone in my system whereas optical w... | |
| Blu-Spec vs. SACD, ? Blu-Spec is NOT a format. It's standard redbook compact disc on a disc of supposed better quality and data writing with more manufacturing precision. It plays on any player that plays compact discs. SACD is a high resolution format that requires ... | |
| Perlisten S7t speakers at Axpona I heard them at a local dealer's and was underwhelmed. I had recently read the Stereophile review that described a healthy bass quantity but when I went to listen to them there was an obvious paucity of low end from the Perlisten S7t. I wondered... | |
| "World's Best Cables" vs Audioquest interconnects This is only semi-related to this topic, but I've compared "World's Best Cables" guitar cables to stock offerings from Mogami and another similar priced brand (house brand for Guitar Center and Musician's Friend) and they don't sound as good. I do... | |
| Luxman D03X vs D10X I have the Luxman D10x and it’s the best digital playback I’ve ever heard. It’s natural, neutral, and detailed like I’ve never heard from a source before. Directly against the Marantz SA-10 and the Lumin X1 it’s better sounding in those categorie... | |
| Fiber Optic Internet...best way to connect to system The simplest things to try at wildly varying prices: The Etherregen (basically a switch) is advertised as being useful in between the gateway and the node but they are unavailable as of this month while they develop a new version with more readil... | |
| Cable question The answer to the question is like most things with audio - it depends on the gear that's sending and receiving the data. Whenever I have the option, I try both. I don't think I've ever never not preferred coaxial to optical in a comparison. My B... | |
| Hifi Rose RA180 Wow! The cosmetic design of the face is as far from the hi def screen of their streamer as you can get. It's part Swiss watch, maybe Nagra inspiration and laboratory equipment all in one | |
| Furutech vs Audioquest Power Cables @steakster There’s the Nanoflux and a Nanoflux NCF. If you’re asking about the regular Nanoflux, it’s a powerful, full sounding cable, that can give you the impression that you are adding a lower octave to your gear. It’s a fun sounding cable b... |
