@janehamble (Jeremy)What’s your problem?I don’t understand your responses here on audiogon. You make accusations without any proof and see no benefit to your comments.I actually made 2 purchases based on teajay’s reviews since we share the same ta... 
Non Analytical Sounding DAC Upgrade- Budget $1,500 or less
My MHDT Orchid was recently modded by Grannyring (Bill) and all I can say is wow. The sound is cleaner and clearer without sounding glaring. The soundstage is larger and more holographic. Right now I’m listening to Jessica Williams Live at Yoshi’s...

Best integrated tube amplifier, under $3,000.00. No phono needed. Could be used, too.d
I would also recommend contacting John Rutan at audio connection. I recently purchased the newer Rogue Cronus Magnum III from him with KT77 tubes instead of the standard KT120. I prefer the sound of the KT77s which is warmer and has a beautiful mi... 
Synergistic Research Black Box -
@ozzy Since you own both types of FEQ, is the X4 a sonic improvement over the original?

Who remembers audio from the time when ...
It was 1969, my older brother was in Vietnam and I would use his portable Zenith record player which he received for HS graduation. The turntable would fold down and the speakers were on hinges to spread them apart to listen to stereo. Wow it was ...

Worth pursuing analog sound from digital?
Pick up a MHDT Orchid R2R Dac for $1100 from LTA. It sounds great and is better than my previous PS Audio Direct Stream Dac which lists for $5k. It comes with 4 different digital inputs plus it has a tube stage. Buy a NOS WE2C51 or WE296A tube for... 
Why a separate DAC?

To Equi-Core or Not to Equi-Core? That is the question!
I own the 1800 for a few years without any problems plus it sounded better than my previous PS Audio P3. It’s a bargain for his asking price.
