| Does Aether Audio still exist? Here is hoping that all of you who are owed speakers will be able to get them and will enjoy them for many years to come. I grabbed a used pair or Revelations, and wow, the speakers sound stunningly good even in a less than ideal room. | |
| Is DEQX a game changer? Will work on more detailed impressions, and getting a mic stand. With this weather and snow, no hope of getting speakers outside. Haven't reached out to Drewan77 or Larry until I get better sorted out over here. Just haven't had much time to do th... | |
| I Think I Will Build nCore Amps Ooohh, very interesting. Doug, an audio buddy here in Chicago has an ncore that he'd likely be happy to bring up for you to hear in your system. Drop me a line if you're interested. Good guy who would get a kick out of hearing your setup. | |
| Is DEQX a game changer? Oh, that DEQX is a beautiful mistress. Was just gobsmacked by how much I was hearing in an Iron and Wine LP I thought I knew so well. And this still with just the set-up wizards. Did add some GIK panels behind my listening position, and toe'd the ... | |
| Musical Fidelity KW500 and Rowland Continuum S2 It is also worth pointing out that Musical Fidelity makes products along a broad range of price points. So when someone is not a fan of Musical Fidelity, it may be that they are referring to their lower priced, lower quality items. Top-of-the-line... | |
| Musical Fidelity KW500 and Rowland Continuum S2 Haven't heard the kW500, but love my kW linestage and phono preamps. Great pieces. That kW preamp had been the longest lasting piece of gear in my system until it and my Yamamoto DAC were recently replaced by a DEQX HDP4. It will be sad to sell th... | |
| Lampizator question It seems that many folks selling these DACs are selling in order to move up to a higher model in the Lampi line. Quite a devoted following for these DACs out there. | |
| Shunyata vs. Audience vs. Bybee? Again, all these recs for devices are missing what is the most important point in power conditioning: the specific context of the system (and perhaps most immportantly local power grid). Though I will note that the appropriateness of power conditi... | |
| What speakers for 10k? Bam214, I heard them at both AXPONA and RMAF. Floored me in a way that previous Salk designs did not. Some real magic there. | |
| Shunyata vs. Audience vs. Bybee? Power conditioning seems very system dependent. I'd try to find these at places with good audition or return policies. Music Direct, Cable Company and Tweek Geek all come to mind. | |
| What speakers for 10k? Based on what I have heard in person (in homes and audio shows), I'd put those Exotica 3s on a short list as well. They and Vapor offer extremely good sound for the money. | |
| Is DEQX a game changer? I think that 3 hrs is a totally reasonable amount of time. Though I will say that the learning curve here gets a bit steep once you move past the basic setup via the setup Wizards. Powerful device. | |
| Is DEQX a game changer? I'll try to get some other impressions up here soon. But first I want to tweak my room a bit and re-run the room correction. | |
| Is DEQX a game changer? DEQX is here! Did an initial set-up quickly using the DEQX wizards. But will probably tweak a bit today. Some of the measurements suggest I might need to get some room treatments behind my listening position, and might benefit from some different ... | |
| Genesis Time Lens Though it may be that the Genesis Lens offers improvements due to its jitter reduction and other features. Not sure how it compares to more recent options for providing the best possible digital signal. |
