MoFi lawsuit
Curious if anyone has stopped buying anything MoFi sells based on their deceptive practice?  
New blog post: Living with Focal Speakers
@erik_squires curious if the newer Focal's have that same edge I've heard from the tweeters as the older models you had back in the day? At a friend's we have tried firing them straight out and then toeing them in 1/2 " at a time but still found t... 
Optimum speaker support
@antigrunge2 can you supply a link to the exact product you bought?  
Looking for intermediate-step Streamer: better than BS Node and not @ Bartok level pricing
Another vote for a used Bricasti M3 with streamer. They are upgradable over the years so you can feel comfortable having the latest experience.  
New computer for Streaming????
OP great choice! Did you get the latest MKII M1SE? I believe it is well worth the asking price or maybe you bought a used unit? Hopefully it's the latest version. Enjoy 😉  
DS Audio Ionizer for analog Playback
Awhile back I sold my Furutech ionizer brush and bought the CS Port static Eliminator and couldn't be happier. Yes a bit expensive but it works and nothing to do other than push a button before playing a record and after an evening of listening th... 
Sopra No 2's or other alternatives?
Just wanted to say thanks for all the suggestions. I'll be going in a week to listen again to JA Perspectives2. I've heard them many months ago and enjoyed them I should have bought some demos that were on several sites.  
Something Fishy with Brian Hoyer
OP hadn't you seen all the negative comments about him on these pages? Its been well documented.  
Bricasti M3 vrs Meitner MA3
OP you should have your dealer walk you thru all your options, that's what you are paying for! Also from what I've been told by not only my Bricasti dealer but by Bricasti themselves is that the Ethernet option is superior sonically to the USB opt... 
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound?
That Luxury HiFi stuff is the equivalent of a HiFi Rolex and IMHO a waste of money.  Yes it is but IMO not a waste of $$ if you have the means and makes one happy. I'd love to own/buy Boulder gear but I'm just a poor working soul that has to su... 
CD Transport
Since you already own the Bricasti dac just curious why not their new transport?  
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound?
When I'm at a concert I don't hear precise locations of each instrument but can tell their decay easily. In a home system I'm trying to get all the small details as I can that to me makes listening more enjoyable. So I'd take hyper detail but not ... 
Bricasti M1SE DAC vrs Meitner MA3
OP is the Bricasti M1SE the newest mkII version?  
Bricasti M3 vrs Meitner MA3
I think both units are world-class. The Meitner MA3 I believe is $10,500 with streamer while the Bricasti M3 is $7000 with streamer. I've owned the Bricasti and couldn't be happier myself. It's clean, detailed and never etched sounding but has all...
