| Infigo Audio Cables To add to ricred1 comments…. I really feel I’ve got my system dialed in the way I like it so I really wasn’t looking to change anything at the moment - You can see my system posted in the virtual systems. I’ve tried a lot of cables and many had ... | |
| Playback Edelweiss in the house sm121055, What did you think of the Dream DAC? Thanks | |
| DAVE w/ or w/out M Scaler? Wellschlager, For me I didn’t find that it aucked the life out of the room but I did find that the music just sounded off and unnatural. Hard to put my finger on it. I really tried to like it too since I had bought the m-scaler new. At the e... | |
| Aurender N20 I moved from the N10 to the N20 and couldn’t be happier. IMO a big upgrade-better dynamics and quieter background. I also switched back and forth between the usb, BNC, and AES multiple times. At the end of the day the BNC and AES were almost i... | |
| Playback Edelweiss in the house Verdantaudio, Thanks for the update and look forward to hearing your thoughts. | |
| Lyngdorf MP-50 Alternative Yeah I’d go with a good pre with HT bypass if funds permit. I don’t think you will regret it. Good luck! | |
| Lyngdorf MP-50 Alternative I have the MP50 and as a pre it’s not bad. The Octave HP700 has more soundstage depth, detail and a lower noice floor. However once I add in my chord Dave and compare that to the MP50 with its internal DAC there is no comparison. The Octave/D... | |
| Lyngdorf MP-50 Alternative The lyngdorf is certainly no slouch, but I find the octave to be more transparent and have better soundstage depth. Octave is a bit more neutral sounding than some tube pre and amps but it is a bit warmer than the Lyngdorf as well. | |
| Lyngdorf MP-50 Alternative Couldn’t agree more with audiom3. I have a Lyngdorf MP50 that I use in conjunction with an octave audio pre with HT bypass and octave monoblocs. Then I use Krall TAS 5 channel for the center and surrounds. Lyngdorf for the movies/Xbox and oc... | |
| Recommended Power Amps For Focal Sopra 2 Towers. $10K Budget. GO I owned the Sopra 3s and absolutely loved them with the Octave v80se integrated with the super black box. Matched well with the focal beryllium tweeter. | |
| Is AES/EBU or SPDIF connection preferred by Aurender N10, N20 owners? I have an Aurender N20 connected to a Chord Dave and have a WIreworld Platinum 8 AES/EBU and SPDIF BNC(1.5 meters on both)as well as Wireworlds newest USB cable(2 meter). Honestly I find the AES/EBU and the BNC to be incredibly close sonically. ... | |
| Puritan PMS 156 vs. Audioquest Niagara 3000 I agree with twoleftears. I’d try and get a home trial as systems are so different. In my system I tried the Niagara 5000 and the PSM156 and I preferred the Niagara. The PSM made things too bright. I ended up with a stromtank 1000 whic... | |
| Black Blackground for Monoblocks I have the super black box on both of the amps, but still hear a reduction in dynamics when plugged in the Stromtank. I'd love to upgrade to a S2500 or even a larger Stromtank, but don't have the room or the funds at the moment. Definitely on ... | |
| Black Blackground for Monoblocks I’m a bit pressed for space, but I do like that idea! Thanks | |
| Audio Research VSi75 - End of Tube Life? KT120 vs KT150? Funny…today I’ve been comparing the KT120 to KT150 tubes in Octave MRE220s. Overall I heard the exact same thing you described other than the bleached sound on the 150s. I’d call it more neutral sounding. Definitely not as warm as the 120s. In... |
