Preamps Was it the same process with GIK as it was vicoustics? Did you just send them a video of your room? | |
Chord Dave dguitarnut,I have a Gryphon Diablo 300 with a Chord Dave and prefer the Dave without the m-scaler. To my ears the sound was very smooth, but I missed the dynamics as well. Similar to your experience. I’m sure many out there will love the rela... | |
Preamps Another Ayre KX-R recommendation. They are more than your target price, but you can sometimes find them on audiogon for sale. | |
Bryston 4B3 vs Mac MC462 vs Pass Labs X250.8, OR... GRYPHON Diablo 300? Congrats nyev! I’ll be interested to hear how the Valhalla 2 works out for you. | |
Nordost Valhalla 2 Power Cord Worth It? Over Audioquest Hurricane? I agree. 15 years ago if someone would have told me that a power cord makes a system sound different, I would have told them they were crazy. I’m a believer now though.I never tell my friends what I spend on audio equipment or cables. They woul... | |
Nordost Valhalla 2 Power Cord Worth It? Over Audioquest Hurricane? nyev, Lol...good question. I did not hear much difference--the low end seemed to be more robust. However, unfortunately, I am one of those crazy audiophiles, that has an issue with spending $16k on a component and then have a $40 power cord st... | |
Nordost Valhalla 2 Power Cord Worth It? Over Audioquest Hurricane? Hi Nyev,I have a Diablo 300 and tried multiple different power cords on it(ended up using a Hurricane). Honestly I heard minimal if any difference between any of them.For my source components, in particular my chord Dave, I found some pretty majo... | |
Shunyata Sigma Speaker Cables and Interconnects Thanks Medwardo! I think I may take the plunge. You are right. Very expensive. | |
What area or country do you live in ? Houston, Texas | |
USB vs SPDIF, which sounds better? I agree with Eric_squires. I would try them both as well as the AES/EBU if you can.I have an Aurender N10 feeding a Chord Dave and personally prefer the SPDIF connection over the USB. I found it to have a sweeter highs with a larger sound stage... | |
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor The Bryston SP4 looks interesting. I noticed in one of the pictures it says that it’s,”Made in France”. I believe Bryston is a Canadian company. I wonder if they have someone building it for them? | |
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor btw22I haven't had a chance to respond, but honestly I think that caphill summarized it perfectly; especially," Even when used for surround sound movies or HT the SSP 800 has more body and volume and is more balanced tonally than the Lyngdorf IMO... | |
Upgrade from Classe SSP 800 processor Hey Caphill, Yes, broken in, and sounds fantastic. I love it! | |
Triode wire or audio quest FYI...I just heard from my Audioquest dealer today that Audioquest is going to have a 10% price increase on feb 1st due to the tariffs.I own and use both in my system. I personally think that the TWL digital cables are really something special. | |
Gryphon Diablo 300 I use a Hurricane with my Diablo 300 and it works great! Give it some time to break in, though.i can’t speak to the Sabrina, but I would think it would really well know the sonic signature of the 300 and listening to the Sabrina’s a couple of ti... |
