| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic For those who haven’t taken the leap ... you should ASAP.Salesmen on commission can be rather pushy to the point of being really obnoxious, especially when the profit margins are huge. | |
| Audio as a weapon Stealth applications: ATC built noise cancelling speakers for the British Navy at least 30 years ago. The device could reduce a ship ‘s engine external noise from the funnel significantly by 20db but required 135 dB at 30Hz. They continue on other... | |
| Mcintosh 452 vs Pass Labs XA 30.5 The Pass is a great power amp but a bit underpowered. So Mcintosh will probably be quite an improvement. Consider a tube preamp. Your speakers suggest you are looking for something musical. Mcintosh are not the last word in resolution but very mus... | |
| Clean Power from Solar Power I suggest some audiophile polarizing filters to clean up the noisy sun light. You simply wear them while listening - the best are the “RayBand” with polarized lenses. ;-)More seriously, if you have in spec power and good components then they shoul... | |
| Fundamentalist Fervor Nothing fundamentalist about a skeptic. Skeptics simply challenge ridiculous claims that make no sense at all. When unscrupulous sellers charge 100x markups for miraculous tweaks that cannot possibly make a difference then warnings from skeptics a... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic +1 @amg56 I agree these are blatantly commercial threads by Oregonpapa and the manufacturer. The claims are totally outrageous and ridiculous. | |
| Please evaluate my system... Speakers. Plenty of good UK speakers to try. Plenty of good amps too! Try EAR Yoshino! At your level, it is more about taste and preference. | |
| Schiit not shipping So you are with No Schiit Sherlock! | |
| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck I recommend Soul Vaccination Live By TOP as their best live album to own. A bit compressed dynamically (the heavy hand of Vlado Meller in Mastering) but very punchy and a great performance by Brent Carter (vocals) with just incredible energy from ... | |
| Running DCS Vivladi DIRECT? @folkfreak Yup - ARC preamps tend to add depth to the Soundstage. I have heard the difference myself on an ARC Ref 6. I think the tubes do it as my Mcintosh tube preamp does the same vs SS. I know there is added harmonics (in minuscule quantity wi... | |
| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck Also Check out ska-jazzhttps://youtu.be/TLZoU417p7Ehttps://youtu.be/CkDX4pwBdf4 | |
| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck +1 that video - I loved LP solo. Nothing better than that except perhaps the same track with Chester Thompson. Chester had a way and timing with the B-3 that used call and response at its best. I bought Back to Oakland back when I was 14 and been ... | |
| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck +1 Dirty Dozen brass band - one of my favourites! | |
| Running DCS Vivladi DIRECT? @charles1dad +1 it doesn’t get much better than this...I bet both sound sublime yet one will be preferred by a listener. | |
| ROON - EQ any good? You should try Roon - I doubt you will ever go back to squeezebox - the interface is excellent. |
