| Denafrips Terminator vs other dacs @thyname sorry I thought you were talking about Select dac.For discrete dac wouldn't people necessarily recommend the separate power base? In which case it would be $20k. Without the power base is the discrete dac better than all other options in ... | |
| Denafrips Terminator vs other dacs @thyname, fair enough but its also a $100k dac. Its more than 10x the cash for the dacs we are discussing. | |
| Speakers under $50k that rival $200k+ speakers? @manthik not at all man, I am very happy for you, I am sure they are truly incredible speakers and for that price, amazing... I hope you can write up some impressions | |
| Magico vs Focal (M/Q/S series vs Utopia/Sopra) @mijostyn I heard the M2s today and was ULTRA impressed. Hell of a speaker! S7 was also great.I wonder about the M3 vs Maestro/Stella utopia | |

| Denafrips Terminator vs other dacs @audiotroy thanks going to read more@firstnot Bricasti's can be had used for 5-6k range. Also I do want to know how terminator competes against more pricey dacs. | |

| Speakers under $50k that rival $200k+ speakers? Sorry what are CARs speakers ?The majestic looks nice, sucks they don't have a local dealer but I may try to listen to them if I take a trip. | |
| Speakers under $50k that rival $200k+ speakers? The Persona 7H / 9H midband is excellent. Tonally more forward than B&W 800 / 802D3 in a side-by-side compare, but I would judge different rather than better, but dependent on genre of music. The big B&W's excel in casting a larger sou... | |
