| Need stand recommendation for Gershman studio IIs 20” stands seem kinda low as the tweeter will likely be below your ear level. These are not aggressive speakers in the highs so I’d think you’d want the tweets more on ear level that would likely require the more common 24” stands. I’d look for so... | |
| Legacy Focus 20/20 Speakers AMP/Pre Amp Thanks for the helpful info. Forgot to ask, what’s your budget? | |
| LTA microZOTL or Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.3? @jc51373 You’re misinterpreting this. None of this is fact, and I’ve no idea which sounds or is designed better or even which I’d pick myself (I happen to love Backert products too), and at this level it could well come down solely to personal ta... | |
| upgrade player or use modified oppo bdp 105 as transport I’m not as patient as you are, and I’d dump the ProJect asap (the writing’s on the wall with that one) and just move on — life’s too short. You could pick up something like this Jay’s Audio CD2 Mk3 for only about $2k and probably get even better ... | |
| LTA microZOTL or Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.3? @jc51373 Well, the power supply is certainly important but definitely not “everything” — the overall circuit design and output stage are also critical, and the LTA uses Berning’s patented circuit design and a relatively rare OTL output stage. So ... | |
| LTA microZOTL or Backert Labs Rhumba Extreme 1.3? Personally I think the Backert is the better design over the LTA, should have sprung for that. @jc51373 Curious why you would say that. Do you know the LTA is a David Berning ZOTL design? David Berning designs/builds some of the most incredi... | |
| Legacy Focus 20/20 Speakers AMP/Pre Amp Really depends on what sound characteristics you’re looking for and are most important to you because the sound of electronics vary greatly. Any info you could provide about your tastes/preferences would be most helpful in making good recommendat... | |
| Herron HL-1 Preamplifier, Solid State; Herron still in business? Thoughts about sound? So I’m gonna go off the reservation a bit here and recommend giving the Linear Tube Audio MZ2 (w/ optional LPS) a look as it’s very neutral and gives you that effortless 3D soundstage that tubes do so well and you usually need to pay dearly for to... | |
| What is going on here? Streamer or DAC? Note the OP mentioned he’s experiencing this with both Wi-Fi and wired configurations. | |
| MHDT Orchid versus MHDT Pagoda..which one is best?...and why? Member Terry London did a review a few years ago where he directly compared the clue, and I believe he found the Pagoda to sound quite a bit better than the Orchid if you run it balanced. You can find the review with a search but was probably in ... | |
| What is going on here? Streamer or DAC? I read a tip from Qobuz that there’s some kinda buffer or something that can be cleared out that can help fix some performance issues so might be worth exploring. Personally I’d use this as an excuse to upgrade to a better separate streamer and D... | |
| Herron HL-1 Preamplifier, Solid State; Herron still in business? Thoughts about sound? What sound characteristics are you looking for, and what pre are you using now? | |
| Subwoofer 101 Needed... Maybe I’m just old school, but I’d start with using the proven “crawl method” first to find the places where the sub will naturally sound best in your room. https://www.audioholics.com/home-theater-connection/crawling-for-bass-subwoofer-placement ... | |
| Has anyone directly compared Dali Rubicon 6 to Sonus Faber Sonetto V speakers? If I can get sound stage precision and clarity that I can "walk around in" and still have connectedness and musicality, I am in heaven Joseph Audio is calling your name. If you can find some Profiles (or any JA speakers) somewhere to hear it ... | |
