| HiFi Rose 250A issues with app & setting up Personally I don’t have patience for stuff like this and hope you find a solution, but several others here have been underwhelmed by the Rose software, and that their support for a unit at this price level is basically nonexistent is inexcusable I... | |
| Bryston BDA-3 / Benchmark DAC3B You could try this. It’s transparent with very good detail but as an R2R DAC it’s not sterile sounding (I own it BTW) so may be the best of both worlds for you, and I believe the seller accepts returns if it doesn’t work out. Best of luck. htt... | |
| Bowers & Wilkins HTM4 vs Klipsch P-27c Klipsch. The horn thing is just ugly IMO. | |
| Bowers & Wilkins HTM4 vs Klipsch P-27c I’m not a big B&W fan, but I think their center speakers are excellent. Couldn’t find any reviews of the Klipsch but doubt it’s any better and personally think it’s ugly, but that’s me. FWIW, and best of luck. | |
| Krell Moves to new location It’s pretty amazing they’ve been able to keep any staff at all at this point and must be bleeding cash and racking up debt. I for one am rooting hard for them, but it’s gonna be a tough road back both financially and with the significant damage d... | |
| Joseph Audio RM-33LE vs DeVore Gibbon 8, my experience. @ozzy62 As I recall that Stereophile review was very positive and may have even earned a Class A rating for whatever that’s worth. I’d expect the LE to be an improvement over the model they reviewed if maybe only marginal. Hard to see going wro... | |
| New buy, no return policy Ditch the customer, there are others. @inna Yeah, there are so many customers out there that brick and mortar dealers are flourishing and popping up all over. 🙄 Again, you’re living in opposite world and those relatively few remaining dealers... | |
| Joseph Audio RM-33LE vs DeVore Gibbon 8, my experience. @ozzy62 If they’re the ones currently available for $2300, I’d have a hard time coming up with another near full range speaker better than those for that price. I’m a big JA fan though so admittedly I’m a little biased. | |
| Replacement For Wandla/Hypsos Combo Lampizator would definitely be up there as one to look at. For solid state Mojo, Denafrips, Bricasti, Meitner, Weiss, T+A, and Rockna all have great models in that price range that I’d think could also offer meaningful improvements. Best of luck. | |
| Can anyone verify that the Integra DRX 5.4 "Direct Mode" is indeed "Direct? Got it. Frustrating that it seems so difficult to get an answer to such a simple question and certainly doesn’t speak well of Integra’s customer support and hope you get an answer from somewhere eventually. | |
| Where Next? (Streaming Rig) Given what you’re looking for I’d be giving Lampizator DACs a very hard look. By all accounts the Pulsar is a significant step up from the Zenith, so between the two I’d expect you’d be making a huge improvement. Best of luck. | |
| New buy, no return policy The dealer was right and the buyer was wrong. Now he ended up with very expensive second hand stuff. @inna Ha! The OP ended up with perfectly functioning speakers at a huge discount and the dealer lost around $20k in a potential sale. Not su... | |
| PS Audios new PMG series.. That aside, does anyone think that another manufacturer will pick up the SACD ball and run with it. Like Sony perhaps, since they introduced it in the first place? @theo No way. SACD drives is a tiny niche market and not worth their time/inve... | |
| New buy, no return policy But at some level this is another example of someone using a brick and mortar to audition and then buying elsewhere on the internet. @onhwy61 I’m also put off by someone using a brick and mortar store to hear speakers and then buy online witho... | |
| Can anyone verify that the Integra DRX 5.4 "Direct Mode" is indeed "Direct? That’s frustrating and sorry I don’t have the answer, but I will say the bigger picture here is that if I had a nice turntable and a tube phono pre I wouldn’t want any of it running through a mass market AVR at all. Whether your AVR’s inputs are ... |
