| Counterpoint Natural Progression Turn On Problems @johnsonwu gave you some good thoughts. Shipping it to the US is likely prohibitively expensive so I’d make a new post here and ask if someone knows a repair guy in your area, or even quite a bit further. I had the same thing happen to my McCorm... | |
| Incorporating sub into my 2 channel / HT system This might be a little nutty, but if you’ve got the budget and the space you could buy another sub and hook one up for HT and the other for stereo. The added benefit is you have the ability to optimize each sub for its specific purpose. You can ... | |
| Worth fixing? recnnected the Rotel and started switching cables around. I think the issue is in with the Arcam receiver on CD setting connecting to the left speaker. (Turntable setting doesn’t have this problem). Does that seem plausible? Entirely plausibl... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested I think the combo of the LTA and AH amp could be absolutely sublime and look forward to your impressions. | |
| Don’t buy used McCormack DNA 1990s amps The input boards are repairable as he and I talked about what needed to be done (time intensive). @atlvalet Yeah, that’s why SMcAudio is no longer doing only the repair. Time intensive = expensive and/or not worth the shop’s time/effort to repa... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested Congrats! Do report back when you get to hear them for a bit. | |
| For Gustard R26...which bang for the buck: DDC or LHY OCK clock? I think the Musician Audio Pisces is a good value and worth a look. https://www.amazon.com/Pisces-Interface-STM32F446-PCM768KHz-Isolation/dp/B0B7HPTMFW | |
| Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 vs. Dynaudio Focus 140/160 Yup. Patrick is awesome and a great source of information. He upgraded my DNA 0.5 RevA to their latest and greatest — the only remaining parts from my original amp are the chassis and the transformer. Other than that, it’s basically a totally new ... | |
| DAC to pair with Baetis Prodigy X3 Server Congrats on the DAC8! T&A makes great stuff and I’m sure you’ll be thrilled with the sound. | |
| Pairing Bryston 28b3 with tubes What preamp are you using now, and what specific improvements/sound characteristics are you looking for? | |
| Used vs. new Buy these. I worked for Magnolia and am very familiar with the B&W D3 sound and these outperform the 802s on every level IMHO. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649920381-joseph-audio-perspective2-sapele-finish-graphene-woofer/ | |
| Good speakers for Parasound Halo JC1 Give the Joseph Audio Perspective 2 a listen if you can. | |
| WBT bi-wire jumpers Well, I can just tell you what I did. I run a shotgun bi-wire pair of cables with spade connectors that I was pretty happy with. Then, a cable designer said I should try his wire jumpers with banana plugs in addition to the bi-wire cables. I ca... | |
| What speakers work with low wattage class A amps +1 Coincident Technology and Reference 3a if you don’t want horns, Klipsch, etc. | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested +1 Verity Audio. They fly a bit under the radar but are fantastic. Another would be Gershman Avant Garde. Both of these are hard to find, but if you can find them well worth the effort. ProAc is also very musical but still very nicely detailed. |
