Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...? You’ve got some great speakers there, but unfortunately I’ve not been able to compare any of them so I’ll just make matters worse by adding some others I think are at the same level and are at least worth reading some reviews,,, Usher ML802 Boen... | |
Help recommend a good tube preamp Atmasphere and ARC are fully balanced and fit well with your sound profile. | |
Help recommend a good tube preamp What preamp are you using now, and what kind of sound characteristics/improvements are you looking for? | |
Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers What’s your budget? | |
CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 Just fyi, here are the impressions from another member who added a Remedy to his 6000CDT and thought you might find it interesting… In my experience the CDs sound more alive now (a more natural-sounding reverb, more definition to the soundstag... | |
Basic Questions Congrats! I’m sure you’re gonna hear significant improvements with the stereo integrated. By all means, please report back once the Anthem is burned in. | |
Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers Take a look at these Silverline Prelude Plus floorstanders. Silverline speakers are very natural and produce 3D imaging and a huge soundstage much like KEF speakers. http://www.silverlineaudio.com/main/index.php?option=com_content&view=article... | |
Allnic tube dac Sorry for my ignorance of tube DACs, but are there any other OTL DACs out there or is this fairly unique? Makes a lot of sense, but as with everything in audio TANSTAAFL so there’s gotta be some trade offs somewhere I’d think. BTW, anyone try Al... | |
Do Streamer only devices really impact sound quality? Point is not to generalize about inputs/outputs, each case is different...blathering objective statements only further confuses people. @sns Oh, you mean blathering like this? USB inputs are optimized in many dacs, preferred by many. Reall... | |
CD Player - Dgital Out on Onkyo C-7030 Here ya go, eh? 300CAD$ for a Remedy. https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649879919-wyred4sound-remedy-reclocker/ | |
Dedicated line, how many outlets two or four? I’d absolutely do two as it won’t cost all that much more to run another line. Also, you can plug noisy digital components, power supplies, etc. into one outlet and other analog components in the other so they’re completely separated. FWIW. | |
Need your thoughts - LTA 40+ vs Pathos Inpol Integrated amp on 98db speakers. @jerryg123 Awesome amp! I’ve always held QLN speakers in high regard and not so familiar with Sonner but heard some good things. How would you compare/contrast the two in terms of sonic traits and relative strengths/weakness. Operative word is ... | |
Question about a set up For speaker cables I think these are a no-brainer choice. A respected member here compared these to much pricier cables and these performed very well especially given their very affordable price… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZ5HCTM?ref=ppx_yo2ov... | |
Do Streamer only devices really impact sound quality? Individuals use usb because it has best SQ vs other inputs/outputs available to them. I've observed many trying coax, AES/EBU, I2S inputs on dac, finding them inferior and returning to usb @sns IME no…just, no. That may be your individual expe... | |
Power conditioner vs use of a audio grade outlet? Screw Pangea. Here’s a really nice Maestro outlet that has faced many challengers. For $89 IMHO it’s a no brainer… https://www.cruzefirstaudio.com/maestro/the-maestro-outlet |
