| Positioning B&W 802’s with spikes in hardwood? I’m going to try these that not only make it a cinch to move speakers but several people much prefer them for sonics over spikes… https://herbiesaudiolab.com/products/threaded-stud-glider | |
| What Digital to Digital Converter Do You Use? Why? While it obviously can happen in certain cases, I think it’s fair to say people who prefer other connections to i2S are in the minority so for most it would be worth exploring if their DAC has an i2S conncection. | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement @pehare What tube amp were you comparing the Atmaspheres to? | |
| Boulder 866 vs Gryphon Diablo 300 Almost sounds like the Esoteric was hooked up out of phase. Congrats on the Luxman. | |
| Recommendation for Headphones under $250 There’s a pair of Hifiman Sundaras on Amazon being sold in “Like New” condition from a very reputable seller for $240 (retail $299) and you can have them by this Tuesday with free shipping. Great headphones. Check out this video review. He also ... | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement There’s also the LSA Voyager GaN 350 from Underwood HiFi. | |
| Sternklang Cables With a name like Sternklang, it’s got to be good. Yeesh. | |
| Streamer creates a Wow experience @tubeguy76 Thanks for the update and glad it seems to be working out. Yeah I’m very happy with the Pegasus in my HeadFi system, and I get my McCormack amp back from SMcAudio soon with full mods so I’ll definitely have more to say once I get that u... | |

| Amps for B&W 805 Diamond: Rogue Audio or Krell, Pass labs, ML, Accuphase Well, I’d rule out the Medusa for previously mentioned reasons, and I’d rule out McIntosh because the treble will likely be too reserved for your tastes. I’m not familiar enough with Krell as they seem to have shifted back to their more classic s... | |
| What Digital to Digital Converter Do You Use? Why? Other than the Holo DAC I’ve never heard anyone say they preferred another connection to i2S. Some extra connections are worth making it seems. | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. Congrats! If you could, let us know what you think once you get it hooked up. | |
| Recommendation for Headphones under $250 Is it important that other people can’t hear any sound coming from the headphones? | |
| Amp recommendations for Hifiman HE1000 V2 I have the Arya Stealths and I don’t think the Chord will let them completely open up as per the stereonews.net review, but the MM-500 may well work fine if you like their sound profile. | |
| Amps for B&W 805 Diamond: Rogue Audio or Krell, Pass labs, ML, Accuphase My most important sound characteristics are deep, soft, neat bass. Also a thick, warm mid-low and sparkling treble. The only thing the Medusa will do well for you is the sparkling treble as its mids are not thick/meaty (although not thin) and t... |
