| 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... | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement I believe that audiophiles are chasing a sharper definition than the real world. In the real world everything just blends together into a wall of sound and through the reverberations of the room. There’s no stereo effect and crystal clear "instru... | |
| 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... | |
| Class D Amplification Announcement @frogman The purpose of doing comparisons is really twofold — it provides the reviewer a check on what he/she thinks they are hearing, and it gives the readers a relative comparison for context. Humans are notoriously bad at absolutes and very goo... | |
| B&W CM9 with which center channel This Nautilus HTM1 looks like a screaming deal if you can stretch a little. I think the center and subs are the most critical speakers in HT and with this you’d have the center nailed shut… https://www.ebay.com/itm/204076389238 I know it’s blac... | |
| Am I Better Off With Limited Low Frequency Speaker In A Small Room? I expect most audio salons don't have a clue how to set up properly. +1. | |
| Static IP for Aurender N100H music server? I’m having the same problem with my Zen Stream so you have my deepest sympathies. Ugh. |
