| Liberty Audio X-VOX Loudspeaker I don’t know the YouTube guy from a hole in the wall and haven’t seen his video, but I demoed a pair of PBN B741 speakers ($8500) made by the same designer and seems to follow a similar recipe of using ScanSpeak drivers and other premium parts. T... | |
| Buying a DAC when you can't try it first i am trying to plug my msb dac into my vandy 3a sigs but nothing is playing... can you please help? :)You forgot the amp silly. Plug that into the dac’s input and you’ll be fine. Thanksgiving Happy. | |
| Thinking out loud: solid state Linestage < $2k? What exactly do you mean by “a little forward in Presentation?” Are you looking for a lot of detail or are you talking about an upfront soundstage? | |
| Buying a DAC when you can't try it first I am running a VTL S-200 amp into a BAT VK30 pre in to a pair of Vandersteen 2CE Sigs.It’ll sound much better if you run the VTL into the Vandys. Sorry, couldn’t resist. | |
| HOW DO YOU CLEAN YOUR CABLE JACKETS? Sounds like a great excuse for a cable upgrade! | |
| Audiophile system for Techno and Dance music Two very different recommendations that would sound awesome with the Swarm would be:- ATC SCM40 v2- Spatial Audio X5 or M3Both use pro drivers but similarities absolutely end there. ATC is sealed-box design and need power while Spatial is open ba... | |
| Where are the cheap home streamers? I'm still not understanding the obsession with streamersIf you don’t want to be hard wired to your DAC and/or want reduced noise/distortion for more serious listening a dedicated audio streamer is your best bet. | |
| Amplifier suggestions please Given your price range and what you’re looking for I’d second looking at a Class-D amp. D-Sonic flies under the radar but gets stellar reviews, and they offer a trial period. The Bel Canto REF500S is also very nice, and Music Direct offers a 60-... | |
| Amplifier suggestions please What would you want to improve over your Emorivas, and what sound characteristics in general are most important to you? | |
| Streamer's without built in DAC options? If you still have/use CDs I’d get either an Innuos Zen or Zenith streamer/server that, along with being excellent streamers and Roon friendly, allow you to load all your CDs directly into them (they have built-in disc drives) so you’ll have access... | |
| SQ impact from a tube preamp after signal leaving an AVR? This horse has been bludgeoned to death already by the OP who seems obsessed with asking the same question from as many redundant angles as he’ll continue to get answers for. Enjoy the insanity people. Peace out. | |
| My Mark Levinson preamp dying - looking for new preamp, sound as good, wont break bank For those of us not familiar with your preamp, what aspects of sound reproduction are most important to you? | |
| Preamp recommendation What pre are you using now and what would you like to improve upon? What aspects of sound reproduction are most important to you? Tubes or just SS? | |
| Integrated Tube Amp Demo While I certainly understand wanting to go with a tube integrated, not sure that’s the way I’d go with your speakers. At 88dB dipping down near 4 Ohms with extreme phase angles, the 805s don’t scream tubes to me. And at the very least you’ll pro... | |
| tough choices Are there any sonic improvements you’d like to see with new amps? What aspects of sound reproduction are most important to you? Like others, I’m not a fan of your dealer from what I’m hearing. I’d suggest calling Sonus Faber for recommendations o... |
