| McCORMACK DNA-1 @arcticdeth — Blame me if you must, but it already happened to my DNA 0.5 Rev A (still sadly sitting dead in my basement), so trust me when I say it’s better to know before your amp just up and dies one day than to hold out hope that you can someh... | |
| Newly patented, infinitely adjustable system tuning Hi! That’s awesome because now we can make the sound Perfect for every recording despite the fact that all speakers are flawed and way overpriced when you look at the cost of the parts. I just patented a knob that lets you direct more of the sou... | |
| Whats this for? It’s the 326s IKEA Edition. | |
| Paradigm Sig. V3 vs Revel Studio 2 What’s your budget? | |
| Speakers for Pro-ject Debute Carbon DC with 2M blue What kind of sound characteristics are you looking for, what’s your current amp/preamp, and what’s your budget? | |
| Anyone ever try to toe-out? My podiatrist recommended against it. | |
| Upgrading speaker cables advice. There’s a pair of Acoustic Zen Hologram ll bi-wire cables on US Audio Mart for only $650 that may provide meaningful improvements on the cheap. If they don’t you can just turn around and sell’em for little/no loss. I use AZ’s cheaper Satori cabl... | |
| Spotify premium doesn't see node 2i as avail. device Sorry about your conundrum—I feel your pain. Why not upgrade your music source instead of the streamer and try Qobuz. Sounds better than Spotify and it’s free to try. Sorry I can’t be of more help, but best of luck in finding a solution. | |
| Tube Preamp to go with Bryston SST2 amp and Magnepan 1.7i speakers I'm looking for better soundstage and instrument clarity.Look no further than a used Bryston BP26 or BP6. I bought a BP6 for exactly those same characteristics you’re looking for, and obviously there should be further synergies with your amp. Be... | |
| Tube Preamp to go with Bryston SST2 amp and Magnepan 1.7i speakers What pre are you using now and what kind of improvements and sound characteristics are you looking for? | |
| Amp/Preamp Recommendations I think your speakers are a bit of a tough load for a tube amp. I’d look at using a hybrid integrated like the Unison Unico Due ($3700 new) that has a tube preamp section and a solid state amp biased toward Class A that should provide more of the ... | |
| A DAC to help overcome compressed music? Totally agree with @mahler123. You might consider trying a tube DAC as they can sometimes inject some life into lesser recordings without ruining good recordings and also be a big improvement over the Node’s DAC. I’d try an MHDT Orchid DAC that yo... | |
| Preamp choices:Short list Why only those three? What pre are you using now, and what sound characteristics are you most looking for? Budget? You really didn’t give much to go on here to form a basis for a meaningful recommendation. | |
| Need a preamp, new or used. My biggest problem is my wife has sensitive hearing. High notes hurt her ears. Divorce can fix that. Expensive tweek for sure but well worth it in the long run. | |
| Not Thrilled with Vandersteen 2CE Sigs - where is the first place to work on? You need to be more specific about what you’re not liking about the sound and what recordings aren’t sounding good to you, otherwise you’re just spinning everyone’s wheels here. |
