| Speakers for Pro-ject Debute Carbon DC with 2M blue Your Pioneer should be able to drive the 6.3s fine for now. I wouldn’t buy another amp until you have whatever speakers you choose in house and then see what direction you want the sound to go and what specifically you’d like to improve upon. Th... | |
| Choosing Headphones up to 1700 USD I think the Monoprice is probably a very good unit and a good value (gotta love Monoprice!). The SDA-2 uses a more advanced AKM chip and they’ve paid a lot of attention to improving the USB input, clock, jitter, etc. whereas I don’t see anything ... | |
| Speakers for Pro-ject Debute Carbon DC with 2M blue The Wharfedale Diamond 11.3 is available on sale for $700/pr at Music Direct and others. Great sounding speakers for the price and relatively easy to drive. Elac Debut F5.2 is also worth a look but is a little harder to drive. Hope this helps, ... | |
| In my comparison experiment, go Lore or Lore Reference, or something else, for the same $ I’d definitely recommend giving the LSA-10 Signatures a listen available here on sale from manufacturer for $1399 and 30-day trial period. Read the reviews. Best of luck in your search. | |
| Choosing Headphones up to 1700 USD I think the HIFIMAN ‘phones would really be worth a try given what you’re saying. What I find really striking about them is their expansive “out of the head” soundstage and the very detailed yet not harsh or fatiguing treble. The bass is different... | |
| Audio Mirror vs Prima Luna tube DAC A very knowledgeable friend has recommended the Schiit Yggdrasil as a SS alternative at about the same price point as the AM.I wouldn’t include the Yggy given what you’re looking for as it’s neither tubed nor NOS that I think will both help in get... | |
| Server/Streamer or Streamer/DAC? What is it about the more expensive streamers that provide better quality sonics? Purpose built to optimize audio quality with higher-quality parts while minimizing contamination and noise. | |
| 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. | |

| 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. |
