| Steve Guttenberg finally reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8b loudspeaker. I’m definitely interested in these speakers but I’ll have to wait for a bigger model with more output. My seating distance is around 4.5m.These have a max spl of 105db at 1m. That would mean a max spl in the low 90’s at my listening position. Edi... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" Whether @recklesskelly is those other banned usernames or not I still think he has some valid points here regarding certification. I think that the device is intriguing and maybe it does exactly what you say it does. I’m still weary of using a dev... | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated @recklesskelly every single one of those hybrid units you’ve mentioned has a compromise in functionality (except maybe the McIntosh) compared to my Audio Research/Pass Labs combo. Whether it be limited balanced inputs, no balanced ht bypass , no w... | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated @recklesskelly There are definitely options out there. Unison has a nice range of hybrid units at a decent price that sound really good. Now in my situation I also “need” 2 balanced inputs (I could get by with one using an external switch) so now ... | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated For us that are fans of tube pre with ss amps (not class D) there aren’t a whole lot of options out there in the integrated world. Once you decide that a particular pre tube is the sound you’re looking for your options become even less. Definitely... | |
| Múnich 2023 Pro-ject Dark side of the moon turntable Definitely not for me. I think it’s the clamp/weight that turns me off | |

| Advice on how to liquidate system Definitely give it some time. I had an incident that affected my hearing as a child. The specialist told my parents that I’d be deaf before I reached 20. Not so as the ringing gradually diminished over the years to the point that I hardly notice i... | |
| Hidden Gems in Classic Rock Albums Neil Merryweather - Star Rider on the 1975 album Kryptonite. Definitely a lesser known singer but he has recorded with quite a few well known artists over the years. | |
| How hot is hot when moving from class a/b to to a or tubes? I can feel the heat from my First Watt class A amp from about a foot away. It runs much hotter than my 300b tube amp. I can tell the difference in room temperature when the FW has been on for a while. | |
| Network optimization for serious streamers @christianb5s4 I just hooked my LHY-SW8 this morning. So far it hasn’t changed the sound at all but I’ve been told that it can take a few hundred hours of burn in for the ocxo to sound its best. One thing I can say is that this little switch is bu... | |
