| Peachtree Grand Integrated X1 vs Parasound Halo Integrated I believe I read it in one of the Audio rags, maybe Stereophile, TAS or Tone. I do remember reading it is a John Curl design. I'm not a fan of Class D yet. I have heard a few of them and find I get listener fatigue quite quickly. I good frien... | |
| Peachtree Grand Integrated X1 vs Parasound Halo Integrated .These are 2 very different integrated amps. The Halo is a John Curl design using discrete output transistors running class AB where the Peachtree is a Class D amp which IMHO is not ready for prime time.

| Retooling the system upward?? What speakers would be a major upgrade over GET model 7's? Why not give the Triton 1 and 2+ a listen? They are a very different speaker than the 7. I have 2 systems with the Triton 1 in one and the Triton 2 in the other. | |

| Is the Merill "Gem Dandy" turntable far superior in sound than the Project RPM-3 TT?? At around your price point, you could get into a used VPI Scout. I have had mine for 7 years and have no desire to change. | |
| Rockport Atria OR Legacy Aeris OR Focal Scala Utopia III (V1's) If you are in the New England area, contact Goodwins High End. They have been Rockport dealers for years and could give you some insight. P.S. I am in no way affiliated with Goodwins. | |

| New Sony Firmware For HAPZ1ES Player You can merge folders via the remote control. I forgot which app, but I had a cd with a song missing which was on a separate disk It enabled to merge the 2 folders into one. You will have to experiment with the remote to get it right but it doe... | |
| What to buy....Auralic Aries, Sony Hap-ZES, or Auralic Altair? I have the Sony HAPZ1ES music player/server and am very happy with it. It has everything you are looking for and I have never, ever had any software glitches. This is one piece of equipment I will be keeping for a long time. | |
| Looking for an upgrate from Cronus Magnum I wouldn't bother with tube rolling the Cronus Magnum. I was in the same boat as you and I purchased over 300.00 worth of preamp and driver tubes. I was happy for a week, then was unhappy again. Although the Cronus Magnum has 100wpc, it doesn't... | |
| Which integrated amp would you pick? I couldn't remember the name of the store, but Mike and Dave were indeed a pleasure to deal with. I also paid 2,200.00 for it, not 2,100.00 for it as I first stated. I looked up the receipt to be sure. It was the drive back to RI that made me d... | |
