| Rockport Lyras @hilde45, I guess I missed the good stuff🙁 | |
| Parasound Halo JC 1+ You said you have JC1+ amps and want to trade them in for JC1+ amps. Doesn’t make any sense. | |
| Rockport Lyras Is there a discussion or just your statement? | |
| Benchmark AHB2 in Mono Block Configuration To OP There is an excellent review on Dogogo of the Benchmark AHB2 Monoblocks. The reviewer really loved it. If you get a chance, check it out it may remove all your doubt. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Legacy Audio, “Legacy Music Sampler III.” This is my go to for auditioning equipment. It will truly make your system shine if it’s up to the task. I got it free at RMAF 2017. Nick Mason, “Live At The Roundhouse CD1&CD2.” I just love th... | |
| Akai AS-980 Value What is an Akai AS980? Is it a reel to reel tape deck? | |
| Best Sounding Adapter - Making RCA into Banana or Spade? Thanks! All I hear are crickets😂 | |
| Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations Not sure if this would be to your liking as you already have Pass but there is a pair of Pass 160. something for sale here around your budget. I believe they will do class A up to their rated output of 160wpc. | |
| Still looking for a new Moving Coil Cartridge @newfzx7, It certainly was under my radar. I got a couple dozen PM singing the praise of the AT MM cartridges, especially the VM 540 and their more expensive siblings. I purchased a mounted AT direct from AT and only had to slide the cartridge... | |

| SVS Subwoofer Connection Why aren’t you using the line inputs on your SVS sub ? It’s a better way and much easier. | |
| Looking for integrated solid state amp for daily usage I believe JBL makes an integrated amp for less than your max price. It may be a S.A. 75 or something like that. That should compliment your JBL speakers quite nicely. I believe MD has an open box or demo of said amp for a very reasonable price.... | |
| Speaker cable length. No it will not make any difference. My main system has 1 15 foot speaker cable and 1 23 foot speaker cable. In the 25 years in this house I have never heard a difference or imbalance in either channel. The cords are 11 gauge. I have used 3 dif... | |
| Equalizer to compensate for hearing loss - Any success stories? I am in the same boat as the OP. I thought the tone controls on my Mac preamp would be enough but I was mistaken. I purchased the 6 band Schiit EQ for I think $300.00. It has been a Godsend. I was able to adjust it so that my system sounds the ... | |
| McIntosh C52 to C53? As others have said, get a good dac. My C2500 has the DA1 dac and I prefer not to use it. It is based on the ESS chip which I am not fond of. I find it too forward sounding. Suppose you bought the C53 and a better dac comes In a newer Mac preamp. ... |
