| Integrated amp recommendation I personally use a Peachtree Nova 300-Bluesound Node 2i - I use the Nova's DAC-; Pro ject CD transport and Harbeth 30.1 monitors in a very small square room. Night mare(!) but after much stress it sounds pretty good for such a modest system. They ... | |
| What to listen for? On a JGB show from The Keystone in the 70's on Real Listen one night- super loud -you can hear some woman(wasted) wander up to Garcia (he's wailing) and ask him if he still gives guitar lessons. He keeps playing and responds "I don't really have ... | |
| Speakers for a unique small room I have a similar room but just no open end I use my Harbeth 30.1. They seem very forgiving as far as placement and distance position. Also I moved all furniture out of room. Ya gotta want it. They are big in a small room but I did already have the... | |
| How do you stop house guest from damaging your speakers? When I saw the headline on the subject I thought this thread would ask about the wives and kids that that blow drivers and fuses while using the equipment. And I know most of you will not allow that but I have been caught unawares. And I won't eve... | |
| Did the Old Receivers Sound Good? By and large - No. I had Kenwood’s Rotel, I don’t remember them all. Never liked any of them. Or we wouldn’t have Hi- end would we? Tho for a relatively modest investment I currently get great sound. I wish I had some of the $ I spent back on that... | |
| streaming and audiophile stereo Speakers, power, Cables, ETHERNET Cable. | |
| It was 61 years ago today... I was there and the experience informed the rest of my life: the Acid, The Dead , I saw over 300 GD shows and I don't regret a single minute of it. Culturally J,P,G&R formed us all and anyone who sez otherwise is just lying or Dead Wrong. The ... | |
| what cd player ? Get a DAC you'll need it later anyway and then almost any transport will be ok. I use a Pro-Ject and an integrated with a DAC; Just to eliminate the analog connections is such a relief. | |
| A Skeptics Digital Upgrade Journey Works for me | |
| What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey dman1974 some posts seem to have got little off point (!) as usual. When I read your original post I just thought YES! Right on you are so right that is the right advice. Speakers-Power-Cables even a semi modest system (like my own) can sound pret... | |
| Class D with high efficiency speakers I am running Peachtree Nova 300 and Harbeth 30.1 24/7 with no probs at all and electric bill is almost un impacted. With a little effort -cords, ethernet- it sounds really good. | |
| Baffled and Frustrated: Streaming/DAC Sound Issues I have the exact problem I know the sound of which you speak. I use RP or Amazon with an optical cable and BluOS. That little crunch will drive you crazy and it appears out of nowhere when your set up is working fine so…nbad wire maybe…just today ... | |
| Vinyl - One Word - WOW!! Whatev Man | |
| Not sure what to think or do... Just a little story here; I have been running my system in my bedroom literally 24/7 for almost a year- I have issues- Harbeth 30.1's I bought new in '17 and a Peachtree Nova 300 and Bluesound Node just streaming. The other night, POP, everything... | |
| Power cable dilemma I’m using cheap Pangea I do not like but I do not know on what direction to proceed with power cord to power Harbeth 30.1 with 300 S/S. ???? |
