| Roon for high end audio? I have the audio gd r7 that accepts I2S. Using usb and very happy. Is there an advantage to I2S. Used hdmi cables with old ps audio transport and dac | |
| More watts or better power ? my experience with wattage is speaker amp matching. While waiting for new speakers, tried my esoteric class a amp with paradigm speakers.they have excellent bass response using small bass drivers. With the esoteric the current must have shunted ... | |
| My Fyne 702a I’m also using a Japanese low powered integrated amp. F03. 30 watts class a. If I hadn’t heard them together would never have thought enough power but now issues with higher volumes. Sounds like purchasers of the 502sp got the 702 at a better pr... | |
| My New Magnepan 1.7i's sound dull and lifeless on the top end...why? I had 7 years with Maggie 3.7 s. Preamp isn’t the issue. I had a nakamichi amp heavily biased to class a and it was a total mismatch. Look for a a used Bryston or Mcormick amp, or a modern parasound amp. Needs an amp that can deliver fast sett... | |
| Help with Shortlist of Speakers! (SF vs Devore vs Others?) If you have access to a Fyne audio dealer, they are very revealing without fatigue as well as excellent bass. I am using a 30 watt class a ss amplifier with plenty of power to spare. They have budget lines, and super hi end lines. Mine are the 7... | |
| CD Quality Versus Streaming Quality Stating old stuff here. When cd’s came out 1 k of ram was about 1000 dollars. The red book standard for music was ahead of the means to store it or read it accurately in real time. Reading digits off a spinning disk has inherent errors up to 5 p... | |
| What Integrated Amp do You use Esoteric F03. 30 watts class a more than enough to power Fyne speakers. Looking forward to using the phono section and can also dry breakfast after 39 minutes | |
| My Fyne 702a Running in nicely. Not a big burn in guy but the driver has improved to a ‘coherence” I didn’t realize was missing first 50 hours | |
| My Fyne 702a esoteric f 03 integrated. Lowly 30 wpc class a. | |
| My Fyne 702a To bejesian, my response reflects my love of the speaker. I know little more than you about the drivers and frequencies other than what was published on the web site. Made the 50ilerl trip to audition a luxman integrated and the expected demo wa... | |
| I think I screwed up 😬☹️ Reopening the box from my dynavector xv1 after it had been in storage or 5 years and finding the cantilever broken. Nothing else comes close in the analog screwups can compare. | |
| What are the current useless terms in this "audio world" Any use of the noun timbre as an adjective or adverb | |
| Speaker suggestions please - going to the BIG city Quintessence audio. Bit of a trip to Morton grove outside Chicago. One of the true gentleman in the business, Mick Servance. Recently became a Wilson dealer. Also Sonus Faber. And prima Luna electronics. | |
| Class A amplifiers Went to buy a tube amp and wound up buying an esoteric class a. Loads of heat and have heard horror stories about having to send it to Japan for service | |
| CD v Streamed The bias towards the physical medium of the cd is the nostalgia for physical medium, much like lp vs over the air fm. The cd came out when a computer with 1k of ram was 999 dollars. The reading of the cd even with the most high end transport had... |
