| Anything better than Revel F228be? Hey @tdimler ... Salons are the obvious choice, but they have been around such a long time, that they are definitely due for an update. I have a feeling their new line (Ultima3??) is about to launch in a year or two | |
| Anything better than Revel F228be? Sasha 2 is way more expensive that I can afford. My hope is to some ~ $20K speakers used for much less than MSRP. Or I can just stay put with my F228Be, which are great speakers anyway.As subjective as it may sound, Sopra does not do bi-wire, and ... | |
| Anything better than Revel F228be? Nope. I have heard both Kanta and Persona, and preferred my F228be . Sopra.... maybe | |
| Bi-Wire with two pairs of speaker cables @rosstoys Yes, I sold them. They were pretty good, but I like to experiment with cables quite a bit, and upgraded to Synergistic Research Atmosphere X Euphoria (Level 3) cables. They work a bit better for me, but not by a large margin.I'd say if ... | |

| ISOTEK - Full System Enhancer CD Get the Ayre CD instead. Same concept but more effective | |
| 2000-2500 USD budget for an integrated amplifier. Do amplifiers sound the same? :) Ethan Winer is in the business to sell acoustic panels. Of course he would say "nothing matters, spend your money on acoustic panels". | |
| Buying advice: McIntosh vs SimAudio for Integrated Amplifier/DAC. Keep the DAC separate. Buy a Luxman L-509x Integrated Amp. | |
| Hacking a Luxman Integrated Interesting! Thanks @erik_squires !I have the Luxman L-509x.So, the "separate" function would be used if I would want to drive the Amp function of my Luxman via the preamp section of my DAC? Then, would I need to connect my sub to my DAC RCAs out... | |

| How good is MSB Discrete Dac? Just on Base price, the Premier is double in price of the Discrete. So better sound significantly better than the Discrete. Let alone the clock upgrade, and the power base, that can bring the price to a nice Mercedes car.Also, double in price is l... |
