HDCD To MacMini To Ayre QB9 Twenty DAC Hello @goofyfoot. Thanks for reporting on the BDP Pi! I'll have to look into that. Am considering a JCAT USB card and doing Mac Mini > JCAT > QB9 Twenty, but will also look at the Bryston unit. | |
Subwoofer Decisions - REL/Rythmik, Pair/Single, Paper/Aluminum Driver, etc. Very helpful discussion for me. Have been considering MJ Acoustics or REL (have owned both), but am very much circling in on a pair of F12SEs (or possibly FM8s). | |
HDCD To MacMini To Ayre QB9 Twenty DAC Hey goofyfoot, did you ever figure out how to make it work (play HDCD discs / tracks to your QB-9 Twenty)?How are you liking the 'Twenty', by the way? | |
New KEF Reference 5 speakers @avanti1960 May I ask what equipment you heard with the Reference 1s? I agree that at $8000 USD MSRP, they're not the best value out there. | |
Schiit Vidar.... Anyone heard one yet? That's right, aberyclark. | |
Equipment Stand Good to know that Arnold's stands/racks are as much a grand slam as his "riser" speaker stands that I have. | |
Focal 1037BE; All-Rounders Extraordinaire! Interesting. Thanks for sharing!I wonder if the same applies to the rest of the line (ie., could the 1007 be better than the 1008)? | |
KEF Reference 1 By the way, saying they sound like a giant HE1000 is a damn fine endorsement. | |
Used Pre - Ayre, Pass or Para JC2? beyachad, I'm assuming you meant to say that you had a K-1x? (Or was it upgraded to the 'evolution' [K-1xe]?) I can't find a single instance online where someone has compared the K-1xe to the KX-5 Twenty. I don't mean to hijack the op's thread,... | |
KEF Reference 1 mountainsong, how do you find they compare to Focal's Utopia speakers (assuming you've heard that particular line)? I'm considering a pair of used Micro Utopia Be, and later the Diablo Utopias. Actually, I'm a bit concerned that the Focals and T... | |
KEF Reference 1 Thanks, mountainsong. I've got a pair of the limited Totem 'The Ones', with plans to soon transition to a pair of used Focal Micro Utopia Be, but have also been wondering about the Reference 1s. Good to know. | |
Schitt Audio Still in business??? What did you inquire about anyway, psickerson? I've owned a bunch of their Schiit, maybe I could help. | |
I'm ready to pull the trigger on some new speakers.looking for some last minute advice Thanks bugredmachine for the Sulk suggestion! I’ve been seeing many positive impressions of their stuff popping up lately, and I’m looking to upgrade my monitors, so those Exotica’s have me intrigued.Snoopgordie, I personally feel that you could d... |
