| Hattor Audio preamps? Oh my goodness. Apologies @mitch2. This entire time while reading this thread I had you mixed up with another member who has a somewhat similar user name, but was helpful when discussing Aric Audio and Tannoys in a private conversation many months... | |
| Hattor Audio preamps? @ozzy62 earlier in the thread you had mentioned that you had a Don Sachs preamp; I've only heard good things about Don Sachs. I know you and @mitch2 have Aric Audio amps and Hattor preamps, but was curious if you had tried Aric's preamps. I'm a li... | |

| Aurender A20 or Lumin X1 @yyzsantabarbara appreciate the education/information. That Roon forum thread was the only place I had heard Aurender becoming Roon Ready. Had my hopes up. | |
| Aurender A20 or Lumin X1 Has anyone else seen the following about Roon and Aurender by chance? On the Roon forum I had read that “They said that with the new line that utilizes Intel instead of AMD, that they are working on a Roon Ready status for Aurender.”https://commu... | |
| Aric Audio I agree. I think Aric is definitely one of the talented good guys in this hobby. I had purchased a used amp some time ago and had some questions. He was responsive throughout, as well as nice and genuine. What more could you ask for from a small b... | |
