| help needed for new headphone system Sorry, Spendor SP3/5R2, which is one of their later iterations of the LS3/5a. | |
| help needed for new headphone system @joeycastillo I'm in the same boat. In addition to the LS3/6 set I have a pair of Spendor LS3/5R2, and it is that wonderful midrange that I am looking to find in a headphone setup. I should have been more explicit in the original post. I will l... | |
| help needed for new headphone system Many thanks for these posts. This information will make my search much easier. I was unaware of ZMF, and they are only 10 miles from me! | |
| help needed for new headphone system @ghdprentice Thanks very much, that it exactly the advice I was looking for. Woo has a big presence at Axpona but I didn't spend any time with them , unfortunately. I'll do some research on their product line. @larryi As I posted, I spent time a... | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist Many thanks to the OP and all the respondents. Threads like this are a great source of music recommendations. I will listen to them all eventually. Many I would never have stumbled on by myself. Best wishes. | |
| Harman To Acquire B&W, Denon, Polk And Marantz From Masimo In $350 Million Deal What Harmon/Samsung bring to the table are financial and marketing resources, and that is precisely what the small, innovative companies lack. It's a tough slog for the small entrepreneur, with cash flow always threatening to end the dream. A ro... | |
| Most recent concert Saw Kraftwerk at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago on Saturday. What a disappointment. The volume was simply too loud. The bass was physically oppressive and muddy. The highs caused me to wince. It was not possible to discern details at any... | |
| Most recent concert Going to a Kraftwerk show tonight in Chicago. A year ago saw the Eagles fronted by Steely Dan. Awesome night! | |
| Surge protectors--how many $ make sense? Surge protection. I'd stay away from urge protection! | |
| Surge protectors--how many $ make sense? OP - Since you have the Shunyata on trial why not pick up a Furman 20i that can be returned and compare them? Might save yourself some significant change. +1 on the whole-house urge protection. It's a no-brainer at a few hundred dollars install... | |
| Streamer apps critical +1 on the importance of ui/software in a streamer. I went from a Node to a miniDSP SHD with Volumio. Hardware was fine but Volumio was a horrible experience. I even stopped listening to music. My wife actually encouraged me to buy a new stream... | |
| Starting my showroom again @nashvillehifi I will add my 2cents even though I know little about the inside of this industry. I am a successful entrepreneur and have experience in venture capital, though. I encourage you to follow your passion, but with some hard-stop cavea... | |
| Advice on Sterling LS3/6 I might add that Andrew did a phenomenal job packing up the pair of LS3/6 that I bought. Jeff Stake was a pleasure to do business with, too. | |
| Discerning a difference between streamers is difficult...only me or common for all? OP - I, too, was prepared to climb the upgrade ladder on streamers but have creased, at least for the time being. I went from a Bluesound Node 2i using its DAC, to using the Node 2i as a streamer but a Cambridge CXA81 DAC, to a miniDSP SHD stream... | |
| Weak link +1 for Bacch4Mac, but Edgar (the inventor) will tell you that you absolutely need to treat the first reflection points. Best of luck. |
