| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found I ordered the Veritas Praesta that I plan on using with my Luxman MQ-88uC amplifier. Was considering buying a couple more but then I figured I would see how I like it first and then maybe order again later. They had them in stock yesterday but it ... | |
| A Somewhat, Affordable Aurender @navyachts I've had the Innuos Zenith mk3 for a while, with 8TB storage, and I really enjoy it. If I didn't need the local storage and mainly just wanted to stream from Tidal or another similar service, I would probably go with the Innuos Pulse wh... | |
| Who has heard the Wyred4sound 10th Anniversary DAC? Always wanted to hear this dac but never had a chance. Their base model DAC-2 was great for the price when it came out way back when. I love how you can still upgrade the older players too. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Just emailed them about the Praesto power cable which I think is the one @bander speaks highly of. They responded within about 15 minutes(!) saying a batch is in the works right now. Sounds like those should be ready this week. They also mentioned... | |
| Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing? I loved the original Magico Mini. A true masterpiece. The V series was also very good. Ever since they switched away from wood enclosures to metal, I completely lost interest. The sound is very capable for what it is just not my style. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I think you can definitely improve on your old B&Ws. But let's appreciate that they gave you decades worth of enjoyment! Best bet is to find a good semi-local dealer and see if you can listen to some options for yourself. Then see if you can t... | |
| Looking to buy JSE Infinite Slope model 2 Wow thread resurrected from the dead! I sincerely hope the original poster is still in the market, and that they connect with @tattooddp since those speakers are very rare these days. | |
| Best sounding headphones you have owned? Would love to try out the JM Audio headphones. I hear so many good things about them, never seen them in person though. Seem like a killer deal. I'm loving the Raal headphones and am tempted by the new Immanis or Magna models but the pricing is a ... | |
| Upgrade from Innuos Zen Mini Mkiii to Innuos Pulse I think the Pulse makes more sense for most users compared to the Zen line. A few years ago I tried a bunch of options and ended up with a Zenith MKIII. But that is because I wanted something that would hold my entire library. I have the 8TB versi... | |
| A Somewhat, Affordable Aurender I'll echo what others have said about the older X100L. That was my first Aurender and I loved it. Later tried moving "up" the line and found that I didn't really care for most of the others, unless I went all the way to the top of the line. And by... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Nice to see another fellow Luxman CL-38uC user @lak! That is a beautiful system you got there. Thanks for adding your 2 cents about the Fidelis interconnect. If it satisfies someone with a system of that caliber, that speaks volumes. Spent more ... | |
| Sony or Panasonic 4K Player vs. Magnetar or Reavon Universal Player I was in a similar situation not long ago, the Oppo was actually starting to have issues with HDMI handshake failing. I was told it would potentially be an expensive fix with no guarantee of success. Went with the UB9000 and have been really happy... | |
| Ascend Acoustics - any experienced users? Agree with everyone else. Ascend makes great no nonsense designs. Maybe boring looking, the sound offsets that and then some. Reminds me of early Salk speakers before they got more advanced with bigger and better designs or more fancy wood options... | |
| Jamming with JAMO? Always wanted to try the R909, althouhg my room is probably better suited for the 907. Jamo has been making a lot of very inexpensive home theater type speakers lately which seems to diminish the brand name. I never care about prestige though, wou... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found I've been comparing the Veritas Connexa ethernet cable to my others. So I'm still very impressed with the performance. Especially with the price being lower than most of the others I have been trying out. System is the Innuos Zenith mark III, Mo... |
