| Gustard A26 I've tried a few Gustard DACs over the years, including the A26 recently. They all seemed nice but had some sort of major bug or malfunction to where each one got returned. One was DOA and its replacement had major issues too. I don't know if I'm ... | |
| Auralic Aries G2.1 or Innuos Zenith mk3 Pretty sure the question was about two specific products by Auralic and Innuos. Not 432evo, despite the dealer bringing that brand up again. Anyway back on topic, I compared these exact two products (among many others) a few years ago and my cho... | |
| FYI: Aurender A15 and A200 Models Are Now ROON Ready Yes I wrote a snarky reply earlier that got nuked so I apologize. But it seems like some people like to bring up unrelated topics or products very frequently, so I got frustrated with that. I'll leave that alone though. Glad to hear that Aurender... | |
| Do speakers need to be re-broken in? My thought is that if break in or burn in was ever going to be a real thing (in my experience it is, some people disagree) then speakers is the most obvious place we would experience it. Headphones too but that's the same concept. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found I just picked up another Praesto power cable. Going to slowly replace my ancient power cables one at a time. I would have loved to just do the whole lot at once but holiday deals have got the best of me, I better slow down. | |
| Luxman JPA15000 power cord? I would assume those found on ebay are fakes. I can't find much info about this particular power cable or what the MSRP is. So it's hard to be sure. But fake cables are everywhere. | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found @samureyex Thank you again for updates, I have to agree about the "musicality" for lack of a better word. It's a great balance between resolution and listenability that not many cables can manage. @tump350 They told me the same thing when I aske... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Agree about their Praesto power cable. It is extremely nice. I will be getting more when they have them in stock. I asked them why it didn't match the rest of the lineup (silver metallic look) and they said Praesto was their first creation, from ... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found I've been meaning to get back to this thread but haven't found time until now. Still very impressed with the Veritas Connexa network cable which I run from the wall jack to my Innuos Zenith mark III. It is so much better than the Wireworld Starlig... | |
| Bose buys McIntosh This really could go either way, but it doesn't have to be a disaster. It could actually be a very good thing. Just depends on how things are handled by the new management. But isn't that the case with any changes? If the brand wasn't sold at all ... | |
| Have you heard LTA Aero, Lab12 Reference, Denafrips Pontus 15th? The Pontus is a really nice DAC that should sound great in any system. I feel like everyone should give it a try at some point. Not that it is necessarily the absolute best option but it is very nice and gives you a starting point to know what you... | |
| PrimaLuna EVO 100 tube DAC I like Prima Luna analog gear, but their DAC wasn't a great fit in my system. Not saying it is a bad DAC at all. Just didn't feel as "analog" as I was hoping. Despite the tubes. Something like a Denafrips Pontus, or the Metrum DACs, or the Border... | |
| Burson DAC I still have a soft spot for the old Burson DACs, from back when their philosophy was all about discrete circuit designs and beefy linear power supplies. The newer stuff isn't bad at all but doesn't really move me in the same way. Definitely feels... | |
| dCS Mosaic Vs Roon Nucleus Plus - Titan I agree, Roon can sound just as good as anything else when done right. A lot of people I know default to an attitude where something that is more trouble to use sounds better to them. Sort of like vinyl where the ritual outshines the actual sound.... |
