Impressions: SMSL PA200 GAN FET Power Amps I just came across a newer version to the SMSL GaN amp said to have improved PS, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJ00BRnHskU | |
Impressions: SMSL PA200 GAN FET Power Amps Im late to this party. My Voyager Gan 1 among the first (which Im guessing you guys are talking about) crashed and burned ~ a year ago: I was getting ready to do a comparison after replacing knock-off Nordost Odin 2 gold cables with exceptionally ... | |
Will Open Baffle Speakers Approach the Speed and Dynamics of Horns? I have owned lots of speakers in same listening room of 30+ years. By far the most coherent are my EP 3.0s to which I immediately replaced the garbage OEM wiring (a very weak link) another is the external XOs, which I never listened to on the spe... | |
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report After reading the article about the first all digital recording attributed to Mark Knofler, I am spinning it now and will compare to the much later hybrid | |
Flatscreen between speakers @spenav A thick mat, like the one being heavily marketed for pets/people coming into the dwelling should work well | |
Whats playing on your system today? @audi-owe I read the article about the original Brothers in Arms first DDD, spinning it now, I also have the hybrid disc,but no SACD | |
The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype @rbstehno Lots of excellent 411 FYI I had a full AA dac/transport rig, including the light interconnects My dac/pre of some 4 years now is the AA DDP-1 + PS 5- AMAZING | |

What type of speaker would sound better? Clearly several people responding have no clue about bass. I have Emerald Physics 3.0s (2 way 12" open baffle- super efficient) in a large room and get ample bass. If I wanted more I could add 1-2 subs, but that only complicates overall sound repr... | |
Integrated amp under $5k Def check out Technics, It would b on my very short list | |
What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase? there are plenty of VG-EXC open baffles around. My choice for decades is Emerald Physics though no longer made. Typically available $1000+++ | |
Problem with CEC transport Blessing in disguise I owned several CEC transports over the decades. Belt stretching was the issue FF to late 2024, I bought a Shanling ET3 transport new from their www- MSRP $750. It is amazing | |
DAC DIRECT IN TO AMPLIFIER OR TO PREAMPLIFIER I weigh the cost beyond the dac itself: space/shelf for it, power cord, IC, footers, all of which can easily cost an extra $1000+++ Knowing that from owning several separate dac/pres I was excited to finally buy a Audio Alchemy DDP 1- and 5 month... |
