| Merrill Audio ELEMENT 118 on Tour My definition of cool- neutral- warm is based on several factors, like whether the singer, hollow body guitar, cymbals, piano keys/board... sound naturalSome systems get the leading edge of the pluck, but lack the resonance inside the hollow body ... | |
| Merrill Audio ELEMENT 118 on Tour ricevs, et al,I too am a believer that all cables sound best when off the floor. Years ago I demonstrated this in a friends system (all top BAT, CEC spinner with MSB dac AND several exotic TTs with multiple arms, and $5K+ cartridges). His speakers... | |

| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong Ralph, not meant to be insulting, but couldn't you sell your products for a lot less? Nothing there that's cutting edge, though I do understand that highest quality parts cost significantly moreAnd wouldn't the GaN input buffers need to be a lot m... | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong could this be what George is hearing? https://parttimeaudiophile.com/2013/09/15/channel-d-presents-the-seta-buffer/viber6, I think Ric Schultz said he could make theVan Alstines' sound much better. That's what I was referring to, though I failed t... | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong GeorgeYou have made your position on Class D perfectly clear. It would be nice if you would take a time out from the back and forth, especially since you haven't actually heard the newest offeringsBottom line is, currently GaN offerings are quite ... | |
| Anyone have experience with the new ELAC DDP-2? boxer, +1. I can't see replacing my DDP-1/PS 5 anytime soonHard to imagine the goodness that the PS 5 adds could be crammed into the DDP-2, unless PM was able to include a HQ SMPS. I replaced the OEM SMPS in my Oppo 105 with a LPM to excellent affect | |

Both front and back walls are 50- 90% glass PLUS a open up/down stairwell on the left sideBeen using a pair of EP KC IIs and dual SVS subs which do a darn good j... | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong George, you continually exhibit selective memory. Your ad nauseum mantra, makes me wonder WHY you persist? WE ALL GET IT: you’re not a fan. Neither are you ’converting any of us, so what’s your point? Oh, and FYI, ALL genres of amps have Achilles ... | |
| What would be your list of the World's Top Ten DAC's and Why? Search YT for OCD Hifi Guy. He just compared 13 dacs from $850 > $23K | |
| How good is an Oppo BDP-83 as a transport? To be used with Denafrips Ares DAC Machina Dynamica's New Dark Matter worked wonders in my Oppo 105.Definitely worth the small amount of money it costs |
