| Stock Voyager GaN amp (350/600) Contrasted with my EVS1200 (600/1200) A week ago I sold my~ 10 yo SVS powered subs. While they added weight, they weren't high quality 2 channel subs. I didn't realize how much they set my sound back until they were gone, and I moved he speakers back ~ 2ft, now ~50" from the front wal... | |
| Nobsound springs - load range I finally got around to taking my Emerald Physics 3.4s off the Harbor Freight dollys they've been on since I got them over a year ago. Each base is resting on 4 full spring Nobsounds. Quite an improvement! | |
| Amplfiers that Sound like Pass 30.8 that are not so heavy LSA Voyager 350, a GaN amp with upscale power supply Sounds great, and < $3000 | |
| HOW CRITICAL ARE JUMPER CABLES It depends on how revealing your system is and whether you're simply jumping biwire speaker binding posts. But for sure, if it has stamped crap metal jumpers you should hear a big improvement I have Emerald Physics 3.4s with outboard XOs. They... | |
| Integrated vs. Separates on a Budget Im not going to go through the thread, so my input may have been stated, possibly even by me LOL Every piece of kit benefits from; *a quality power cord, typically >$300 *its own shelf (do not stack amp and pre) * it's own vibration/isolati... | |

| If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically... Thanks for this!!! Although I have 2 different enhancing discs XLO and Isotek, I have been negligent to use them. 3 days ago I reinstalled my Marantz HDCD 1 and while it sounded appreciably better than my Oppo 105 with upgraded PS (though also... | |
| Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood? Emerald Physics 2.8s only available on the used market, but amazing | |
| LSA Voyager Gan 350 I've had one for maybe 6+ months. No issues. Love it. I was using it with SVS powered subs, which I just sold. My room is ~ 21 x 35 x 12 peak open beam, lots of glass front and back, plus tile floors, though I have a thick 12 x 15 rug in front of ... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Mac McAnnally No Problem Here I hadn't played this in at least a year. Amazing natural life like sound | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition 2 come to mind. The second I would likely not have known about except that the Hattor dual mono passive pre with remote that I had did not come with a gain stage. I could order it, but I did not feel comfortable to do the install, so reluctantly, ... | |

| Integrated vs. Separates on a Budget Parasound Hint could be a very nice keeper but it's class A/B which means it gets pretty warm when playing music, a plus in winter. HOWEVER... The Technics SU G700 is 21st century tech and extremely well engineered: plus GaN technology is 21st... | |
| New Amp Choice (A or B) I had the M700s and while quite nice, BUT, the LSA Voyager GaN 350 amp is in an entirely different league, and on sale for a few more days! $24-2700 There are a couple threads on them in Agon |
