| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? @helomech +1 Well said! | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed So the verdict will be coming any time now? | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels Honda/Toyota.Harbeth SHL5+/Spendor Classic 1/2. | |
| Recommendation for DAC needed. Do you have the multibit upgrade, or is it the standard Gungnir? If the latter, the upgrade might be the way to go. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Volodos, Mompou.Wonderful! Incredible touch in the soft passages.Very natural piano sound, tremendous dynamic contrasts. | |
| Recommendation for DAC needed. For instance, take a look at this current discussion.https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/which-dac-benchmark-mytek-audio-mirror-holo-audio-mojo-audio | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification I don't understand why there isn't more discussion of Bel Canto, specifically in this thread and more generally on A'gon. They seem to be doing a lot of things right, and at a number of different price points, unlike some manufacturers. | |

| Soundbars vs Conventional Home Theater Sys I own a 670 which is 36" wide and sits perfectly on top of a low wide rack that holds the video gear. The TV sits on top of the ZVOX. The sound is more than satisfactory. It reminds me of the typical sound in a cinema. Not audiophile, but cine... | |
| Nature of the current used speaker market If you pay the up-front "advertise until it sells" price on A'gon, then unless you're strapped for the cash, there's not much incentive to lower the price. Might and well try waiting it out until someone comes along... | |
