| Update on Audiogon Member Almarg Thanks for the update, David. This is crushing news. Everyone who has been around here for any length of time knows what Al has meant to this forum and what a friend he has been to countless audiophiles for such a long time. I never had the pleasu... | |
| Ry Cooder & V.M. Bhatt - A Meeting By The River IS AMAZING! Agreed. For another sonic treat, take a listen to Cooder's Paris, Texas soundtrack. | |
| Power Cord Upgrade for Inakustik 3500P? @rdoc We were typing our posts at the same time. Thanks for your comments on the 2404. That one is certainly on my short list and would obviously seem to be a great match. | |
| Power Cord Upgrade for Inakustik 3500P? It's a 2502, which I believe is the cord being shipped with the unit these days.If folks have experiences with the 2404, that would certainly be welcome. But I am also wondering if anyone's tried higher end cables from Shunyata, Synergistic Resear... | |

| Best DAC for around $2,500 or less You might be able to snag a used Lampizator Amber 3 in your price range. Otherwise, the Audio Mirror Tubadour is an excellent suggestion. I had them both, and they are very close in performance. | |
| Audio envy cables I bought half a dozen Audio Envy power cords about six months ago on a whim, replacing cords that cost much, much more--like five or six times more--and I've been very pleased with them. Very natural and uncolored. The music just flows through the... | |
| What are the top 3 USB cables being used today in reference systems? +1 on the Final Touch Audio Callisto. In my system, it made a significant difference, standing head and shoulders above at least eight or ten other contenders, several already mentioned in this thread. | |
| Need help picking a streaming integrated amp In that price range, a Jolida or Rogue might be the ticket. Maybe a PrimaLuna. | |
| Separates or Integrated? What makes more sense? Hard to make recommendations without knowing your speakers but if they are reasonably efficient, the Don Sachs 6SN7 preamp and KT88 amp for around $6K combined is an incredible value. Spend the extra $4K on music. | |
| Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? If you can stretch your budget just a touch, you may find a Line Magnetic 508ia integrated. I can't think of anything in your price range I'd prefer. The Don Sachs and Supratek recommendations are good, but out of your budget for an amp and a prea... | |
