| Horn speakers , high efficiency but not “shouty” Congrats -- I guess. Are you referring to the speakers or the 300B amp? Also, it is hard to make judgements right out of the gate. Tell us more after at least 50 hours of run time. | |
| Poor grammar is disappointing and decidedly distracting in formal audio reviews. I am functionally blind and as a result most of the time I resort to voice activation. Many times it does not type what I say. Therefore, if you see comments from willgolf, know that I barely can see what I type. So if there are mistakes get ov... | |
| Music Servers, Do They Matter? LalitkWhen I got my Pacific it was replacing a Lumin X-1 which I loved. IMO, there was not much of a difference in performance between the X-1 and the Pacific. That is why I made the comment that I probably didn't need to buy the most expensive ... | |
| Music Servers, Do They Matter? I received my Lucas Audio LDMS Music Server. Does it make a difference? I would not have believed it until I heard it. I have a $30k Lampi Pacific Dac and I thought my sound was great. That is until I started up the LDMS. The sound quality, t... | |
| Lumin Ap on Lumin players - not so good? I have had 4 different Lumin Players over the last 7 years and love the Lumin App. It is easy to use. | |
| NPS-1260 Connection fluid I have used Perfect Path Technology Graphite and the 1260 and both products produce great results in soundstage and clarity. | |
| The SHOW 2021 Long Beach, CA - Anyone going? I was going to go but looked at the list of exhibitors and it is a rather weak line-up so I am not going to go. | |
| Gryphon Diable 300 DAC vs. Lumin X1 DAC I can't speak to Gryphon but I have had 4 different Lumin Dac's including the X-1. I think the Lumin X-1 is the best sounding DAC under $19k. I also love the simplicity of the APP and accessibility to Tidal and Qobuz. I am really anxious to hea... | |
| Who here has a Raven amplifier and what speakers do you have paired with it @james1911 --if you do not have a lot of experience with audio components then you did a great job starting off. Some low cost things you can do in addition to what Millercarbon said....SR orange fuse / duplex, 1260 contact enhancer and tube swap... | |
| To horn or not to horn @larryi i went to Deja Vu in San Diego as part of my horn speakers search and even had them provide me a few designs. I liked them but super happy with my Viking Acoustic Grande Voix's | |
| To horn or not to horn @larryjWhat was the name of the horn shop that made those speakers? | |
| Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed? @b_limo Did you talk to Raven about changing your power tubes? I went from KT 88's to KT 150's on my Reflection to increase the power. | |
| Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed? My Raven Reflection did not give off much heat. | |
| Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed? arafit"A friend of mine recently switched from Blackhawk MK3 to Qualiton A50i. According to him, there is no comparison. The Qualiton is at an entirely different level".Your post intrigued me. You are right there is no comparison. Class A vs A/B... | |
| Any audiophiles in Israel or Europe here? You probably don't want to hear this but I would sell everything and start from scratch. What's Best Audio Forum puts Audiogon to shame. It is a great place to research products and is heavily influenced by Europeans. Poland has some some great... |
