| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? @calvinj I have to agree at least on Audiogon. I attended the launch of the Lampi Horizon DAC in Feb 2022. After the launch, I posted my review of what I heard. The hate and negative comments caused me to ask Audiogon to take down the thread ... | |
| 聖HIJIRI Users thread @kclone So now that you experienced the Takumi....what's next? LOL | |
| Have you found your "End-Game" speakers yet? I have. And it feels so good!!! Aries Cerat Aurora speakers are my end game and final speaker purchase after going down the B&W, Wilson, Sonus Faber and Vliking route. I should receive them in the next 4o days from Greece. | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread @tommylion Well, I did go crazy. I ordered the QSA Lanedri cables including: Ultimatum Infinity Speaker Cables Ultimatum Infinity 20amp Power cord Gamma Infinity Power Cords Gamma Infinity BNC cable 2 Gamma Infinity speaker cable 1 Ultima... | |
| Horns with good timbre and tonality? Op Did I miss what your budget is for your horn speakers? That makes a big difference in what we may recommend. I went through a whole year process which I chronicled on Audiogon and WBF before buying my horn speakers. i love them. | |
| DAC DIRECT IN TO AMPLIFIER OR TO PREAMPLIFIER I had Canary Audio 300B Mono amps with a Canary 1800 Dual Preamp. I had a Lampizator Pacific DAC. People kept telling me I should try the Pacific direct to the 300B's but I wouldn't. Then one day, just for the hell of it I did try going DAC to... | |
| Horn speakers with Imaging? Does everyone have the same definition of imaging? In audio terms, what doe that word mean? | |
| QSA FUSES I am a big QSA fan. I would forget the LPS. Put the best one you can afford in the Dac followed by the amp. Another suggestion is to go with a QSA Jitter plug. I had great results with a used crystal silver QSA Jitter plug that I used at the e... | |
| Best USB cable upgrade for around $1000 Op Did you buy a new USB cable yet? I had the FTA Callisto. It was a very good cable and then upgraded to the FTA Sinope for my Lampi Horizon DAC. Send me a private email and I can explain better. I have since gone to a SPDIF cable ilo of USB... | |
| What new gear have you just bought? $39k worth of QSA Lanedrie cables and cords and one Silver Horn outlet. | |
| Audio / Stereo Rack Call Paul at Adona. Great racks and custom to your needs. They hold two Aries Cerat Mono amps at 176 lbs a piece with ease. I then was able to sell of all of my isolation pods. Great value for the money! | |
| Who has been an "Insider" with Audiogon? I had it for a year. I got absolutely nothing our of it. Even the Bluebook was not helpful. But that was just my experience. | |
| Cable elevators So, if cables touch or lay on each other is that considered to be an audiophile no no? What is the difference between carpet, porcelain tile or wood floor or wood blocks? The juice is what is inside the cable not outside the cable. So how does ... | |
| Does it make sense to "ignore low ball offers"? If the offer was a total insult I ignore it. However, for the most part, I will counter. What really pisses me off is when I counter and they accept and then they say I will send the money after my check clears in two days and then they go dark.... | |
| Raven Osprey Sonics But With More Power I would still talk to Dave at Raven and ask him about the new MK4 Reflection. Maybe you can do a trade. I used to own the MK3 Reflection in a room the size of 45''L x 32'W with 20'H ceilings. My Reflection at 65wpc drove that room effortlessly... |
