| Do I need a new DAC/streamer. Considering? Given the rest of your equipment, I would definitely entertain a Lumin X-1. I have had the D-2, A-1, U-1 mini and the X-1. you can sell off the your other digital equipment and just use the X-1. I just sold my X-1 because I wanted a Tube DAC to... | |
| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. Appropriate question for me. I just took delivery of a new Lampizator Pacific Dac from Poland and 6 new Helix Power Cords. I still have a Lucas Audio LMDS music server coming from the UK to Arizona. That will finalize my system I hope for the n... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk I had a hum on different brand amplifier and it drove me nuts. I swapped out PC's, plugged them directly into the wall, swapped speaker and RCA cables, changeds tubes and nothing corrected the hum in one speaker. It ended up being a simple loos... | |
| Weiss medea plus and dsp 501 or lampizator golden gate? What's Best Forum will probably provide you more feedback than Audiogon on your subject. I can't speak to Weiss but I do have the Lampizator Pacific. I would say compared to my Lumin X-1 the Lampi is a little bit more on the warmer side. The X-... | |
| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? B&W 8 series ---Just plain plain and boring sounding.Piega Master Line Source 2 --- I so wanted to buy them and then I heard them...ughhh just terribleMagico S3&5 ---- they were just to bright and in your face. I know I would have gotten ... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk In my opinion, there are no giant killer in any integrated amp in the $2.5 - 4k price range. All amps in that range are not end game amps. What you will get from Raven is a tremendous sounding, quality built amp with great customer service and t... | |
| Lumin X1 or U1 + PS Audio DSD DAC I had a Lumin A-1 acting as a transport between an EMM LAB Dac 2V and Laufer Teknik Memory player. I sold all three and went with the Lumin X-1. The sound quality was way better than my previous system and I echo the comment above.One aspect of ... | |
| Streamers with best apps? I have had 4 Lumin players. The app is so easy to use that even me being blind has an easy time with it. | |
| Schumann Resonator MC -- I don't know if my Viking Acoustic Grande Voix Dual Horn speakers are the reason. I suppose I could try the SR's in my Theater Room where I have Tekton Double Impact In Wall speakers to see what the results are there. Mahgist -- I will loo... | |
| Schumann Resonator Having moved my two devices right behind my speakers I did do the A/B test with my spouse in the room. For my small investment of $28 i figured why not try. We listened to 4 artists to conduct this test:Pat Metheny - Guitar JazzMt Joy - Younger ... | |
| Opinions wanted: 10-30K Speakers for Jazz/Folk A little over two years ago, I went on a cross country mission to find new speakers in your price range. Prior to this search, I had Wilson Audio Duette 2's and Sonus Faber Amati Traditin Homage speakers. It is so hard to listen to speakers in v... | |
| DAC/AMP Repair I agree with the above but if you are in the Phoenix area call James at 4803987362. | |
| Projector Power Cords I am having a one foot helix PC made for my projector. | |
| Horn speakers , high efficiency but not “shouty” I have owned Wilson and Sonus Faber and I will easily vote for a horn over either of these speakers. I went on a year long search for Horn speakers and considered many including Charney, Avantgarde, hORN Univesum, Deja Vu, Klipsch, JBL, Aer, BD D... | |
| Schumann Resonator My wife just said to me get those damn things out of our room. I need a decent sleep. A happy wife is a happy life so I am moving them to see if there is any sound improvement tomorrow. |
