| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp @fthompson251 Thanks for this information. I have a BAT VK-80 preamp on order, but it's been on backorder for 2 months now. Not sure I want to wait much longer and am looking at other options. | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp @lynn_olson Obviously but I was asking people who recently ordered the preamp. Not looking for exact timelines. | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp From the time of the order how long does it take to receive the Raven Preamp? Also is the credit card immediately charged the full amount if there is a backorder? | |
| Amps that don’t impersonate space heaters. @sls883 Yeah, I've been to his office a couple of times and bought my amp directly from him. He gave me a good deal since we didn't have any Coda dealers in this area. Had some long talks with him. Very interesting guy with some great stories. | |
| Amps that don’t impersonate space heaters. @sls883 I have the same version 1 amp. The reason it's so cool is because it has the heats sinks to cool a 400-watt amp (8 ohm) version 3. This is one of the reasons I bought it plus the fact Coda is a 15-minute drive from my house and I can have ... | |
| Magnepans VS MartinLogan for detail and sound staging Unfortunately to get a new Magnepan with a ribbon tweeter you need to move up to the 2.7i. Unfortunately, way too big of a speaker for my room. I wish Magnepan would make a smaller speaker with a ribbon tweeter. I currently have LRS+ but because o... | |
| Electrostatics and tubes @russ69 from what I'm reading their speakers aren't really reliable and customer service with this company is severely lacking. | |
| Solo streamer @aldnorab The N200 should be a better streamer than the streamer in the A200. These units are basically the same price and the A200 has a DAC also. They had to cut some corners. | |
| Your thoughts on best audiophile speakers in $10,000 neighborhood? @mglik I know this is an older thread but you claimed to have already purchased the Quad ESL-2812X in April yet even today the X version of this speaker is not available and has not even been announced by Quad yet. I have spoken to the distributer... | |
| I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do? @incorrigable Can you explain this belief in greater detail? | |
| Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions Aren't the latest Harbeth 40.x speakers like twice the price of the Borresen X3 speakers? Is this even a fair comparison? | |
| Solo streamer Good choice! I also have an N200. I was tired of the constant upgrade game and wanted to get more of an end game streamer. I didn't care about the OCXO of the N20 since it wouldn't benefit me. I only stream USB. | |
| Preamp or DAC I have a similar type of system. Coda #8 amp, Holo Audio May KTE DAC, Holo Audio Serene KTE preamp and Aurender N200. I also have dual REL subs. I ordered a new BAT VK-80 tube preamp a few days ago. I’m also trying to integrate some tubes into my ... | |
| Vibration Control I saw a demo at AXPONA years ago with a company selling antivibration products and platforms. They had an A/B switch of some kind hooked up that let you do comparisons. This was not a demo of turntables. I was shocked that I did actually hear a di... | |
| A Better Way to Buy Gear - Help Needed I would NEVER do PayPal Friends and Family with an unknown person! Even if it was someone I know I would have to trust them. You are on the losing side if anything goes wrong, and the protection is all one-sided. |
