| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? I was on a similar journey, Naim streamer/DAC to dCS Bartok with Oppo 205 Modwright DAC as an option, then to a dCS Vivaldi Stack, and very happily to a Grimm MU1 streamer/storage/upsampler with a Lampizator Pacific DAC. You might want the GG2 ove... | |
| Time clock sync devices + 1 Lordmelton. I had the Word Clock when I had my dCS Vivaldi stack and turning it on and off within the system enhanced the room ambiance significantly, making my system sound more lifelike. Recently I added a 10Mhz Afterdark clock to my Etherre... | |
| Survey on Cost of Loudspeakers Supported On Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums Wilson Sasha 2s on concrete. Sitting 210 pounds of speaker (who's designers pained over resonances) on springs went against everything I thought I knew about isolation, but my ears told me that I should keep the Podiums. | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others Sorry i hit enter without editing my comments. The three panels were GIK. The point at the end was that I ordered black Tube traps and they integrate well with my black speakers/grills/subs. Rather than the off white units that tend to stand out a... | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others I ordered three 6 inch by 2 foot wide and 4 feet tall dual use for my rear wall. The order took a couple of months but they were on time within their estimated time. Packaging was poor. I used a black marker to touch up some light damage. SQ chan... | |
| Is High End Audio catchin' up with you all? Shout out to flatblackround! I'm 6'7" and have always hated running, workouts, and all the other reindeer games. I am coordinatized but never saw the point of putting myself through the misery. I have a theory that tall people on average don't li... | |
| Rouge Audio RP-7 I bought a RP 7 new in 2019 and loved it. I concur with the positive comments written above. I rolled the tubes which is super in-expensive as you can roll two of the four and get 80% of the change with just two of the four tubes. This allows you ... | |
| Do I really need an " Audio Grade Network Switch "? I have listened to the Ether REGEN at length, then brought in other audiophiles to listen to my dCS Vivaldi stack and more recently to my preferred combo of a Grimm MU1 (streamer/Roon Core/storage device) and a Lampizator Pacific DAC. I/we listene... | |
| Townshend Audio speaker podiums...three ways to install Yes, I bought the Gaia's for my Sasha 2s and liked them. I especially like their form factor on my soft marble floor and they look great. I tried the Podiums thinking that with the return policy and Miller finding good results, why not. The Podium... | |
| NORDOST SORT FUT VS. ISOACOUSTICS GAIA Townshend Podiums were better than the Gaias under my Sasha 2s, but I didn't try Nordost. | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling I was able to run fiber alongside CAT6 from my Google fiber entry switch to my audio room. I have an Ethergen at the system room which can take either a fiber or CAT input. This allows me to move between fiber and CAT very simply. At first I didn'... | |
| Are Fall Sales Leveling Out in the Used Market? That is totally me! I have this feeling like financial conditions are going to go through big changes. I want to get my system the way I want it ASAP. Could be entirely wrong, it's just how I'm feeling. | |
| ghentaudio Ethernet cable review-wow-90 bucks My upsampler is in for repair so I'm down for a week. You want to borrow a couple of my ethernet cables to see what happens, then ship them back? | |
| Upgraded from Parasound Halo Integrated to Modwright KWA 100 SE I bought a used Modwright LS 300 Reference Line stage and I absolutely love it. Build quality is outstanding. Soundstage, volume control and detail are outstanding. I rolled in NOS Mazda rectifiers and Amperex 7803 USN tubes. In the past 3 years ... | |
| questions for georgehifi and others about powering my Wilson Sasha2s Someone brought to my attention the Doshi 180M V3s that were shown with Sasha 2s (and other Wilsons) at multiple audio shows. a few years back. Does anyone have an informed opinion on this combo? |
