| Seeking Bookshelf Recommendations I have a pair of Sonus Faber Sonetto II's paired with a McIntosh in my family room. This is a second system paired with B&W surrounds in the walls. First of all, if you are looking for wide soundstage these will fit that requirement. They a... | |
| What to change in my system Invest in a previously owned streamer/dac. Check out the T2 or T3 by Lumin. That will improve your sound. | |
| 15k for streamer and dac....how much on each? Lots of great options in the price range. My best advice, based on my experience, would be to go with separate dac and streamer. If you are going with Roon I recommend and Dac that has Roon incorporated. For my first two iterations I went wit... | |

| Going Tubing I had an all SS system with McIntosh 1.2 kWh mono's and went out and demoed several different amp and preamp combo's with new Wilson speakers I was going to acquire. After 1 1/2 years of looking and listening I found that the best sounding combin... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. @calvinj I own the Grimm MU1as my streamer and who is also a Nagra dealer. You may actually want to demo the new MU2 which is a dac/streamer/roon endpoint all in one. I run Roon through my whole house via the MU! and it is flawless. Having wo... | |
| What the Best Dac have you heard or owned. How could you tell it was that good. When I went to upgrade my dac I listened and demoed in my system as much as I could. After narrowing it down to the MSB Reference with separate power supply and the Nagra Tube Dac with separate power supply I ended up purchasing the Nagra. If your... | |
| Borresen Loudspeakers Good point @rsf507 !! | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal I have both Qobuz and Tidal. For me, on my system I find the sound on Qobuz to be better; however, I do use both via Roon. I will add that I am very impressed with the latest update that Qobuz did just a few weeks ago allowing for easy import of ... | |
| Borresen Loudspeakers Of course my speakers arrived @nextlevelhifi yesterday and I am heading out on vacation today so I’ll have to wait a week. Would have been great to have let them play for a week while I was out of town. | |

| Borresen Loudspeakers @gandalf I think mine arrive at the dealer this week or next. I'm like you, too far away so will need them shipped here. Let me know how it goes with your set up. | |
| How would you spend my next $5K? I think I would go for the extra S812. I have a pair and they are great in a stereo setting. | |
| Audience vs Audioquest I have both Audioquest and Audience. I have more Audioquest (mostly Tornado) but for my best connections I have Front Row Audience. I also have some Black Cat and Transparent Reference in my system as well. Based on my equipment, I have tried to g... |
