| Streaming/DAC Upgrade I bought that Auralic G2.1 deal and I’m quite happy. It’s my third Auralic streamer/dac; the other two (Aries Mini + S-Booster LPS and an original Altair) are still playing in secondary systems. I love being able to control all three from my iPhon... | |
| Discerning a difference between streamers is difficult...only me or common for all? I'm not sure my experience will be all that helpful but here goes. I have three Auralic streamers in three different systems: an Aries Mini plus S-Booster LPS, an original Altair, and an Altair G2.1. These were purchased over the course of some se... | |
| Phono stage for second system If patient you can find a late generation K&K Maxxed Out on the used market. Especially with the optional silver Lundahl LL1931 internal SUTs, it will outperform most at twice its list price of $4500 new. I got one for $1800 shipped a few mont... | |
| Furutech Nanoflux speaker cables No doubt its comforting when your ears conform to your multimeter and oscilloscope. | |
| Furutech Nanoflux speaker cables Extrapolating from Furutech balanced ICs like Reference III, which cannot be reversed for obvious reasons, the filter would go at the source end, as @roxy54 said. | |
| Deciphering Integrated Specs - Step Up Matching @mulveling, great post. | |
| Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me Congrats! I’m sure they will sound terrific. I owned pre-Alnico Omegas years ago; they were beautifully made and exceptionally coherent with excellent presence, if a bit bass-shy. No doubt the Alnicos are much better, esp with the sub. I’ve actual... | |
| Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me I’m leaning pretty heavily towards a used pair of the Tablette 10, maybe the Sig version. The Devores are intriguing but probably more than I care to spend on this little system. | |
| Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me @grislybutter, wow, that's great! Thanks! | |
| Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me This thread has spurred me to think about finding some little bookshelf speakers to use in my gym/shop. My needs aren’t much different from the OP’s, so I hope I’m not hijacking the thread. The speakers must be: less than 12-in high, because they’... | |
| Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me +4 on the P3ESR. It’s an excellent sounding little speaker and IMO beautiful in Rosewood. It is not exactly balanced, having a bump in the lower midbase, but that bump would work for you as a desktop speaker, supplying a pleasing low end that rema... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @audio_rd_uk, thanks for following up on the 12-in Agile. Your rig looks sharp in the vid. So it seems you found the 12 to be slightly more relaxed and less dynamic that the 9.5, which is not unusual. I have 12 and 9 Graham Phantoms (III and Supre... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @audio_rd_uk, my mistake. I appreciate the clarification on slight variances. @neonknight, great to hear how satisfying this new set up is. That’s what we’re all after. | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @dover, that's really interesting. Thank you. @mijostyn, it's hard to believe you ever nap! | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @audio_rd_uk : Thank you for your extensive comments on VTA, which I think were directed at me rather than @neonknight, since I opened the can of well-worn worms on adjusting VTA by asking about the dial on the Agile. I certainly appreciate the ri... |
