| New Rotel Amp Vs Older Bryston, Krell, or McIntosh I owned a Bryston 4B-SST and 7B-SST and also some ST line amps. The new GAN amps from LSA and others are what I would buy for 2K to 3K over the older Bryston amps. I owned the LSA Voyager 350 GAN. Rumor is that they are going to beef up the power ... | |
| KEF Meta Reference 1's? anyboy heard them? It's funny how we all hear things. I owned the Revel Salon1 and heard the Salon2 several times. Whenever I heard the KEF Blade or Thiel CS3.7 I was thinking how much more I was enjoying the music over the Salon 1's. I like the Reference 1 and the... | |
| Anyone catch 7 Myths of Digital at AXPONA? Did you hear the new KRELL KSA-400i at the show? | |
| KEF Meta Reference 1's? anyboy heard them? The TAD ME1 blows away floor standers at the 10K price. At the $15K of the TAD ME1 then I think the ME1 can hang with similarly priced floor standers, especially in a medium sized room. I would want to hear how much closer the new KEF Reference 1 ... | |
| Tuner choice This is the guy who fixes up tuners to sound incredible. ACCUPHASE T-100 (Super Tuner)! | Tuners | Audiogon | |
| Tuner choice I bought 3 tuners back in Oct 2021. A new Magnum Dynalab 108T which is incredible. A used 40-year-old modded Accuphase T2 (I think) that was fixed up by a real tuner expert. It sounds almost as good as the 108T. I also got a 40-year-old Sansu TU9... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @benzman I have something similar to you (previously had CSiB). Now have a CODA 07x preamp | CODA #8 amp | Musetec 005 | RAAL SR1a headphones. I love this combo. It is not easy to make the SR1a reach it’s full potential with a 2-channel amp (I kno... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Someone once said, there are fools and then there are damn fools! Yup | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC You can ship the unit back to China by USPS. I sent my Gustard X26 Pro back to China for replacement, and it cost me $116. The 005 is a bi heavier so the cost will be more. Though this was all before the Russian invasion and transport costs were l... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I have not been able to discern any difference with my power cords on any of my gear. I plug my cords into a Torus RM 15 and likely have good power coming into the house. I use the stock 005 cord on the 005. I tried a few other not so exotic powe... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Another, sort of affordable gear combo is the following: Schitt Freya+ preamp (now sold) Musetec 005 Benchmark AHB2 amp I was amazed at how good this combo was on both my SR1a headphones and KEF LS50 speakers. When I replaced the 005 with the ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @sirnui I bough the DAC3 HGC 2 times and the DAC3B 2 times. I think each time was to raise funds for something else. Anyways, I am not selling the DAC3B I have left. My feeling is that the HPA4 or LA4 would be incredible with the 005. I have not ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC I prefer the 005 over the DAC3B in almost all cases. However, if I had very warm speaker and other warm electronics then I could see myself going with the DAC3 over the 005. I recently demoed a RAAL VM-1a tube headphone amp with the RAAL SR1a hea... | |
| Need some help- Speaker choice for Schiit Aegir+ Freya+ The KEF LS50 META is something to consider for your room. I used an older LS50 (not META) with a Freya+ and Benchmark AHB2 and it was really good. I also added a KEF KC62 sub ($1500) and it works so nicely with the Freya+. In your room that combo ... | |
| new headphones recommendation? grado gs3000e or… Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A | Page 327 | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org Something to consider at the 2-4K price range. A lot of comparisons with all the TOTL headphones. I use a 2-channel amp to drive them and sometimes a $400... |
