| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? I am interested in @ricevs new mod. His Voyager mod was great, substantial to my ears over stock. | |
| Better sound on rainy days? I do hear all the frogs singing along to my music when it rains. Sort of an enhanced surround sound. I wonder what the frogs are doing in the 360 days it does not rain in my area. | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? I was a little harsh on the CODA 07x preamp last night. I had been using it in my office because I needed the dual XLR outputs for my 2 amps, a CODA #8 and the KRELL 175XD. I always felt the Benchmark LA4 was better suited for my tastes with those... | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? @markmuse I though I would add one more post since you once owned the Benchmark LA4 preamp. I am now listening to the LA4 connected to my KRELL 175XD and into my RAAL SR1a headphones. These phones are brutal if the signal is bad. Well what I am he... | |
| Just my observation - seems like there is less listed on AG I have sold 13 items on USAM in the last 2 years, nothing here anymore. | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? @markmuse I did not want to sell the CODA #8 which I was using as a headphone amp for my RAAL SR1a. However, today I put in an order for the RAAL VM-1a. That is a $7K after tax amp and I needed to sell the CODA #8 to raise the funds. The VM-1a is ... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @benzman Thanks for the update, the cost of oil must have caused the increase in shipping. I am looking for a black 005. In fact I need to get one soon since I bought my ultimate headphone amp this afternoon and will likely use my Benchmark DAC3B ... | |
| GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager? @markmuse I had the Voyager 350 and also had it modded by EVS. After the mods I thought the Voyager was similar to my Benchmark AHB2 but with more power. It was super clean and quiet, though It lacked the bass power of my CODA #8. However, it soun... | |
| Amps for KEF Blade 2 The amp I am looking at if I ever get space for the Blades is the new KRELL KSA-400i. I never heard it and it is very expensive. However, I own the KRELL XD175 and this new amp is priced 5x more than my amp, has great power, and the same plus more... | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @benzman Ship it from USPS. It should be half that price. I did a replacement back to China with USPS and it went perfectly (a Gustard X26 Pro). What color is the 005 you have. I sold my CODA #8 amp today and was planning on buying a second 005, ... | |
| KEF Blade 2 as replacement for Reference 107/2 @dbphd Blades around Santa Barbara are limited. The best bet would be the next Los Angeles show when the Blade Meta should show up. Excel Audio in Newport Beach had a pair of Blades a few years ago but I think they are sold now. Wait a year a... | |
| Axpona 2022 The new KRELL KSA-400i amp has me very interested about spending more than I can afford. I have the KRELL Duo 175XD (love them). These new amps are supposed to be the next level up from my amp. | |
| 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? |
