| An audio rack that really does make a difference. I also recently got a customized Timbernation rack. It looks good, is sturdy, and does what I need. However, I do not think it is really meant for vibration isolation. Something I really have no desire to spend money on. I have a SACD player. DAC,... | |

| Beginning of a new journey... The Empy in stock form is laid back and not ideal for me. Adding the WyWire Platinum XLR cable was what made the sound much more detailed and really perfect for my headphone needs. Since I have a toddler that goes to sleep relatively early the hea... | |
| Thiel Owners @yabe1951 That is the correct way to unbox them. I helped pack my 3.7s from the previous owner and also unpack them at home.Even though the speakers are not really that heavy for speakers I recommend you get some help to carry them some distance. ... | |
| Thiel Owners I have a CODA dealer 100km from me (so very close). They also said they allow home demos of their gear. I may have a listen once COVID is taken down. The thing that intrigues me on the #16 over the #8 is not the Class A, it is the SNR of 130 vs 11... | |

| What is Floyd Toole saying about extra amplifier power and headroom? @diamonddupree I was referring to the MiniDSP UMIK-1 microphone and not any DAC. This mic is tightly integrated with the REW software. @diamonddupree Get the miniDSP UMIK-1 microphone for $100. Then download on a Windows 10 computer REW software.... | |

The internet is a great equalizer for me on this regard.... |
