| Beryllium Tweets @kijanki I wonder where the new Yamaha NS5000 driver material fits into that list. Yamaha was the first to use Berylliumin in the 1970's. They are saying that their new material is better than Beryllium. | |
| Wisdom of buying high priced digital gear (given new advancements underway) I paid $1560 last month for a new Benchmark DAC3B. I was thinking this would be a good backup DAC or a DAC for the second headphone system I am also building. Well it turned out that the DAC3B sounds extremely good to my ears and the thoughts of ... | |

| GREAT NEWS! The Coda Technology new #16 amplifier will arrive this week Back in Jan or Feb 2020 I was PMing someone here who had bought the AHB2 and also the CODA # 15.5. The CODA was bought just before the #16 came out. It is supposed to have all the same circuitry as the #16 except for a smaller power supply. Last w... | |
| GREAT NEWS! The Coda Technology new #16 amplifier will arrive this week I have the spec sheets for both the CODA #8 and #16 from CODA. If someone can point me to a shared online location to upload, I can do so. A bit ridiculous that info is not available on the CODA web site however, the company is good at returning e... | |
| Between three different amps for Paradigm Personas I may get the 3F (in a funky orange colour) for my office. Almost at the point of flipping a coin on the speaker choice. The other choice is the Yamaha NS 5000, everyone tells me NOT to get the Yamaha because it is too powerful for my room. I thin... | |

| A warm DAC? James Tanner, big cheese at Bryston, is quoted on the Bryston AudioCircle forum that the BDA-2 and BDA-3 sound identical except for the additional connectivity options on the 3. Some owners said he was wrong. I will go with Tanners judgement on th... | |
| Compatible Speakers for a Coda The Paradigm Persona line would match well with the CODA. The Persona's Beryllium tweeter and midrange drivers would be nicely served by the warm CODA. | |
| Preview: CODA Technologies new generation number#8 Stereo Amplifier @smodtactical Take a look at @soundhound CODA #15.5 that is upgraded to almost #16 level. He has it on sale on USAudiomart. Same price as a new #8.BTW - I decided to pair the CODA #16 with my Benchmark HPA4 preamp. I think it will be a nice blend ... | |

| Denafrips Terminator reliability? The SNR is 127 db. If it was 137 that would be quieter than my preamp. Nevertheless, 127 db is pretty good. https://www.denafrips.com/specs-terminator-plus This unit is now the same price as the AudioByte VOX stack, VOX | ZAP | HUB. Love to have ... | |
| Bryston 4B3 or 14B3 ? I just bought a Bryston headphone amp and owned about 5 other 2 channel Bryston amps. I would not pair Bryston with any speaker with Beryllium. Not sure if this Focal has Be. | |
| Lumin T2 burn in time? @rossb You would think Lumin would have figured out to pre-burn the units before shipping. | |
| Roon: is it just a pretty face for browsing music? You can also run DSP, Convolution files, music recommendations (not a new thing but it works great on ROON), lyrics for some karaoke, and a pretty interface. |
