| Center placed equipment stands @davekayc If you are asking about how I play music, it is mostly streaming from 1 of my computers via a Sonore microRendu into the Peachtree. I also have a FM tuner and SACD player hooked up onto the integrated.The types of music varies upon mood.... | |

| Center placed equipment stands @davekayc Thanks for the time to write up that suggestion. Your suggestion was something I never contemplated. I will have to let it percolate in the brain. Do you have any opinion of a bookshelf with books as a sound absorber in-between the spea... | |
| Wait- OMG! The song is really about...? What I find amusing is your take on George Harrison's art." Harrison wrote "My Sweet Lord" in praise of the Hindu god Krishna,[1] while intending the lyrics as a call to abandon religious sectarianism through his blending of the Hebrew word halle... | |
| Anthem STR or Lyngdorf TDAI 2170? http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/anthem-str-preamplifier-and-str-power-amplifier/ How appropriate that this review shows upJust read a lot of words but not really saying much, | |
| Anthem STR or Lyngdorf TDAI 2170? @mike_in_nc The question I asked Anthem was whether they supported the Balanced AES48 standard. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/internally-balanced-cables-supporting-aes48-standard I am assuming from your statement that the 25' XLR's you... | |
| Center placed equipment stands https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/7605 I am planning on adding some bigger speakers to the room shown in the above URL. I have a 1 foot deep and 72" long oak bookshelf, which is visible in one of the photos of the interior of my closet.I was wo... | |
| Internally Balanced cables supporting AES48 Standard It was Atmasphere’s comments to me on some thread about component placement (he keeps his gear far from the speakers) that led me to look into AES48 compliant gear. I do have some experience with AES48 gear, which was the Benchmark DAC3 HGC and th... | |
| Integrated amp for Thiel 3.7's What about the Hegel 390 or 590. I saw a 590 used for $8K. Hegel sounds good with KEF, I think it would work great with the Thiel. I have owned Thiel and KEF and heard the Hegel 360 and also mono blocks with KEF Blades. | |
| Streamer Recommendation If I had a Lumin X1 I would first spend the $200 to buy this https://www.ui.com/unifi-switching/unifi-switch-8-150w/ to see if Fiber optical is actually noiseless. The X1 is already ROON READY so this could potentially be the simplest and cleanes... | |

| Anthem STR or Lyngdorf TDAI 2170? Another extra data point for anyone interested and a important one for me since I plan on running very long internally balanced XLR interconnects between the preamp + amp. Not sure about the Anthem because they did not get back to me.Halloyes – w... | |
| A visit to the (Audio) Doctor Being in retail is tough especially with the yahoo’s on the internet being able to say anything about a business. Take a look at the following retail extortion site for what Upscale Audio deals with. I like the way these guys are not taking it lyi... | |
| Qobuz Special Offer I hope I have some time to do some head to head comparisons with Tidal and Qobuz. I think the first disc will be Lux Prima by Karen O and Danger Mouse. I heard the high-res version on Qobuz today and the sound seemed almost like a good SACD. It wi... | |
| need recommendations for standmount speakers Your amp and DAC are not warm at all. I owned both and was happy using them with KEF LS50, though a warmer speaker may have been even better. When I recently went to demo some Luxman amps they used some Harbeths and I thought the Harbeths would be... |
