| What are you streaming tonight? @n80 An earlier thread on Tash. Some links on there for her live performances.https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/tash-sultanaI demoed the Magico A3 and $20K Mark Levinson amp and preamp with Tash's Blackbird. Impressive sound. | |
| Anyone going to the 2019 "The Show?" I found it interesting that the Los Angeles Audio Society had an event the same weekend as this show. Seemed a little classless in my opinion and left a bad perception of the society on me.👉👉👉COMING SUNDAY, JUNE 9, 2-5PM ... THE LA&OC AUDIO SO... | |
| Which would you choose; Pass 250.8, arc 75SE or luxman m900u? @erik_squires I already have the GIK acoustics treatments and they transformed my room in an incredibly positive way. However, I was trying to be audacious and put in a big floor stander into my very small room. Thus the investigation into DSP pre... | |
| Monoblock suggestions to compare to SimAudio Moon Neo 400M? How come you are not considering the BHK amp? Wouldn't that give you the best synergy with the preamp? | |
| New Santana, Lowest Dynamic Range Ever I just listened to AFRICA SPEAKS and it is going into my library. I do like it but can sense that the recording is too hot. | |
| Ayre QX-5 Twenty steaming performance @dbphd https://www.sonore.us/systemoptique.html Take a look at the optical network. The optical cable is supposed to eliminate noise, unlike regular Ethernet. I am going to set up an optical network next and either buy a DAC with an optical inp... | |
| KEF LS50 or Harbeth P3ESR for desktop system? On Wed I had some time to kill in Los Angeles so I went to hear some gear I am about to buy, specifically Luxman m900u amp and I was deciding on the c900u amp.First thing I did was wait for the dealer to finish with another customer. So he gave me... | |
| DAC + Preamp + Room Correction, NAD C658 / MiniDSP SHD / ? No streaming but other features are there.https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9ea13-anthem-str-preamplifier-dac-solid-state | |
| KEF LS50 or Harbeth P3ESR for desktop system? @bilitz I listen to the KEF LS50 all day in my home office with a Peachtree Nova 150 class D integrated. I have no fatigue and I am easily susceptible to fatigue from bad sound. I need to acoustically treat my room, because it is small, but any sp... | |
| Ethernet Capable DACs I just did a search and came across a thread I started regarding Ethernet capable DACs. It looks like this is becoming more of a common thing. However, it looks like wired Ethernet is not the best choice in many DACs that offer it.It seems that SF... | |
| Which would you choose; Pass 250.8, arc 75SE or luxman m900u? I went yesterday and listened to the Luxman m900u amp and c900u preamp. The reason for this second visit to the dealer (Excel Audio in Newport Beach CA) was to determine if I needed to get the c900u preamp or if a lesser preamp with a DAC and room... | |
| which network streamer without DAC? Have you looked at the capabilities of the Sonare opticalModule. I am learning about this now and it seems like something to understand before buying the units mentioned above. https://www.sonore.us/systemoptique.html | |
| Anyone going to the 2019 "The Show?" @steakster The Pacific Surfliner is nice.I have taken it down to San Diego.@tablejockey Last month I made it down to Newport area to hear the Luxman 509x. I had about 10 minutes time window to listen to the Luxman m900u+c900u combo to escape out ... | |
| Anyone going to the 2019 "The Show?" Debating whether to make the 2 hour drive. | |
| What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard? @dpac996 You are a lot smarter than me. I went to audition the 509x and liked it a lot. The c900+m900u were both sitting there unused and I gave into weakness and asked to switch the speaker cables onto the separates. Big mistake for my financial ... |
