| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Not sure if I have vast experience, just recent experience. I placed a 50% deposit on the LRS+ today. I may get lucky and get the LRS+ this week, otherwise, maybe another 3 months of waiting. I emailed Maga Risers earlier today and will order a s... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta I have put up my Lumin X1 up for sale if anyone with the GAN1 is interested. I may trade it in tomorrow if I get a good offer. I am going to upgrade that DAC to the Playback Designs and the Playback Designs Stream-IF gives me the streaming functio... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta Been listening some more to the modded GAN1 and my KEF LS50 Meta. Still not at the uber sonic levels of the CODA #16 gear but damn this is still some fine sound. Next month, I will be buying my Livingroom speaker, the Yamaha NS5000, and I think I ... | |
| Looking for a great set of Wired Headphones I had a Meze Empy at $3K and I thought it was rather good. There is something called the Meze 99 Classic that is supposed to be along the lines of the Empy. The Classic is $300. All | Meze Audio - Sound. Comfort. Design. True high-end. | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta I had a Playback Designs Stream-IF ($2K) still in my office for the last 3 months and put it into my system yesterday. I noticed that it had a COAX stream output, so I wanted to try it on my modded GAN1. I first installed the ASIO driver from Play... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @campoly I did read that FAQ and also asked Magnepan a question about my room (no response yet). Whatever the case I am going to buy it and give it a try. Reading here about the popularity of the LRS+ makes it an easy resale. Though I think it wil... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Thanks for the feedback. I am going to give it a try. One reason I want to do this is because I was reading a review of my RAAL CA-1a headphones, and the reviewer stated that it sounded like a Maggie without the room issues. I have both the RAAL S... | |
| Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k Tonight, I setup my Playback Designs Stream-IF streamer. It cost me $2K and was sitting under my office desk for the past 3 months. The plan is to buy the DREAM DAC pretty soon and use the Plink on the streamer to the DREAM DAC. Today I wanted to... | |
| Bringing Bryston 4B back to 1997 new. I owned the BP20 and also owned Bryston amps in the 1990’s. I also had a Thiel SCS4 monitor with a Bryston 7B-sst and I think a BAT VK-42SE preamp (warm). The combo of the BP20 + Bryston 1997 + Thiel would be too bright for my ears. I would get a... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend The new Lumin U2 seems to be using the same streamer as in the Lumin X1. That streamer is pretty amazing. The settings that you have access to is incredible. I use it for both analog duty and to stream digital to my PeachTree GAN1 via SPDIF (along... | |
| Help me upgrade my beginner system! At one time I compared the preamp + amp sections of the Peachtree Nova 150. I had this unit for about 3 years. I forgot how I did the separation of the different parts to test, but I know I did do that and came to the following conclusions: - the... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Will the LRS+ fit into a 12 x 11 x 9 treated room? Office System | Virtual Listening Room (audiogon.com) |
