| What internet stations do you listen to enrich your musical mind? If you are still in LA area, turn of KCRW.com on FM. Great DJ's who play be what is inspiring them that day. They also have great commentary on the music that is played. It took me a while to realize that this is a world-famous station. I listen ... | |
| The revolution has begun! @tweak1 Sorry to hear about that mishap. That was a very good amp. I have mishaps like this with my audio cables because I am always tinkering with placement and other gear combos. I also keep my audio stand as far away from the speakers as possi... | |
| 2023 Audio System Wish List Baby steps with a new KEF Blade Meta 2 driven by the single box Peachtree GAN1 (amp arriving this week). In late 2023 or 2024 I hope to get a bigger amp and another Benchmark LA4 preamp for these speakers. It's been a decade of waiting to finally ... | |
| Which integrated for Wilson Sabrina's I would get a KRELL K-300i integrated for those Wilson’s. One unit, plug in your Ethernet and done. The internal DAC is as good as all internal DACs (so not the top tier) but the sonics of the KRELL are great. It also has the very best ROON READY ... | |
| Top 3 Headphones I just saw this review for my rock and roll headphones. The reviewer does not use the best amp for it, the RAAL VM-1a, and his comments about the headphone running a bit hot are surprising. I purposely use a hot DAC, the Benchmark DAC3B, with the ... | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy @rlross3 If you want to bring out the big guns to tackle this problem. I recommend a DSP genius, Mitch Barnett. That is if you are a ROON or JRiver user. Accurate Sound Reproduction Using DSP , Barnett, Mitch - Amazon.com His company is Accurate... | |
| The revolution has begun! @tweak1 Yes, I did get it modded by Ric. It was an improvement over stock, especially on the top end. I had another amp that had more low-end power but not as good on top, I sold the Voyager because I wanted more power for the bass with my old Thi... | |
| Luxman 590AX II Break-In @jeffreyw I was reading a post of yours when I was researching the Luxman M10X amp. I am looking for an amp for the KEF Blade 2 Meta and was thinking of the Rotel Michi M8 mono. It was suggested to me to check out the M10X over the Michi by a form... | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy @rlross3 This afternoon I removed my CD rack containing about 300-400 CD’s from my small office. I had an acoustic absorption panel in front of the rack because it was near the first reflection point of my right speaker. I also increased my wall ... | |
| The revolution has begun! @tweak1 I am expecting the GAN1 to be better than the LSA Voyager 350 GAN. If so, that would be quite an accomplishment, especially at the price. | |
| No 1099-k for 2022 for Paypal and other payment platforms Hey I am a poor guy who was wringing hands in worry about this, so much so that I got a second job last week to pay my taxes. This is freaking great news! | |
| Top 3 Headphones I am not a headphone guy, but I think I have 2 of the very best headphones at any price. As I write this, I am listening to my hard rock headphones, the RAAL CA-1a with the SR728 Silver RAAL cable (it matters). I have 3 amps (soon to be 4) that I ... | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy Your ML gear is not bright from my experience. The 585 and 436 were on the slightly warm side of things when I heard them with Magico A3 speakers. I also feel the B&W are brighter than my comfort level, and the Sonus is darker than my comfort ... | |
| This may be of interest to some... PayPal, Venmo, et al are all the intended targets. Though people are beeaching about this and there may be some adjustments. Such as making the threshold higher. | |
| Which mono power amp would you choose and why? @jaymark Is your CODA #16 as powerful sounding as the other amps in your possession? I am also thinking like the OP to buy something with massive power over refinement. The CODA #16 is my idea of a refined amp the Michi that I referenced above sho... |
