| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I bought the Peachtree GAN1 today. I had Ric's first modded Voyager 350 GAN amp so if he is enthusiastic about the GAN1 I want to check it out. The idea of less wires and boxes does make for a compelling argument. @ricevs If you need a GAN1 unit ... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta I have a USB optimized front end, the Sonore opticalRendu fed by a EtherRegen. I am going to use the just purchased Sonore UltraDigital and use it with the oR and eR combo. This is all Fibre Optical and my best streaming setup. I have 2 other opti... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta Just found out that the UltraDigital unit connected to my opticalRendu will infact support software volume adjustment via ROON. I now need to cancel that order for the Bluessound unit from Peachtree. This is what my streamer will be like ... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta @ricevs Not interested in building a speaker. I am going to be doing a second job in Jan 2023 and have no time for anything but work and music. What do you think I should get to stream to the GAN1? Sonore - Sonicorbiter ultraDigital I would li... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta @ricevs I saw some of your posts on this and decided today to see what the fuss was all about. I guess I will get delivery next week. I am going to compare this to the following: - Benchmark LA4 preamp - Benchmark AHB2 monos - Musetec 005 DAC... | |
| DAC league table Take a look at this unit and see if you even need your amp. GaN 1 Pre-Purchase | Peachtree Audio You will need to get the BluesNode bundle. I was considering getting this today to try out but realized I had no time to play around with it. You... | |
| opticalRendu network streamer – a review I have 3 of these because they are great and so robust. I am a computer guy and am comfortable dealing with computer issues but with the Rendu’s I cannot say I ever needed to do use my computer brain for diagnostics. At worst just restart the unit... | |
| Candidates for best speakers in the $2000-5000 market If you have a smaller sized room, check out the KEF LS50 Meta + KEF KC62 sub. I bought the LS50 Meta as a backup speaker after my old LS50 got damaged. The plan was to buy the $10K USD Yamaha NS3000 monitor from Canada. It is very much like the NS... | |
| Has the ASR review/hatchet job on the Musetec MH-DA005 Changed Anyone's Mind? The volume control of the LA4 is maybe the best I have heard. It does click so that is a no go for many but I look at it as a feature and not a bug. The quietness of the LA4 is what separates the LA4 from the 07x. The Benchmark DAC3 HSC (a preamp ... | |
| Has the ASR review/hatchet job on the Musetec MH-DA005 Changed Anyone's Mind? I have 2 of the Musetec 005 units. Though 1 is back in storage waiting another day and another system. The 005 is a smooth DAC and that is one attribute (of many) that draws people to it and sometimes people away from it. I love the 005 with my B... | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. Moving Pictures - Rush | |
| Alan Parsons - From The New World Found out recently that the dude lives up the hill in an avocado farm a few miles from my home. Will give his new one a listen. | |
| Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? My wife’s Polish 21-year-old niece was visiting, and we went to get some burgers at a restaurant. I asked her what she wanted to drink, and she said VODKA! I know that her hometown in Poland has some great vodkas (especially straight from the fre... | |
| Room size definition The KEF LS50 is too small for that room. I have a room that is 15 x 20 x 25 and it opens up to a family room. The LS50 with the KC62 sub sounded tiny in there. However, the same system in my 12x11x9 room is incredible. A KEF Blade 2 would be incr... | |
| HoloAudio STREAMER is out now @thyname I got a few headphone amps and kept 2. Matrix Mini Pro 3 - this one is almost like a portable DAC/amp. At least it is easy to move to various room in the house or backyard. It also sounds pretty good, as do most $1000 DACs. That reminds ... |
