| Gustard R26 I am interested in how this R2R sounds. I owned the X26 Pro and wrote a lot about how much I liked it on A'gon. I sold the X26 Pro to fund the purchase of the Musetec 005. I like the 005 more than the X26 Pro but I wish I had kept the X26 Pro, it ... | |
| Theoretical battery power supply question Give Ric a call at EVS. He is doing something with batteries these days and posting on A'gon. http://tweakaudio.com/EVS-2/Inverter_Power.html | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC @jjss49 Whenever I go wine tasting in the Bay Area (Napa + Sonoma) I always ask for a straw. .. (who has a Topping in his audio chain is probably a person who only pays attention savings so I don't expect it to have a high-end system alas ...) ... | |
| Most Extensive State-of-the-Art DAC Survey Ever! None of those DACs on that list interest me. The only one I would even consider would be the T+A one at their crazy price. They seem to at least have some technical chops behind the research they do and thus maybe able justify the price in my eyes... | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances Here is another new amp that doubles down in Class A and is not big and heavy. Rei | WestminsterLab It uses similar tech as the new KRELL iBias way of doing Class A. Not real Class A as stated by companies like Gryphon. @secretguy So a classic ... | |
| THE NEW DCS APEX DAC VS THE PREVIOUS ROSSINI Just any FYI for comparing DACs. A great way to compare DAC's is to use a neutral preamp with identical input type (XLR or RCA). Connect each DAC to a preamps input. Assuming you need a streamer, then get 2 identical streamers. The key is to use... | |
| The State of Streaming Audio I have had Qobuz and Tidal for a few years and I prefer Tidal for the MY MIXES feature. It makes mixes based on you listening patterns, your library, along with Tidal's recommendations. I have a very eclectic mix of music that I listen too and I ... | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances I may have misinterpreted the OP's question. I believe there is a difference between HIGH CURRENT vs WATTS. Can anyone set me straight on that. I am considering the excellent 150 watt CODA #16 (which is supposed to be high current) vs some other a... | |
| Most Extensive State-of-the-Art DAC Survey Ever! The more important question is whether you would want to own those DACs? | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances I think I I need to give one of these amps a try before I buy an old school amp for my Livingroom. I love the sound of the Benchmark AHB2 (that is no sound). Though the AHB2's power in 2 Ohm is lacking in stereo and definitely in mono. The Purif... | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances I just checked the VTV site and the specs are not too bad. 950W @ 2Ω 500W @ 4Ω 250W @ 8Ω (2) Bruno strikes again. Purifi 1ET7040SA VTV Amplifier. Sinad 109. 950 watts. - YouTube | |
| Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC Last night I put my Topping D90LE (their top DAC minus MQA) in with my RAAL VM-1a tube headphone amp. The Musetec 005 is not good with the VM-1a. The Topping D90LE was fantastic with the VM-1a. I think it was even better than the Benchmark DA3B on... | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances Anybody know what the status of the second iteration of Purifi amps. These new ones are supposed to be much more powerful than the 200 watt first version. | |
| Best High Current amplifiers stable into low impedances I went through the 2 Ohm dance with my now sold Thiel CS3.7 speakers. I thought newer speakers were easier to drive. The amp I am likely going to get for my Livingroom is the KRELL KSA i400. It is 400 watts of Class A (depending on demand) at 8 O... | |
