| New speakers? No thanks. Being satisified or happy with what one has, the life one lives is one of the best things we can do for happiness. | |
| Just sharing my excitement Wow I am extremely jealous but happy for you! The Codex and those Quatro CTs will sound spectacular. (As Wayne might say “we’re not worthy) | |
| New speakers? No thanks. I have Vandersteen 2 CE Sig II, and enjoy them immensely but if I were able to budget a change of speakers I would get the Quatro Wood CT without question. | |
| Does my amp have enough juice to power my speakers? For easy to drive speakers, say high sensitivity 90? and 8 ohm or higher one can use even a flea watt amp for great success. A great many horn loud speakers (Klipsch and Volti Audio) sound terrific with low watt amps. I have that EXACT amp (LM aud... | |
| HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? I think the Modwright SWL-9.0 Se is a great choice. As pointed out by winoguy17. I would take it over the Odyssey, Schiit or Van Alstine anyday. I have a Schiit product, but the Modwright is a couple steps up. IMHO | |
| Recommendation on power amp Newtoncr congrats on making a choice to suit yourself.I think some posters, particularly some of the sales people, think they are the complete authority on what is good and what is not. Often someone points to their knowledge and experience. Let’s... | |
| Dumb lo-fi question. Yeah depends on many factors of course - much like millercarbon wrote. You really need to know how much power your speakers will draw from your receiver. The speakers have a sensitivity rating and an ohm rating, which is a good start. Just follow ... | |
| A DAC that can make digital sound analog? All DAC’s convert a digital signal to analog. That’s how we hear it. But I understand the question. Also, we are led to believe ALL analog sources sound great. I mean does everyone own a Well Tempered or VPI turntable and great phono preamp? Does ... | |
| Streaming music- not the end all music solution but one main advantage? Some people don’t like them, but I have found the Powerline adapters very useful in situations where one cannot run another Ethernet cable for a wired connection (thus extending their router to another room in the house) and cannot get a wireless ... | |
| Highest BUILD quality tube amps? One of the biggest considerations I have with purchasing audio equipment is the quality level of communication and support. Often companies offer long warranties but don’t want the customer to use it. So you can’t get ahold of them, you are put on... | |
| Recommendation on power amp I can add something of value perhaps to the discussion. I think audiotroy mentioned he does not carry JL Audio subwoofers and now carries SVS.I cannot find fault with his statement but...Quite a few years back, before SVS became a bigger company, ... | |
| Streaming music- not the end all music solution but one main advantage? Hey mental,The Bryston is really good stuff. Keep in mind, the Bluesound is budget gear that sounds good. Any Bryston streamer or Bryston DAC might sound better, since one is paying more.The NAD Master series takes the Bluesound up a notch...at a ... | |
| Can someone tell me why Tidal MQA shows as 96Khz when using a non-MQA DAC? What tomcy6 and uberwaltz said!! | |
| Streaming music- not the end all music solution but one main advantage? All good and helpful comments. As indicated by some fellow goners here, streaming should be able to co-exist with other tried and true music playback avenues (both analog and digital-to-analog). I have always been a fan of cassette tape, reel-to-r... | |
| Agon is now a retail outlet. So many people are saying, “a fooland his money soon part”? I would add people and audiophiles believe what they want to believe. This is a perfect place to take advantage of gullibility and susceptibility. It is not rocket science to spot the ove... |
