| Most enduring audio purchase Verity Audio Parsifals, new in 2003. Upgraded the isolation with the ovation divider and Stillpoint feet. Still love the speakers. | |

| MSB Tech: Analog DAC vs. DAC IV Not exactly the same but I did compare the Analog Dac with power base, volume control and the UMT+ transport. My computer files go through the UMT+ first and then are locked to bit perfect slave to the Analog Dac clock. Much improved over USB dire... | |
| Looking For A Billy Bags Audio Rack they are tough and expensive to ship. Where are you located, that might help with recommendations. | |
| New Vandersteen oil cooled hybrid amplifiers I think that they are on the right path. I have saved my money for the first coal fired steam amps to come out. I would guess that they are just around the corner. | |
| Time to blast off from Rhea though I no longer listen to vinyl I used to have a Herron phono stage, VTPH-2 and it was dead quiet. I did demo the Rhea and really preferred the Herron. You can have you cake and eat it to. I have heard the AR, forget which and it did not have m... | |
| Computer vs CD/SACD discs Boy, some really great responses. I am going from a primarily analog, ( vinyl ) system to digital. Am working on doing computer but other than streaming from something like spottily I am struggling to understand the value of putting my music on a ... | |
| MSB Analog DAC experience thank all for your input. I am going from primarily an analog set up to computer audio due to space constraints. I went ahead and ordered an Analog DAC with volume and upgrade power supply. We'll see how it goes. | |

| NEED A RECOMMENDATION FOR NEW CD/SACD PLAYER boy, I am a big fan of esoteric. I have had my UX-3 since 2006. Did have a SACD reading issue a few years ago, Esoteric repaired for free and it has been flawless since. That being said. I did hear a Playback design, forget the model number but it... | |
| Attention Verity owners I have been happy with Nordost Frey. I use the series one which can be found cheaper since they updated to the new Frey II's. One thing I will tell you about he parsifal. Positioning is everything. Even a fraction of an inch can change things. I w... | |
| Aesthetix Rhea vs. BAT VK P-10 Phono Stage I have heard the Bat vk p-10 se with super pack and it was about the finest phone stage I have ever heard. It had great air, detail clarity, was very easy to listen to, great bass slam. I loved it and wish I had one. It is great. I have also heard... | |
| Best Hi-end speakers? That is a pretty competitive price range. All three are floor standing speakers. What might help is knowing what size room you are going to put them in, the type of music you are listening to and what you will be using for electronics. At this pri... | |
| Verity vs B&W I know them both very well, my local dealer handled both Verity and B&W. I spent most of my time comparing the 802D and Parsifal Encore, this was the 802D before the most recent version but did have the diamond tweeter. the B&W is very imp... | |
| most clear, crisp sound power amps, monoblocks ? I think it is a very clear and direct question, "What is best". I recall a famous quote in answering that question, " TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES, SEE THEM DRIVEN BEFORE YOU AND TO HEAR THE LAMENTATION OF THIER WOMEN". I think that was either Conan the ... |
