| Opinions on best integrated under 10k? Uber,I think some of the integrateds in the Pathos line might fit the bill. I think their tube integrated amps are still limited with their digital inputs, but they have the rest of what you need.Are you completely opposed to an outboard DAC? | |
| Opinions on best integrated under 10k? Do you have to sell the 2170 to fund this purchase? You could always use the 2170 as a preamp, since it already has everything you need and run it with a nice tube amp.Hard to find a tube integrated with the digital inputs you’re wanting. My other... | |
| Krell Digital Vanguard or Parasound Halo integrated? How's the search coming along? | |
| Krell Digital Vanguard or Parasound Halo integrated? Uber,Guess what? I just bought used Halo Integrated (my 2nd one, ha) two weeks ago. Very powerful, dead quiet, and slightly on the warm side, associated equipment dependant of course.I don’t use the phono stage, it’s mediocre at best w/ very littl... | |
| What is being said at the 1:59 mark of this song? I hear - "Kale Salad Rump" | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? amgradmd,Thanks for the update. Makes me wish I would've held out a little longer so I could have tried the PSU-10.I also did test the NPC and PH-10 side by side, and in my system, the PS Audio outperformed the PH10 with just about everything I t... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. Uber,I use/used an SVS SB2000 when I had the 2170. Those are on sale now for $699 which is an absolute steal. I know that’s over your budget, but IMHO it’s easily worth double that. Sealed box, with the 2170 setup correctly, it will absolutely dis... | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Uber,I agree with you. Maybe best to wait until some actual PH10 users have had some time with the PSU, and hear their findings. | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Update:The PS Audio has had a day of use now, and it's much better than I was expecting, fitting in fantastically with my current system. I'm no longer going to be seeking out a different phono stage.Until the itch comes back, of course.. | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Just checked out Gold Note's site, and all the PSU details are there. Looks very cool.Thanks for the heads up @sksos1 | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Uber,Still undecided on the iFi. I'm using it with my CD player right now, and like what i'm hearing. I find that I'm listening to albums that are easily accessible through Tidal, but now with a "tube" sound and it's a blast.That being said, if ... | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Short list:EAR 834P deluxeLehmann Silver CubeManley ChinookParasound JC3+Rega AriaAll but the Rega, I would need to purchase used, but I see them listed pretty often. I really enjoyed the PH10 used with the iFi iTube2, but that was make-shift (h... | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Uberwaltz, +1I'm worse than you are, and enjoying music in the primary goal, but there's no harm in trying new things. For me, that's part of the fun, and part of this hobby. It's whatever makes you happy. | |

| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? Uber,Valid point. I'm actually using the iFi with an old NAD cd player & it's working out wonderfully.. I mean I'm playing CDs again, and having fun. |
