| Downsizing Speakers in Main Listening Room - Your Feedback on Some options Thank you all for some great items to consider - sealed cabinets. Zu, Harbeth, Salk and others. Happy to hear a few of those on the list are of interest to follow-up with as well -- Focal Sopra, Sonus Faber Liutos. Also figured if I went with a sm... | |
| Downsizing Speakers in Main Listening Room - Your Feedback on Some options Helomech - thanks for the advice - I have seen several of the sealed cabinets in the bookshelf size but not in a floor stander. Any recommendations for either size ? Also not familiar with the "transmission line" style cabinet - can you recommend ... | |
| Revel or Aerial In my limited listening experience this far - about 4 years into a system build - and probably have listened to a dozen brands(and numerous models) of speakers. From Sonus Faber, B&W , to Vandersteen and PSB - my most memorable experience to d... | |
| I'm now a Cardas Woman. I used to be a Kimber gal Stringreen - I had an extremely similar experience. Ayre setup with PSB Syncrony 1 speakers - and could just not like the Cardas Golden Ref, As you said Ayre even has them made to match with them. I guess all in the "ears" of the listener - | |
| PS Audio DLIII DAC Inverts Absolute Polarity Thank you both for a very informative discussion, however some of these proposed changes are a bit beyond my comfort zone.

| Best Amplifier at $3000 for PSB or VA May have to look used, but Ayre matches well with both - demo'd both and purchased the PSB Sync 1s. Great sound and for me more forgiving to room setup/config then Vandersteen (also demo'd 2CEsigll). Good luck and enjoy! | |

| It's all over now, baby blue. Or is it not? One practical choice I made when kids wee that age (as well as a general organization change) was to leave the plastic jewel boxes behind. I moved all my CDs to binders with CD pages - includes liner/artwork and my whole collection can sit on a hi... | |

| PC audio with USB DAC Steve N.,Reading your summary above, the only items that is not clear to me is the digital cable length. I am having difficulty seeing where a 1.5M cable is more efficient then a .5 M cable in delivery digital content. I am open to the argument bu... | |
| DAC suggestion for Win PC and Headphone/amp Marakanetz,I actually only need a DAC - the Bryston BHA1 is a first tier dedicated headphone amp - just no DAC. In fact some of my limitation is that the Grado and Bryston both use balanced XLR cable connections between headphone and amp. So I am ... | |
