| New York Audio Show Review Chanson: As I said in another post, thanks for reminding me. The Kaiser/LessLoss room was superb, including last year. Also, the the Zellaton room was another stand-out. | |
| Anyone going to the NY Audio show today to Sunday Thanks for reminding me guys. The Kaiser/LessLoss room was fantastic. Last year it was on of the best sounds at the show for me as well. Also, the Zellaton/CH Precision room was remarkable playing Sonny's "Way Out West".Well, as for all the "negat... | |
| New York Audio Show Review Yes, the Wilson Dagostino room wasn't a favorite for me for a very simple, all too common reason: in a large room, it seems volume needs to be turned up to "wow" people sitting far away and also to overcome the never ending "chatter" going on. I'v... | |
| Speakers vs. headphones A good recommendation, Zd542. BTW: I had the Audeze LCD 2/Burson combo for a while. The Audeze retrieved detail unlike any speaker I've ever heard, I couldn't get used to the "head in a vise" feeling though. Also, I need a sensation of having a so... | |
| Anyone going to the NY Audio show today to Sunday In short, disappointed.

| Have cables become somewhat of a snake-oil topic. Well said Brownsfan. | |
| Have cables become somewhat of a snake-oil topic. Bottom line people: If it sounds better, it's not snake oil. | |
| Wyred 4 Sound STP SE and ST-1000 I've said this before. I believe many people don't give the Wyred amps at least 300 hours before passing judgement. I've been a tube guy my whole life, mostly EAR amps in addition to Kora and Dynaco. I'm currently using a Wyred STI-500 integrated ... | |

| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice Greg,Congrats on purchasing the Octave. It's probably the greatest value product I've owned through the years. I tried the M2Tech but ultimately returned it. I'm currently using the Audiophilleo 2 with the Metrum. | |
| WAF -1000000000 Biggest sub in the world. My god that's friggin insane. | |
| Novice needs Mac Mini and DAC advice I'm loving my Metrum Octave. At around $1,150 it's an absolute steal IMO. Beat my Weiss Minerva at 1/5th the cost. |
