| yggdrasil dac and Innous Zenith MK2 I'd look to find a dac that with a renderer can use ethernet with the ZenithI use 2 ethernet cables now with mine, that's it. Cost me like $15 from BJA. | |
| Stenheim Speakers Great to hear this - I'm hoping they have more US dealerships soon. Seems like the perfect endgame speaker for me. | |
| Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound? Lampi and Luxman off the top of my head... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Any word on a TotalDac demo? You've been attempting to arrange one it seems forever. | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers I think the more comparable speaker to the JA Perspective is the new Devore Super Nine. Does you dealer have a pair of them? | |
| Zu Soul Supreme Recap -- Owners, what are your preferred system pairings with them? Great read - thanks for your feedback on the various amps and combinations. Nice to read the LTA plays in that league - although reported QC issues prevented me from ordering one.Did you roll the tubes on the Melody? Pretty important as the stock... | |
| Devore Orangutan O/96 Resale Value Around 8k. Devore holds up well resale-wise as dealers don't really discount. | |
| DeVote Fidelity O/96 versus Wilson Audio Sabrina/Yvette I think if you make one more run with just the two speakers on similar electronics, your decision will be easy. Can't fault either choice!I will say, the Yvette is my least favorite Wilson design-wise as I believe the time alignment adjustment is ... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers You might check out the new Devore Super 9... | |
| Maybe looking at the following to replace my Magico S-5 MK 1 I'd suggest you audition the Devore Gibbon X and the Wilson Sabrina. They are on the opposite side of Magico. | |
| Best of the best Integrated amps in 2018 For SS, the Dart CTH is sublime and comes with phono which separates it from the pack.For P/P tube, I'd probably try with the new Vac 170iq which is getting excellent reports - it also has a phono option. | |
| Have Passive Preamps Finally Come of Age? I think TVCs are the way to go passively and don't experience the loss of dynamics, etc. that resistor-based passives bring. I compared my Music First to several active, tube preamps and it was the champ. | |
| Torus power vs the competition So what happened with the Torus, Dave? | |
| Lyra Delos A truth teller or what? I found the Delos to sound a bit etched in my system. It was like they designed a cartridge to sound kinda digital. Lyra is very system dependent and just wasn't good in mine. My friend has multiple Lyras, so go figure. | |
| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? The DarTZeel integrated has everything you are looking for and sounds spectacular. My only qualm on the phono stage is with very low LOMC it sounded better with SUT.In tube land, the new Vac coming out could be the equivalent on the other side. |
