| SPDIF converter for Audio Note Dac 2.1 I was thinking the difference maker was pure music into dacmagic vs. itunes into hiface to Audio Note dac. Pure music is a game changer even straight into headphones for me. | |
| 12ax7 12AU7 EL34 / KT 88/ 6550 upgrades for PL2 I just ordered some Pavane 12AU7's from Grant Fidelity. The notice says they shipped the same afternoon I ordered. I also purchased 300b's last year - weren't cheap but again service was excellent. Looking forward to putting the 12AU7's in my prea... | |
| I have three digital sources judging by how close it comes to my Audio Note dac and Accustic Arts transport the Oppo se is really good. I actually was surprised there wasn't more discussion about how good the se is in this thread. That said, I think it is the weak link in my ... | |
| I have three digital sources I knew this was the problem right away - has been a couple of years at least since I opened up the dac and timing is perfect for me being generally unhappy with it. Happened to me before with an amp where the dampers did just that - yes they got r... | |
| I have three digital sources Okay - pretty embarrassed to write about this one. Had a new set of 6922's around so opened up the dac this morning to replace my older pair and found I had a set of herbie's (I love your products most of the time) tube dampers on the 6922's. Popp... | |
| I have three digital sources I may well be legally deaf - certainly something going on when a 3k dac and 4k transport aren't in same league as $800 blueray player. My other gear is decent - a 300b amp and Lamm preamp. My dac is a 2.1 kit and wondering if something is not quit... | |
| I have three digital sources thanks Paul - very eclectic music tastes - Classical - been reading book Cello Suites so have been listening to a couple versions of this lately, some folk - lots of Greg Brown of late, jazz - 50's Monk to Jason Moran, and yes some hard rock - bee... | |
| I have three digital sources thanks for the responses.Paul - yours is most interesting to me. Actually did a comparison tonight using both Macbook with M2tech hiface and Accustic Arts as transports and it wasn't subtle that the Oppo se was better. So question is what is wrong... | |
| Perfect Wave DAC and Bridge Desalvo - how does the perfect wave and transport sound on cds compared to the Oppo SE (stock). I have been mighty impressed with my Oppo Se and just wondering if this is a major upgrade from sound perspective. Enjoying this thread - thanks to all... | |
| from Zu Druids to.... I'd love to go to RMAF - on my must do list one of these years, every year I think about it but never make the plans. Glory thanks for advice on the stands - I was considering buying the AN stands as well. I find the dynamics of the Druids and bas... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly I own 08 Druids which I run with a method sub. Maybe this has been covered off but for those who have heard both Druid and Superfly is the fly a significant upgrade to the Druid sound. If so in what way. I must admit I like the lower profile of th... | |
| High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more yep you are right got the models wrong. Have a medium to large living room so have been looking at Total Victory IV. Good to hear Coincident's amps are 300b's - didn't know about these amps. | |
| High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more I have been looking longingly at Coincident Super Victory 4's. At 96db they are on the cusp and really not sure whether my 8 watt 300b's will drive them. Surprised sometimes at how well my amps drive lower efficiency speakers but thinking about up... | |
| High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more I read some forums where the old / vintage school of high efficiency speakers - Klipsch, Tannoy, Altec, JBLs. even Audio Notes are the only way to go. On others like audiogon the newer high eff speakers - horns, Zu, Horning,Coincident, etc. are in... | |
| High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more great thread ... curious what you are using now Paul that you have moved past the Audio Notes and Tonians. |
