| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio @teajay I currently use a MHDT Labs Balanced Pagoda DAC that typically uses 5670 tubes. I had read though, that someone used a converter and used 6922 tubes and was loving it. So I got a converter and then started reading about the "best sounding"... | |
| Ypsilon Phaeton + Marten Coltrane Tenor = which DAC? That Ypsilon dac looks to be a great one. | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money @david_ten If I were financially in the position to buy it today, I would. Though I want a black one. I'm also really wanting to hear some reports on the quality of the Jay's Audio dac. Even though the price point is lowish, if we take into accoun... | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money What is going on? I know that in the review he was comparing the Formula with the Terminator. However you stated that in the review he says they were voiced similarly......which he didn't. Even in the portion you just quoted, he says they're not o... | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money @david_ten Alvin, from Vinshine Audio has said this "FPGA coding on Terminator is tuned to produce lush, dynamic and musical sound." And just enjoy every single review has said the exact same thing. You can have whatever problem with the statement... | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money While all equipment has a voice, I am not sure that all of it is voiced to sound a specific way. Yes, most is, but many also want to simply let as much information through as possible, while not sounding amusical. Price, experience, knowledge, mat... | |
| New Denafrips amp and preamp I definitely don't see myself switching out my Benchmark AHB2's for it. But I am curious.I wonder if they've voiced them to be warm, like their Terminator. | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money @toddrhodes I'm currently running my CDT2 into a modified MHDT Labd Balanced Pagoda, and I think it sounds outstanding. However I feel as though there is more musical information to be had, as well as me wanting to get tubes out of my source.The M... | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money @david_ten I imagine it is fairly transparent. However the designers have said they voiced it to be lush. Most reviews also say it is in the warm side. I'm sure it isn't syrupy warm or lush, but I'm trying to avoid as much voicing as possible, and... | |
| New Denafrips amp and preamp I noticed that the pries are lower. I wonder if they'll be making different levels of gear, like their dacs. | |
| If you still spin CD's their is a reference level Transport for reasonable money I also love mine and see no reason to switch it out for anything else. It just sounds right. I had an April Music CDT100 that sounded great, but was weighted downwards. I also have a Musical Fidelity that sounds very very good, and doesn't do anyt... | |
| Jay’s Audio DAC Anyone bite the bullet and purchase the DAC yet? | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker I don't understand the thinking that Benchmark is somehow duping people into buying two of theirs amps. I've never seen marketing for one amp (think it's obviously out there), let alone two. I purchased my second amp because of my, and others expe... | |
| The one component that you wish you had not bought I bought a First Watt F7, and for my system it was a complete waste of time and money.It didn't mesh well with my system. No top end, no air, no life.There was a mismatch somewhere. | |
| Hornshoppe "the Truth" preamp - any opinions? I really wish there was a balanced version of this preamp (my amps and source are balanced). I would have either purchased it in place of my current preamp, or would be testing it against it.Needing a balanced preamp, I got a Tortuga preamp instea... |
