| Buyer wants copy of passport? It has been disappointing to see the many complaints that sellers have on this site, this is one reason I have not sold anything for a while. For me to sell something on Audiogon, I would have to have gold as payment! Very frustrating. Matt M | |
| Is my Amp OK? This is the fun part...try some different amps and see what it does. Your about to go on a fun journey and remember if it sounds great, it is! Trust your ears. Speakers need to break in for at least 50 -100 hours before they open up and sound good... | |
| What are your thoughts about moving up product line(s) within a Company? If I could afford too I would. but I cant so I dont. So there! | |
| Please recommend a PreAmp for my 5.1 home theatre system McIntosh MX151 control center :-) Ultimate for HT. | |
| Your Thoughts on the BAT VK-3i I have listened to a lot of pre amps and the BAT never did it for me, maybe the 6922 driven ones are good but the super tube 6H30's are very dry and uninspiring sounding in my opinion. Pre amps from McIntosh Labs, Manley Labs, Doge Audio, Dehavill... | |
| Turntable hum ground issue? Using Unbalanced cables causes this ground loop hum, try plugging amp directly to wall outlet by it self, everything else plugged into a standard power strip into a different outlet. Also, make sure ALL connections from cartridge clips (examine if... | |
| Using Oppo 205 instead of per amp processor TIM, Thank you for the kind words about my system and the video my daughter made, she used a HQ external digital audio recorder with fixed stereo mics (no wonder..right). I have a few different systems in my family, and one of them is a Aurender X... | |
| Emotiva xpa 2 gen 2 power amp Not a fan as well, these modular digital amps sound harsh and fatiguing and not fun to listen loudly for any length of time. | |
| This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in. I have owned a Solid State amplifier with Dynaudio speakers combo for over 15 years. I think a large stereo (350watts into 4ohms) from McIntosh Labs, Jeff Rowland Design, Plinus , Classe Audio or if you can swing some nicely powered mono blocks (5... | |
| Usability Issues with Tidal "I am using wi-if rather than Ethernet, and I wonder if that is affecting the sound quality"This is 100% why your are not happy, try plugging it in using Ethernet :-)If you want the best performance from streaming Tidal you must use a wired conn... | |
| DAC for either Roon or HQPlayer on Linux? I think you should check out a OPPO Sonica DAC/streamer $799.00 first.http://www.audioadvisor.com/prodinfo.asp?number=OPSONDACthen when your ready, you could connect (via the Sonica's USB audio digital input) a dedicated music server like a Aurend... | |
| Classe Audio rises again Yeah maybe they will go back to making really great sounding affordable amplifiers :-) | |
| Best Budget Phono Cartridge? With this Parasound 2100 you will not be able to properly play LOW output MC cartridges. So, High output MC’s and MM’s will work fine. This means No to the Denon DL103 and Yes to the 2M blue. If it were me, I would go with a Ortofon 2M red $100 be... | |
| Recommended Preamp for pairing an Adcom 555II Amp and Theil CS 3.5 speakers I have used the GFA 555 with the GFP 565 and while the pair is very good sounding (and the 565 has a great phono section if your into vinyl). But, I will say that when I installed the Modwright SWL 9.0 SE ($1000 used) it really showed me how beaut... | |
| Adcom? I drive a pair of UK made EPOS ES22’s with a ADCOM GFA 555, what really makes it sound special though is the Modwright SWL 9.0 SE pre amp. The GFP565 pre amp is good, but the tubed Modwright makes it really show me how good the GFA555 can sound. ... |
