| What's the greatest bargain in SET these days? I tried decappos with quicksilver 300b amplifiers in a 12x16 room. Not enough poser. Distortion at higher volumes. | |
| Walking Into A Brick & Mortar High End Audio Store When I was a teenager, and that was quite some time ago, I used to go into an audio store after school and hang out with the salesman and listen to gear. They knew they weren't going to make big bucks off of me, but not much was going on, and they... | |
| What to do with Bozak B310B Concert Grands Agree, it will be easy to find Bozac enthusiasts locally on craigslist, and they will be really happy to get them. Don't know what they are worth, but you should probably research that... | |
| Bryston 28B-SST2 or Karan Acoustics KA-S 600 ? Ayer is a great manufacturer with excellent service and very good quality control. I wouldn't hesitate buying used. That said, the Bryston 28 is an excellent sounding amp. I thought it sounded special with Maggies. Very worth trying. | |
| DAC for iPod/iPhone Look at JDS Labs website. They've got a DAC/headphone amp that works with modern idevices. | |
| High End Enclosures Pose this question on audio circle DIY forums. There are definitely some good manufacturers out there. | |
| what speaker for rega brio-r I don't know about the LSA .5, but I just auditioned it with the LSA Statement, and it DIDN'T make the most of that speaker's abilities. It did a better job with the Silverline Prelude. I haven't compared the Prelude with other speakers, but it so... | |
| Sennheiser 650 Headphone Cable Upgrade I had good experiences with signal cables for my HD 580s. There is a 30 day return policy. | |
| Satellite Type Speakers for 2ch System Good suggestion. I like the simplicity, as we could just connect an airport express to the A5+ speakers. The A5's are rear ported, so that is an issue for mounting near a wall. But she may have the perfect situation... I was going to mount the spe... | |
| Life after ADS How do those ADS models compare to the 810's, which I have heard and was impressed with? | |
| Why won't my iPad work with my devilsound DAC? Skipper, I believe your problem is that this DAC requires powering from the computer source, and the ipad and iphone won't power more than 100 mA. These idevices work just fine with selfpowered DACs using the lightning to USB adaptor. I found that... | |
| IPhone 5S options for audio? You can now get digital out from an iphone5 using Apple's Lightning to USB adaptor under IOS7. The iphone will not power a USB-powered DAC. If you do get a USB powered DAC, you will need to put a powered USB hub between the iphone and the USB DAC.... | |
| Iphone and DAC question I am using my iphone5 and my ipad, together with a lighting to usb converter, to send music to various USB DACS. IOS7 will now permit exporting the digital stream. One limitation is that the idevice cannot provide power to the DAC, so if you get a... | |
| MHDT Havana best DAC under 600 used? The USB is its weak link. If you are going to use USB as a source, get a converter to spdif. I'm not sureifthe USB is even asynchronous. | |
| To Vandersteen or not to Vandersteen Why not look into a good sub or pair of subs? |
