| Testing Ethernet switch These threads always crack me up, with some folks insisting other folks "prove" something all the while ignoring the actual reason folks are here (i.e., how things sound). Every network engineer suddenly also becomes an expert in psychoacoustics.... | |
| Horn speakers with Imaging? I owned Klipsch Forte III's and thought the imaging was a little non-specific. The Volti Razz I replaced them with were much better. I currently own both Volti Rivals and Fleetwood Devilles and both image spectacularly. Like any speaker topolo... | |
| Ethernet connection for best sound quality @akg_ca but you are utterly unqualified to do any test like that, so it is garbage. It would like saying I did randomized control trial of the weight loss drug, sure, I did it, but it doesn’t mean anything because I am not qualified to conduct su... | |
| Eversolo DMP A6 @willywonka Thanks for the update. It's definitely a great value, and I would jump all over the Master Edition if I was looking at some of the stuff from (as an example) Matrix Audio, which I've found really wonky in a number of ways. The Everso... | |
| Eversolo dmp A6 vs Master edition vs Z8 IMO the HiFi Rose 150b is better than the Eversolo as both a stand-alone and as a streamer only. For some folks not 5x better, but in my system it just has a more relaxed immersive feel than the Eversolo. The Eversolo has a nice soundstage (as d... | |
| Eversolo dmp A6 vs Master edition vs Z8 @jjss49 Curious if you have any updates to share. I've got the basic version and have compared it to the HiFi Rose 150b as both a stand-alone unit and as a streamer only, I'm also going to compare it to my Optical Rendu as a streamer and also to... | |
| Eversolo DMP A6 I've been playing with the base unit for a few days and think it's really good. I haven't heard everything at its price point but given its feature set, ease of use, and sound quality I imagine it measures up favorably with anything in its range.... | |
| Integrityhifi TRU-GLIDER Pendulum Tonearm @phantom_av I know that's a combo that the good Dr. has installed many times. Everyone I know has been happy with this arm and on a pretty wider variety of tables. Enjoy!! | |
| New KEF R11 META : The Real Giant Killers ! Seriously, why post a freakin video by Andrew Robinson as proof of anything? There are tons of folks who love the KEF sound and nearly as many who don't. There are a s$%^ ton of speakers at $6K, the R11s are hardly a giant killer. | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @mc1969 Clearly you don't understand what putting quotes around a word means. The Technics is a GaN FET amp as opposed to so much in this thread which is not. | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? I've got a Technics SU-R1000 which I think is pretty brilliant and is the first "digital" amp that I have really liked. I also had its baby brother in to play with for a couple of weeks and thought that was excellent as well. I had a NAD M33 for... | |
| Sonore OpticalRendu Yeah, I own the Optical Rendu and the Deluxe Optical Module and agree they are excellent. I have added a little augmentation with the power supplies (I'm using ones from Linear Tube Audio) but I understand that there are excellent options availab... | |
| DAC contest: Border Patrol Sei or Chord Qutest? These two are a lot of "apples and oranges". In MY system, the Border Patrol is the pretty clear winner over the Qutest (and yes, I've owned them both). I really enjoyed the Qutest when I dumped my Ayre Codex about three years ago. All the thing... | |
| New DACs High End Munich 2023 Hi Milpai, first I want to know which NOS Mazda's you are using with your Backert? I've got a Rythm 1.3 and have some tubes that Andy sent me which I like but love to tinker sometimes. Next, I want to recommend the Maerason DAC1. In my rig (McG... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev If you are interested in trying the Purple Fuse on the Innuous, here is their link for changing fuses. https://innuos.com/kb/replacing-the-fuse-on-innuos-products/ Also, I think Marten speakers recommend Jorma cables, so Marten dealers w... |
