| Manufacturers Thanks everyone for your feedback, perspective and advice. I ended up upgrading my Harbeth 30.2 to HL5 Super Plus and am expecting them in a few days. I'm sure they'll be great. The dealer I worked with was great, texted, emailed, called, handled ... | |
| Manufacturers No, not Devore, someother brand | |
| Manufacturers Not sure what the reference is to "Bache"? Not the brand I'm referring to but I won't name them here, not trying to burn a bridge or pointedly call out someone...Not sure if they have dealers but will explore. I bought the Harbeth 30.2 and love th... | |
| Manufacturers I hear what you're saying but only somewhat can agree. I'm self employed. Out of everything a self employed person has to handle I'll offer that writing new business is the top priority. I can't fathom ignoring a request to discuss my services fro... | |
| Manufacturers Sure, not unreasonable. However, it defies logic (to me at least) that someone who's name IS the brand can't be bothered to respond to a customer- he must read the email, shrug his shoulders and choose to do nothing. Weird and not very customer or... | |
| Devore Fidelity vs Devore Fidelity id be curious if he responds. | |
| Most organic / real / analogue sounding DAC (ideally with Volume Control) for $1500?????? What could you be listening to that makes "all digital sound thin and critical"? It hasn't been for many years- def not a result of being digital. I'd look at other areas of your system and room first that can have a much more heavy handed impact ... | |

| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) BTW, one of the best features Roon offers IMO is a parametric EQ- gives you infinite control of eq'ing your room- super easy and effective, all digitally. Once you treat your room for slap echo/brightness then try using their EQ function for the r... | |
| unbeatable Class A integrated Pass Labs 150 and 250 integrated's are both Class A . | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) If your budget is up to 4k why would you be auditioning a $600 pair of Klipsch ? I had Focal 1038, Focal Sopra 2 in my 13x22 room that was treated running on a Pass 250.8 and have a REL s5/sho avail to use to. The 1038 though lower priced (bought ... | |
| Why do you guys pursue a flat frequency response when you buy a subwoofer? I don't look for such a flat response spec, I look for indicators of good tone, fast, tight response. With Roon providing parametric eq options and many subs now offering similar via mobile apps its super easy to tune the sub to either your tastes... | |
| More Power or use subwoofer to boost bass for music One interesting and inexpensive method to adjust your frequency response humps and dips in the room is to use the built in parametric EQ function in Roon - you can even use Roon for 14 days for free to try it out, play around with the EQ and if yo... | |
| Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard The same thing happened with my NAD integrated amp about 7 years ago, I don't remember the model number but it was 150 or 200 watts a channel and luckily it happened when I was in the room listening to music- flames/sparks shooting up through the ... | |
| Done selling on eBay, they are demanding my social security number to sell Ebay has long ago become unfriendly to transact with-difficult for sellers, who now seem to have become "suspect", complaining buyers, funds being escrowed, too many scammers. I stopped using it completely as it become too painful. |
