| Jazz for aficionados Serious wind and rain are pounding us, so we’re not going after all. 😕😕. So we’re going to listen to HP with a bottle of red and the lights down low. | |
| Looking for advise and recommendations on a nice record cleaner. Back in the day, I had two small rectangular, metal tubs made for me by a friend. I’d fill it with warm tap water and a bit of rubbing alcohol and 3-4 drops of dish soap. I had some dowels and put a record on the dowel and insert it into the tub a... | |
| Ohm Speakers Status Update Years ago I had an Ohm F and had a love hate relationship with them and finally sold the less that a year after I bought them. They sounded great, but I had a few issues with them. Some was the design and some was the room and some was me.☺️ I am... | |
| Finally after 7 years of search... Full Range: Voxativ. @superelmar I’m very excited for you! Back in the olden days, I had some single driver speakers and I always had trouble with details, like being able to pick out individual instruments or voices. Again, I haven’t heard a single driver speaker ... | |

| Schitt Yggdrasil More is Better @yyzsantabarbara Do you think Schiit DAC’s are warm sounding? I have a Bifrost and it’s very analytical sounding almost sharp. That’s why I didn’t continue up the Schiit line and have settled with A Denifrips Pontus ll, that I’ve had now for ab... | |
| Seeking Bookshelf Recommendations Have given any thought to getting a pair of the new PS Audio FR5’s? They are $3500 and are returnable if need be. Having said that, The JA Pulsars are much better looking and I’m sure would make you very happy, but are three times the price. Le... | |
| Node 2i + DDC Upgrade to PulseMini? I have the N130 with a Teddy Pardo LPS and am using a Silversonic Mirage USB cable to a Pontus ll and it sounds great. I just bought an Aurender Streamer and YES, it sounds better, but I don’t think the juice was worth the squeeze. I’d say the BS... |
