| Codex 24/7 Yes it does run warm and I did leave it on 24/7. I believe, in my system, it performed best when it was at its full operating temperature. | |
| Why so many linn lp12s for sale Why are you commenting about someone’s year old posting? | |
| Adona audio Racks. Anybody use them? I purchased the eris6dw double wide rack a year ago. I upgraded the platforms to the cherry trim and the top two to the larger size for my turntables. Beautiful rack, very solid, and inert. It has replaced a Billy Baggs rack. | |
| Oppo 103 comparison with an Ayre Codex For the best performance of the Codex I highly recommend using the balanced output connections. I directly compared mine connected by high quality RCA cables to the same level XLR cables. The XLR output is notably better. | |
| Can one ever be "done" in this hobby? I agree that “done” in this hobby means done for now... though I believe my current “now” may last a little longer than in the past. | |

| Spendor D9 vs. PSB T3 speakers. I purchased the Spendor D9s. Previously had istened to the T3s in an friends system and they are very nice but the D9s, once fully broken in, surprise me daily with their musicality, clarity, and bass. Currently using an Ayre VX-5 twenty amp. | |

| NAD 3020 Loved my 3020 bought new the year they were released (1979?). In my main system for 20 years. | |

| DAC Suggestions for Aurender N100C I agree with hgeifman’s recommendation of the Ayre Codex. I have used one for the past year with excellent results. Very smooth and revealing. Only replaced by moving up to the Ayre QX5/20. I will be listing my Codex soon. | |
| Organic, musical and natural sounding speakers up to $12K Spendor D9. Currently using them with a VAC preamp and Ayre VX5/20 amp. Organic, musical, and natural in my well treated 14’ x 16’ X 8’ room. | |
| Who uses power conditioning? Audience aR6 TSSD w/AU24SEi cable. In my room and system I hear what I perceive as an improvement over direct to wall. | |
| NAD D3045 vs NAD C268 for KEF LS50 - which amp for greatest synergy with KEF LS50? The LS50 perform better with a little more power than the NAD3045 supplies in my experience. I tried them with the 7050D and they were lean and bright. Additional watts helped them greatly though it was also from a different manufacturer in my sy... |
