| Manley with Harbeth Monitor 40.1 Sorry, haven't heard Manley but I just picked up a Rogue Stereo 100 and it sounds extremely nice on the 40.1's This is a very nice match. Heavenly, in fact. | |
| Which USB converter to use with a Berkeley DAC? I would think that Berkeley's own converter would be the most synergistic solution - somewhat pricey though. | |
| Sony HAP-Z1ES Hi-Res Music Player RMAF 2013 Guys,I don't see the requirement for a digital input. I am totally in the digital realm with file playback through a MacMini (dedicated and optimized for processing digital files) and external DAC. The appeal of this unit to me would be the prover... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Phil (213cobra),Would you care to comment on the Soul Supreme vs. Druid V? Am I to understand that the Supreme contains the Radian tweeter with the HO FRD? Does the Supreme have the Nano driver?I had a pair of the original Superflys and sold them ... | |

| Harbeth SHL5 for Shindo Montille? The Harbeth official spec at 86 db is very conservative. One of the British magazines actually measured it at closer to 90 or 91. Also the steady impedance loadline makes for an easy drive for tube amps. I've been running my SHL5's with an Allnic ... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Best bet is to give them a call.I picked up 2 pairs if 1M b-stock Mission ic's @ $75 each.A few weeks ago I also purchased a couple pairs of Wylde ic's for $99 ea. I got the Wylde since I run mono blocks and required separated runs (the Mission ar... | |

| Zu Soul Superfly I've received my Superflys and have been enjoying them immensely.Regarding amplifier selections, I'm very interested in Atma-sphere to go along with m Bent Tap-X Autoformer passive. Wondering if the Atma M60's would be overkill with the 101 db Sup... | |
| Slagle AVC Modules & Lightspeed Attenuator I've got the Bent Tap-X which I really enjoy. The design and execution of the circuitry is excellent (utilizing fibre optics links to control the autoformer modules) and implementation of the optically encoded remote control is great. Now, how coo... | |

| My head hurts.... " I've also found a stunning thing... each of the USB ports on the MacMini (four of them) sound a little different... one or two are much, much better than the others... go figure"Ed (Istanbulu)Can you tell us which particular physical USB port(s)... | |
| Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp I've never heard the Prom but I'm sure that the Bent is comparable if not even better (as far as features go). The Red Wine integrated and the power amp are virtually the same except for the Goldpoint attenuator (also input Z - 20K for the integra... |
