| New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!! We’ll I’m fresh off a two week trial of the JC5 (really like it), previously had dual mono Cambridge 851w’s and the JC5 was a jump up in detail, depth, width and microdynamics. Can’t say anything bad about, actually is an amazing amp. Wanted to r... | |
| Parasound vs Emotiva @borat-sagdiyev not bashing them at all, you're 100% correct! For the money, absolutely tons of value. Honestly, I'm still piecing things together and want different speakers and sub's for my main system, but really need to do more research and ... | |
| Parasound vs Emotiva I really enjoy Parasound amps, and I feel the A23+ will give you what you’re looking for, but more so improve sound detail and depth compared to what you have presently. I just recently went from dual Cambridge Audio Azur 851w (XD power amps) in ... | |
| Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit @oldschool1948 @jafant agree with both of you. I go back and forth with streaming from Tidal MQA and listening to stored content on my Innuos Zenith3+Phoenix USB and I’m still feeling like my stored content sounds better (ever so sligh... | |
| DAC Question: Delta-Sigma vs R2R @mod_asored Tons of good advice so far, my only add in is look at DAC connections and get something that has I2S and USB inputs if possible. It's always good to have options. I would love to get an R2R DAC for my second system. Happy hunting! | |
| anyone here tried Parasound "New" JC-5 amp @xcool this is a funny hobby. I actually feel the JC5 is throwing out a little too much bass ever so slightly, but the bass control and smoothness is phenomenal! I was listening and thinking to myself last night "yeah there’s a lot of bass", but i... | |
| Amplifier for Cornwall IV @lordrootman just wondering where you're seeing (or know a dealer) who's selling the JC5 for $3500... Hell I'd buy two right now! I'm trialling the JC5 now, but would love to save some $$$ | |
| anyone here tried Parasound "New" JC-5 amp @xcool Nice! Do you run a sub? I've never have had lack of bass issues with sub's. | |
| anyone here tried Parasound "New" JC-5 amp @xcool I too was looking at both the Anthem and JC5 and kinda the McIntosh MC830's (a little pricey) and Coda No. 8 (was really tempted). I'm really impressed with the Coda (not crazy on the looks), but ultimately went with the JC5 (arriving tomo... | |
| New Technics SU-G700 Mk II on the horizon @f1fletch you get your new G700MK2? Just wondering how you like it? | |
| When to Amp it Up? @bubba12 I already have a good integrated amp with the Technics SU-R1000. However it's prime use is for my vinyl with its balanced MC phono stage and DSP. I have my Teac TN-5BB and it's balanced outs running to it. It's clarity and neutrality ar... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC @yyzsantabarbara 100% second those recommendations. Gustard X26 Pro for $1,500 is excellent! Musetec 005 is my current DAC $3,200'ish and is just brilliant. Love seeing all the recommendation, spurs on my reading. Good luck! @terrapin77 | |
| When to Amp it Up? @tomic601 I have them on 17" custom stands and yeah the new room is most likely gonna be the deciding factor. 100% I'm going to listen to the JC5 MC830's and might even try a 3rd amp (something anything 4-7k) to just add to the comparisons. | |
| How much of High End Audio is Horn Speakers? As of right now I've been really interested in the JBL S3900, but always wondered about the horn/anti horn discussion. I'm a big fan of my JBL L100 75's, and the S3900 would be my jump speaker if I was gonna make the horn leap. I visually am not... | |
| What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please. I’m a Innuos Zenith MK3 4TB with Phoenix USB Reclocker (8-10k). I really do like it, but I way over bought considering the rest of my system. If you’re a vinyl guy you can get buy and enjoy yourself with a lot less. But price is always a big par... |
