| Schiit Freya+ Tube Stage is Silent Nothing really. I think your Marchand is fine. I was just eliminating ANY possibilities. As I said, my Freya+ had its tube section stop working while the passive and SS kept playing fine. I sent the unit to Schiit and they fixed it really quick. I... | |
| Schiit Freya+ Tube Stage is Silent Send the Freya signal into the Tyrs to check. You want to remove as many possibilities as you can while you troubleshoot this. | |
| Schiit Freya+ Tube Stage is Silent That happened to mine too. It was just a resistor inside the unit that blew. Repair cost was $50 +shipping. Less than a new set of tubes. | |
| Why for the life of me I can’t stay awake when listening to Music? Yeah, we can call that a "Cool Cat Nap" | |
| Why for the life of me I can’t stay awake when listening to Music? This happens to me all the time too. I don't think it's a bad sounding system, but rather a good one. The funny thing with me is I always wake up as soon as the music ends. Not between songs, but when the CD or playlist ends. This does not happen ... | |
| Signal Generator There are lots of downloadable WAV files that should do the job. | |
| McIntosh amp dilemna The Coda #8 is a fine amp, but AG member YYZ has owned both the Coda and the Schiit Wotan. He states the Wotan is just as good as the Coda, and at a much lower price (list $2,000). I also own the Wotan and can state it is a great amp. | |

| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @hilde45 This should be printed out and nailed to the front door of your nearest Hi-fi store. I am very much anticipating your comparisons of the NAD M23 vs. the Pass XA25 Thanks. | |
| Comments please on: NAD M23 vs c298 vs. other newer Class D Well, I am very interested in the outcome of this evaluation. Please don't "Ghost" us on the results. I'm not saying you will, just hoping to hear the results from your well executed trials. | |
| McIntosh MA 12000 Remote Changing Inputs On My MCD 12000 CD Player Or, you could just block the remote sensor on the CD player. Nothing permanent, just something in the way. | |
| 2026 Florida International Audio Expo Feb 20-22 @soundfield Drop the microphone. | |
| Looking for a audio club near Naples, Florida Well I know there is a big club just north of you. The Sun Coast Audio Society. They even have a part in hosting the Tampa Audio Expo. There might be some members that are somewhat near you. Check them out. | |
| Best Value McIntosh Integrated Amps I would think they have similar gain, only the 352 will play 3db louder as you keep turning the volume up. Plus the MA352 gives you the 5 band tone controls. | |
| Best Value McIntosh Integrated Amps Is there a big difference in sound quality with the Mac SS amps that have the extra transformer. Does this transformer alter the sound in any way, or just let you use almost any low impedance speaker? |
