Cocktail Audio's New and latest X50pro Audiophile Music Streamer/server...Any Love?
@justjames72, its close. The X50pro is not fully broken in and haven't done much  critical listening. I will make that judgement in a few weeks. 
Help me choose an integrated amp to pair with Anthem MRX 520 receiver
I have the Anthem STR pre and power amplifier and love them with my Persona speakers.. I hear the STR intergrated is also great.  
Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
@grannyring Thanks for your information. I had everything set like you mentioned and I'm pretty sure i did everything correctly, but you never know. I will give it another try after my subs are in and everything is broken in. One thing that I am c... 
Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
@aniwolfe Thanks for the link. I had already watched the video and I believe I did the room perfect correctly. I will give it a try in a month or so when the subs are in place and everything is broken in. I'm in no hurry as I'm really liking the s... 
Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
Well, my 3400 arrived today and I have to say I’m pretty impressed with the sound with just a few hours on it, mind you that my Paradigm Persona’s are also brand new, and not yet broken in. Believe it or not, what least impressed me was the room p... 
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
@hybrid81 I heard the focals aren't the best choice in small rooms. Do you agree with that statement. My room is 12.5w x 14.5d with 7ft ceilings. That worries me a bit. I would be using them with the Lyngdorf 3400 that should be arriving next week.

@hybrid81 how do you like the  Focal 1028be? I thinking about purchasing the 1038be. They are heavily discounted right now.

I just purchased a 3400 to see what all the hype is about. I should get it next week. This will hopefully be replacing a Metrum acoustics Ambre Roon endpoint to Audio-GD NFB7.77 Dac to Krell EVO 202 preamp to Halo JC1 monblocks. I hope all the h...

This  Lyngdorf 2170 sounds very interesting. I'm currently in the market for new amps, this may just fit the bill and save a lot of money. Can anyone tell me if it has a theater bypass input as my 2-channel rig and surround system share with the ... 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
@jayctoy  the only thing that scares me about the Elac Adante is I think my tube amp may have a problem driving them as they are 4 ohm and a pretty low sensitivity 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
@nitewulf Yea, you maybe right, but I came across a local sale used as I don't have the coin to buy the Focus SE's new a 11.5K. They even delivered them to me, so I jumped on that deal and realized after they were just to big for my room. I heard ... 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
@vitop I think you will be ok with the reference near a wall. Mine are pretty close to the corners, and you can adjust the bass level.Oh, and to point out any flaws in the GE Reference, they have a very refined sound, but the the bass could be mor... 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
@vitop I forgot to mention, I did buy the Goldenear Supercenter XL. I'm mainly a 80% 2-channel music guy, so I'm not as crazy over the home theater sound as I am with 2-ch audio, so the goldenear center will be good enough for me. 
Tekton DIs or Legacy Focus SEs?
Sure @vitop . First let me tell you that the Focus SE an the DI's are very different speakers, but I did not care for either one for two very different reasons. First, the Focus SE's are very dynamic and "in you face". That can be a good thing and...
