| A deeper more holographic soundstage. RoxySome details of your room size and a picture of your speaker set up would be helpful. Small changes to the speaker position such as toe in might even help. | |
| Warm romantic & detailed Jeff,I understand what you are going through. I used to own the Focal 1027be and no matter what I tried, I had the same conclusion as you are having. The Focal beryllium tweeters were quite annoying especially on poor recordings. They were very de... | |
| Conrad Johnson or PrimaLuna @jjss49 I own the Cronus Magnum 3. I bought mine with GL KT77 tubes instead of the stock KT120 tubes. I feel the KT77s have a better midrange and soundstage. | |
| Conrad Johnson or PrimaLuna I owned the PL Dialogue Premium prior to the Rogue. The PL was serviced 3 times in 4 years and the problem was with the auto bias section. Each time a power tube lit up and blew the board. Rogue uses individual fuses for each power tube in case th... | |
| Conrad Johnson or PrimaLuna I would consider a new Rogue Audio Magnum 3 integrated amp also. Made here in the US and great customer service. It has 100w per channel, a phono section and a headphone jack. Very easy to bias the tubes and it comes in 2 finishes. If interested c... | |
| Caveat about the Cable Company return policy Without telling me, they dropped me as a customer since I didn’t buy some of the Synergistic 30 day trial period items like fuses.

| The Mhdt lab Balanced Pagoda DAC @arafiq The Orchid does support 24/192 so you can stream 24 bit. I had my Orchid modded by Grannyring with better caps and resistors which brought it to a new level. Even before it was modded it sounded great. You can’t go wrong for $1200. If you... | |

| The Mhdt lab Balanced Pagoda DAC @janehamble (Jeremy)What’s your problem?I don’t understand your responses here on audiogon. You make accusations without any proof and see no benefit to your comments.I actually made 2 purchases based on teajay’s reviews since we share the same ta... | |
| Non Analytical Sounding DAC Upgrade- Budget $1,500 or less My MHDT Orchid was recently modded by Grannyring (Bill) and all I can say is wow. The sound is cleaner and clearer without sounding glaring. The soundstage is larger and more holographic. Right now I’m listening to Jessica Williams Live at Yoshi’s... | |
