| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Okay, I fired it up last night and listened a little. It generally sounded good. I did no AB comparisons and did not listen critically but tonally it is not bright and with a very easy to drive speaker (7.3ohm min impedance) there was no strain, ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I will use two sources depending on system it is attached too. I am kicking off with a 2Go/2Yu via a wired connection with a Clarus Crimson Coax cable. I think the cable retails for more than the amp. This is being served from my Antipodes Olad... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Mine arrived on Christmas Eve. I haven’t had a chance to open it yet. I will listen to it tonight for first time. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @ricevs i ordered a peachtree. Looking forward to comparing it to some different gear. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @agisthos I hear good things about T+A. Supposed to be a first rate unit. The fact you have a dealer who has both will make it easier. One thing I will say, you need to get a signal to the DAC. T+A is supposed to be best with USB. Weiss, the ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 @agisthos The Weiss is a bit more expensive than $7K. You can find a used 501/502 comfortably in this range. It is a great unit and the preamp stage is very good. You have the secondary concern about system matching though. The Weiss is super... | |
| Help recommend a good tube preamp Haven't looked at all of the responses but you should check out Linear Tube Audio's preamp. It is an ideal option. i have a customer who is running one with a Hegel amp and there is good synergy. | |
| Im looking for the next upgrade. I'm not real sure which way I want to go Help! An amplifier better suited to those panels will work wonders. Gryphon certainly makes wonderful amps and integrateds. Of my customers, the best match we Have found with MLS is AVM. The warmth of the MOSFET output stage combined with the raw pow... | |
| Neutral Dac? The most neutral DAC I have heard is the Rockna Wavedream. The edition and signature tonally are the same. You get more detail and an even bigger soundstage with the signature vs the edition. the thing about the Wavedream is the sound profi... | |
| When people upgrade from Thiel Ultimately you want to pick a speaker that is going to deliver more of what you love about Thiel. I would specifically want to know what your preferences are. That said, Kef, Focal, Marten, and Vivid are common upgrades with Vivid delivering... | |
| Musical Fidelity MX-Stream first listen @jerryg123 I am working on more dealers for CANOR. Last year it was just me. Now we have 4 total. Will add more through time | |
| Musical Fidelity MX-Stream first listen @fuzztone ProJect and Musical Fidelity are owned by the same company. I will have to look into what is different beyond the logo and the outer case. I really hope it is more than $200. @jjss49 i have not listened to iFi. I hear great things ... | |
| Advice on a tube tester I don’t stock that tube. Quicker getting them straight from Jac. I might not charge you shipping. | |
| Advice on a tube tester I am an EML retailer. I stock EML tubes when I can get them. That is my primary relationship with Jac. I don’t so too much more in terms of parts and transformers. | |
| Advice on a tube tester I just bought a new Amplitrex. It is easy enough to use and "computer mode" greatly enhances the set of functions. Not cheap but well worth the money. That said, I sell a lot of tubes and this unit is sort of essential for me to be able to comm... |
