| What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have? Born and raised in NYC I yearned for the mountains so I took upskiing, camping, hiking and hunting early on. Competitive long range shooting has been fun the last 5 or so years. (I can shoot the volume knob off my Auralic Vega at half a mile)! B... | |
| Can Pass XA60.8's drive Revel Ultima Salon2's without their tongues hanging out? I need to pay .....well, tribute to the Tributes because they (and the current system) are open, articulate and musical. And the three 6" woofers produce a surprisingly deep, fast and punchy bass. The Beryllium tweeter sparkles just right too. I t... | |
| Can Pass XA60.8's drive Revel Ultima Salon2's without their tongues hanging out? 60.8s give me better separation of instruments and depth and width of soundstage. I think the 250.8 had just a hair more of the uppermost treble. Al you said a mouthful! In "Jaws" speak I'm gonna need a bigger boat! 😁 | |
| Can Pass XA60.8's drive Revel Ultima Salon2's without their tongues hanging out? An interesting aside: With my 250.8 I cranked it a few times just see what it had. It was loud for sure and never left the 25 watt class A! The 60.8s stay in class A until 122 watts peak. What do you extrapolate from that? | |

Ironically listening room requirements weigh heavy in my future living quarters. That being said My preference would be to have headroom to spare instead of just making it. Than... | |

| Tinnitus remedy? I'm a life long shooter, the last 5 or 6 years competitively and a definite coffee fiend. No wonder no matter how much dough I throw at this hobby I can't tell the difference! : ) | |
| Music Server larry, I recently put together a system based on Michael Lavorgnas reviews that has worked wonderfully. My cds only number a couple of hundred. Since I did not have a NAS I started out with the QNAP TVS471. Roon core is on the NAS on a 120gb SSD, ... | |
| XLR-Balanced Hybrid Hi-End Cable I use Analysis Plus Solo Crystal copper and Silver Ovals that are silver over copper oval braid. The copper alone are punchy in the bass and drums (I like!) The silvers a tad more open and slightly laid back. Using Solo Crystal inter between sourc... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? Interesting examination: 57, 35, as soon as this next system hits pay dirt!Why the quest? Why not?I've had what i call a scratch the surface system. Combo 2-channel/ home theater. Anthem AVM 40, Anthem MCA 20 and 30, OPPO 95, Paradigm Studio 100s... | |
| Jumpers I've always scratched my head as to why one cable run and jumpers would sound different from two runs of cable since they are usually coming of a single set of amp binding posts. In the case of jc1 monos there are two sets for each channel serving... |
