| Finally!! a mid priced (affordable) MQA DAC Meridian's new 218 is only $995.00 Great sounding DAV. They are also releasing a new unit at cedia with an Amplifier built in for $1500.00 Amazing sound. isnt this a zone controller? Not ideal for a stand alone dac imo | |
| Finally!! a mid priced (affordable) MQA DAC The Dragonfly Red is quite possibly the least expensive shot at MQAand coupled with a Tidal subscription you truly get a new window into recorded music...it's for real and inexpensive what more can one want reallyI should have been more clear in t... | |
| Nuforce STA200 After a week of playing, I think the amp has probavly leveled off as far as break in is concerned. The amp is totally superb. Even if I paid $1300 ( original msrp), i would have been thrilled. I really cranked it up the other day to uncomfortable ... | |
| Finally!! a mid priced (affordable) MQA DAC There are two Pro-Ject "Box" components I'm interested in. The new MQA dac and this all analog, simple preamphttp://www.box-designs.com/main.php?prod=preboxds2analogue&cat=ds2line&lang=enBoth are not available, as of yest, in the US :( | |
| Finally!! a mid priced (affordable) MQA DAC Audio Advisor does not have many of the Pro-Ject Box audio components. | |
| Nuforce STA200 I am now shopping for a high end pre amp-power amp for my main system (the STA 200 is in main system until ---then it moves to a second system with my NOVA Pre). I slightly adjusted speaker position for the wider soundstage that the Nuforce brings... | |
| Job Integrated Amp. Although discontinued and only few remain (as of now), this, I believe is a lower watt version of the Job 225. I have been quite impressed with tonal character https://www.amazon.com/NuForce-STA200-160-watt-Power-Amplifier-Swiss-design/dp/B01552AK... | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! https://m.aliexpress.com/s/item/32796101584.html?spm=a2g0n.search-cache.0.0.7f25570fz2xqnI | |
| Need a preamp with tone controls! This may not be an option, but here is what I’ve done. Since I purchased a new amp, minor things like noise really stands out ( zu omen def speakers). Before, I had a Pioneer EQ in my chain for night time listening ( minor low end boost...mainly u... | |
| Nuforce STA200 I’m thinking of the Schiit Freya preamp. Can run in passive mode as wellhttp://www.schiit.com/products/freya | |

| Nuforce STA200 It will improve for another week or two. It’s an exceptional amp and bargainI was totally surprised with how the low end seemed to go deeper and wider. In the past when I have purchased equipment, I’ve noticed a slight high end "taming" (especiall... | |
| Nuforce STA200 After 24 hours of continuous power and background music playing, I did another round of listening. I was thrilled with the amp out of the box. The amp seems to be slightly more "silky" and the low end seems to have "blossomed" FLOABT. I did not th... | |
| How Is MQA Fareing? MQA needs a midline non USB ( $400. - $1200 ) DAC. All I keep hearing in TAS and SP is MQA, MQA, MQA. You either have low end USB portable Dacs. Or high priced Dacs ( Brookly, Manhattan) . Even Meridians mid priced "direct dac" is not MQA ready.... | |
| Nuforce STA200 I'm happy with the way it sounds out of the box. I'll be curious , after more hours of usage, how characteristics will improve. |
