| The New Amati G5 or Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene @jomonhifi Please understand that I'm in no way implying that Sonus Faber is inferior to Joseph Audio by any stretch of the imagination. But for my taste, the Joseph Audio is spot on. It just does everything right. I currently own Perspective2 Gra... | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL @sagur80 Do you find the U 280 musically engaging, immersive in the music experience , non fatiguing ?. Aavik claim their low and mid tiers DACs to be warm , musical with good soundstage. Would you agree given your own experience with the U 280... | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch Is this the Kenjit-lite version of speakers? | |
| The New Amati G5 or Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene I think Joseph’s speakers are as good as any Sonus Faber. They absolutely do not compromise on anything. As they say, different strokes for different folks. I’ve heard the Pearls a couple of times and I will take them over any Sonus Faber any time. | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch I was only comparing the Borresen to CSS by Jay. Sorry didn’t mean to imply anything beyond those two. I’m sure your speakers are world class too. Peace! | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch Let's see ... on the one hand you have a speaker designed by a world class engineer and designer with an impressive pedigree. Someone who is really known for pushing the envelope when it comes to cutting edge technology. On the other hand, you ha... | |
| Holo Red Streamer @nymarty Thank you for validating my understanding. I was kinda hoping that the Red could do both, both oh well! I need to do more research on how much better the streamer only function is compared to cheaper alternatives like Bluesound Node or if... | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL @sagur80 Just to be clear, I own the Aavik U-280 which is basically I-280 and D-280 in a single chassis. I’ve never heard the Aqua La Scala so not sure if I can offer my opinion when it comes to that particular dac. When compared to Denafrips Ter... | |
| Are Harbeth Super HL5 XD right for me? @jdougs First of all congratulations on acquiring a world-class speaker! In my home office, the SHL5+ are also placed roughly 13 inches out from the front wall and they sound pretty damn good. But, of course, these speakers will perform even bette... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @jjss49 and @krelldreams Thank you for a real-world perspective of how these speakers behave in normal-sized rooms. My room is around 20x15 with 12 foot ceilings and fairly well treated. Based on what I'm able to glean from your experiences, I thi... | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses @-wolff- For me, it took about 10 days for the Purple fuse to show it’s true and full potential. I was running the component for almost 10 hours every day. If you’re still not happy, try changing the direction. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? There are other reviewers who compared the Gustard R26 to Ares II and preferred the Ares II as being more organic and balanced. I’ve owned it for two days now in my second system, and so far I can say that it’s very good for the money. But giant s... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? I will quickly reply to melm's previous post and then shut up about DACs .. I promise :) To begin with, I want to emphasize that I'm in no way questioning the integrity of the gentleman who compared Musetec to Tambaqui, or the veracity of his cla... | |
| Holo Red Streamer I'm also interested in the Holo Audio Red for my second system. I'm planning to use it with Denafrips Pontus II DAC. The fact that the Red has an IS2 output is a big plus in my book. However, based on my understanding, the Red cannot be used as a ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? In the interest of transparency, the guy who compared the Musetec with Tambaqui became a distributor for Musetec right around the time he shared his thoughts on these two dacs. Of course this doesn't necessarily mean his comparison is biased, but ... |
