| What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey IMO, the main problem the OP had in his journey is changing that many pieces of equipment in such a short period of time. It made it nearly impossible for him to learn what piece of equipment did what. The way he did it had to lead to total confus... | |
| Best sounding FM table radio ever made... FYI, it's not a stand alone radio, it is hooked up to my main system. | |
| Best sounding FM table radio ever made... My Sangean HD radio is right down incredible broadcasting the UT radio station here in Austin. Just as good as high quality streaming for under $200. No joke. | |
| Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined? I did not renew my subscriptions with both TAS and Stereophile. Too much speaking up products of companies who advertise with them. Don"t need that. | |
| New Pink Floyd release Zzzzzz..... | |
| How much should I spend on a new DAC Jamnesta brought up a super interesting option, the brand new Gustard a26. After looking into it, it would be my first choice if I move away from the x26. Gustard is really putting the pressure on the competition. | |
| How much should I spend on a new DAC @soix Thanks for spending time talking to me about the values of the r26. If you read all the reviews on the Amazon link you provided, you will see a couple of very negative ones regarding obvious sound issues probably due to some manufacturing ... | |

| How much should I spend on a new DAC I agree that separate streamer and dac would do you a lot of good. However I would put the brakes on the r2r recommendations for a dac. I had an Ares II and then bought a delta sigma Gustard X26 PRO and ended up selling the Ares II. No doubts that... | |
| The problem with absorption panels- it kills the fine details @pedroeb It would be so helpful to see your system and listening room. It might help understand your disdain of room treatment better. | |
| You know when you are dealing with a BS company.... Funny, thank you. | |
| The problem with absorption panels- it kills the fine details @emergingsoul That's why after you take care of the resonance in your room with the absorbing panels, you need to install diffuser panels to regain the clarity you just lost, but you are now achieving that without any resonance! I know, it's a d... | |
| Aftermarket headshell leads Not any different than carts mounted directly on tonearm. A tiny pair of pliers always does the job easily for me. To the advice of jasonborne, I ordered a PLX-1000, getting it Friday. Always wanted a direct drive TT, will hook it up to my Puffin ... | |
| Buyer anxiety NEVER do business with anyone unless they have at least a handful of positive feedbacks. And that goes for any site. |
