| Does Goldnote have any US online dealers? Rutherford Audio in Co. Just bought a DS-10. Dac ,streamer,analog pre. | |
| Network streamer with hard drive Aurender A10. They pop up used for 3500 4tb hdd Does everything and sounds very good. AKM dac so much smoother than the Lumin’s MQA. Fantastic Conductor app which is the best native app out there. | |
| Shout out your favorite Audio dealer!! Shout out to Paragon sight and sound in Ann Arbor,mi. Class organization | |
| Is there any Streamer/DAC/Preamp good enough to replace a dedicated standalone preamp? Lindemann Musicbook source. High end dac-streamer w analog pre-amp featuring a Muses volume control ( also used in pass labs preamps). The Source is a new model and will be out in the next mos. check out reviews of the Musicbook DSD series. Same f... | |
| Affordable alternativ to the PS Audio DirectStream DAC Look at the new Musicbook Source. Around 3200 euros. Great analog pre amp /dac/streamer. Made in Germany so you shouldn’t have any trouble getting your hands on one | |
| Affordable alternativ to the PS Audio DirectStream DAC Street price on a Directstream w/ bridge is closer to 4500 so compare that to a 4500 Lumin T2 which is not discounted as heavily and the PS Audio is a no brainer I sold my T2 as the sound gets fatiguing after a bit. Aurender A10 is very listenable... | |
| Paradigm Persona series How do the Persona owners have their jumpers set up? Speakers cables on the mids or the bass?I am going to play around this weekend and see if their is an appreciable difference on the 5f’s | |
| Paradigm Persona series Everything is system dependent. The Audience where a nice match for my previous Magico S3 The Personas in my room where a little on the bright side. I didn’t give them much time and if I let the Personas break in they probably would have been fi... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Funny in my system I sold my Au24SX interconnects and speaker wire when I bought the 5F's . Just way to lean. | |
| Paradigm Persona series "No need for any kind of “tuning footers” or anything like that. If they’re sounding bright, you need to get them positioned properly and acoustically treat your room. Things like ISO acoustic Gaia’s are nice and all, it the higher end more inert ... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Nice review. Unfortunately 4 days are certainly not long enough for proper break in. I am assuming they where new? The Personas need 300 hrs per Paradigm and I can attest this to be true. Beryllium takes a long time to settle. I would like to see... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! Unfortunately the Yeti 400 will not work for me. I got about 50 minutes before the fan came on when powering an Aurender A10. The fan stayed on about ten minutes and then came back on 30 or so minutes later. It did sound pretty good but I had to ... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Ok. Let’s all agree that the Personas are on the bright side . Numerous test show the bump in the upper registers. Easily fixable I knew my amps and music server/dac where on the warmer side . Tube pre. Good to go. I just swapped out the Audienc... | |

| Paradigm Persona series From Stevie Ray to Daft Punk the Personas Rock. I heard the 5f’s at Axpona with the Macintosh 600 watt monos do 1 k peaks and filled a 30x60 room with 14 ft ceilings without a quiver We where sitting 15 ft away measuring 100 dB peaks. The Pers... |
