| New Project RS2T transport @petieboy12003 A friend of mine used a Bricasti DAC for about 4 years before getting a MSB DAC a few years ago. I thought the Bricasti was a very good sounding DAC. In my opinion a RS2T and Bricasti would be an exceptionally good pairing sonical... | |

| Integrated Amplifiers - Esoteric F-01, Esoteric F-02 or Dan D'Agostino Progression @ghasley I am doing very well and hope the same with you. 😊 Charles | |
| Integrated Amplifiers - Esoteric F-01, Esoteric F-02 or Dan D'Agostino Progression @kennyc This forum is for music lovers and those interested in high-end audio gear. It is NOT a place to air your political agenda aka backstab a manufacturer because they don’t match your "political" expectations. It’s not only divisive, but r... | |
| Sound stage of studio recordings @cleeds So many live recordings are multi-mic’d just like many studio recordings that I find the imaging is often just as bad. Agreed! With multiple microphones the the end result can be all over the map (Figuratively and literally). Cha... | |
