| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? @jjss49 am i missing something here? Not sure I understand the question given the title of the thread. | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? Hi All,I was using both a Theta ProBasic III and a Soekris 1421. I purchased a used Mojo Audio Mystique V3 on Audiogon and, after six weeks listening to it, decided it is simply superior. Better depth of soundstage, more detail without any harshne... | |

| Thiel Owners @brettmceeQuality Ranking’ of all available Thiel speaker modelsI owned both CS3.6 and CS5i at the same time. The 3.6 is a good speaker but the 5i is at a whole higher level. More refined and cleaner. To my ears, its like a veil is removed when li... | |
| Thiel Owners @thoft ...How was the levinson blah...I dug up this old thread regarding my amp search: "Parasound Halo JC-1 for Thiel CS 5i". Hopefully, it is not too boring and my ignorance not too laughable. I guess my memory must be going as I seemed to like... | |
| Thiel Owners @john_5912 I'm currently between amps and now am trying to find reasonably priced, high powered, and high performing amps that will last. The 3.7's, similar to my 5is, need an amp that can double down to 2 ohms. It took me a couple of years to ... | |

| Vibration - What are the Main Sources? Okay everybody, You all are much smarter than me.The isolation springs for speakers baffle me as an improvement in sound.We go through all of the effort to get the speakers in the correct place - distance to front wall, distance to side walls, dis... | |
| Thiel Owners @Jefant...Bass is certainly not bloated/flabby regarding Thiel Audio...I have CS5i's and certainly agree that their bass is tight and also nuanced...if you have a good source (and amp). My old thinking was that the source would impact the treble m... | |
| Jazz Music Question @qdrone May I suggest Shapes to Come by Ornette Coleman. Yeah , I have that one and enjoy it. 1959. | |
| Life After Technics SL1200 Mk5 @atmasphere OK- so 3 feet of that is 100pf. If the cartridge spec is for 150pf the phono section should be set to 50pf. @lewm The 12 AX7 used in a common topology typically will add about 50 pF or more to the capacitance seen by the cartridge ... | |
| Life After Technics SL1200 Mk5 @lewm9 What is it that your Wife does not Accept? I "inherited" a full wall of Harden Cherry shelving/entertainment center that the wife wanted out of the main floor.Pretty stuff and all hardwood. BUT, it does not translate well for the turntab... | |
