Apple iOS 17.1.2 and Audioquest Dragonfly Cobalt
@fuzztone Actually I got it to work. I took a trip to the Apple Store, borrowed a USB to lightening camera adapter and it worked. So now I have to shell out $27.00 for a new adapter and I'll be set! I don't disagree with what you said however, tha... 
Need help setting up new turntable
I would try different settings to see what sounds best. I mean, you’re not going to blow anything up. Or at least you shouldn’t.   
Choosing Inexpensive Headphone Cable and Other Possible Modifications
@soix I’m using a pair of Sony closed back headphones that I bought around 1997 for a few hundred dollars. The only way I can tolerate them is with an equalizer and to say they are limiting is an understatement. So anything that my friend (and spe... 
Choosing Inexpensive Headphone Cable and Other Possible Modifications
Thanks, @larsman for your input. If I could find a Black Dragon cable used, yeah that would be ideal. I’ve also been considering contacting Patrick Cullen as he built me a pair of jumper cables for a pair of monitors I used to own. @mahgister Yes... 
My Portable Audio Rig
Hey All! I appreciate the input. I’ll just say, I do not want over the ear headphones on while I’m working out. A DAP would be great but the good ones are expensive and I like the convenience of using Qobuz, though I often listen to the same recor... 
My Portable Audio Rig
@llg98ljk Yeah, wireless earbuds would definitely help simplify matters. I wish Audioquest made a Dragonfly with Bluetooth. And Cardas uses cables for their earbuds because their cables sound really good. I look like a freak with all these things ... 
Looking for a Warmer Sounding Phono Cartridge
@kevemaher Yes, I can guarantee the Grace is 47K.  
Looking for a Warmer Sounding Phono Cartridge
You might consider the Grace Asakura One MC. Also, I saw a review about Grado’s highest level cartridge and reviewer said it’s the best sounding cartridge he’s ever heard. I believe it sells for around $30,000.00. I’ll take three!  
Any Love for the Grace F10 L Moving Coil Cartridge
You might consider the Grace Asakura One MC. Also, I saw a review about Grado’s highest level cartridge and reviewer said it’s the best sounding cartridge he’s ever heard. I believe it sells for around $30,000.00. I’ll take three!  
Time of Day for best Sound
@tonydennison Yes, the ASR price tag is hard for many folks to justify even if they have the expendable income but believe me when I say that it does not disappoint. A battery powered generator may offer benefits. I’ve never tried one personally b... 
Time of Day for best Sound
Because of electrostatic Mylar panels, the cold dry air is supreme. As for what time of day, doesn’t matter due to the fact that my amp runs off it’s own battery and power supply units. I use a passive PS Audio line conditioner for everything else... 
You’re An Independent Dealer, Which Companies And What Products Would You Represent?
@mijostyn Cape Cod potato chips cost twice what Wise potato chips cost.  
You’re An Independent Dealer, Which Companies And What Products Would You Represent?
@vdotman by the way, they carry both of those brands as well as Naim and Bryston. Thanks for chiming in!  
You’re An Independent Dealer, Which Companies And What Products Would You Represent?
@realgoodsound the dealer aforementioned does carry Cambridge Audio and Rega. When I asked about Cambridge Audio, the manager just slightly laughed and said it's directed towards a specific market. I guess that means directed towards the mass majo... 
Speaker cable recommendations
I had Patrick Cullen build me a pair of jumper cables back when I used dynamic speakers and they were perfect in every way. Recently, I auditioned a $900.00 Audioquest Blizzard power cord for my DAC and it made a huge difference but not in a posit...
