best SACD player Ok, here's the deal. I have a Modwright modified Marantz 8005 with all the upgrades. What can I do better the front end. I'm not into streaming or computer audio and will only use Cd's and Sacd"s, Luxman or Esoteric around 10K. or so. I know ... | |
Marantz SA-10 @cmach thanks for the circle back! I still I have my Modwright and will be comparing it to the Luxman D-07x when it is is broken in. My other thought was a Holo May KTE dac with a PS audio transport, but I'm trying to reduce my "boxes". The tru... | |
Puritan PSM 156 connecting Puritan Grounding Products? Why not use the ground master city. It just plugs into your outlet and connects to the PMS 156. It was intended to be used without an outside grounding rod. | |
Experience with Townshend Seismic Podiums on Concrete Floor (they're great) You can see the instructions from Townshend for the Podiums on my virtual systems page. | |
Experience with Townshend Seismic Podiums on Concrete Floor (they're great) I use the Townshend podiums on a second floor wood constructed floor with carpet. I tried spikes, no spikes, spikes into a limestone slab and herbies gliders. The Townshend was the only one that cleaned up the bass and added the benefits of a gr... | |
Herron VTPH-2 added to system (almost) I'm sure you will enjoy it. I have the latest Herron pre amp and mono block amps in my system. I have been using Keith's electronics for many years. They never break and sound wonderful. I won't change them unless I go to an integrated solutio... | |
Warm and accurate bookshelves that can handle volume A couple of different directions. Dynaudio Heritage Special that probably prefers solid state electronics. Gershman studio II a warmer speaker for those that don't like grating treble. | |
Endgame Vocal+ DAC Help: Terminator Plus 12th vs. Chord DAVE vs. Holo May vs. Weiss502. I thought the Goldensound review was done very well when discussing the Chord and Holo dacs. In the digital world it’s sometimes confusing since it changes very quickly and today's star may be an "also ran" in the near future. The Chord products a... | |
Open Baffle Experience Unless you listen to box vs. open baffle you can’t really comment. I heard the Spatial Audio X4’s at the audio fest and thought they were wonderful and could easily live with them. Oh yeah I have 20k box speakers. | |
Help Building an Audio Room Just as a side note there was an interesting article in the June 2021 Stereophile magazine in the industry update section from Kongens Lyngby of Denmark that quoted studies from Jens Holger Rindel a Danish acoustics software company that the room ... | |
Looking at best option for 20-25k for DAC Streamer combo Perhaps one of the Playback Designs units. | |
Spatial X5 speakers I heard the X4's at the Pacific Northwest show this summer and was really impressed by these speakers. Even in a hotel room they sounded wonderful. One of my favorites at the show. | |
How did you get started in this hobby It started with the Beatles "Meet the Beatles" on my cheap GE all in one portable player. My parents bought an all in one Magnavox big stereo "box". My first purchased system was Dahlquist DQ10 speakers, Mcintosh 2205 amp, C28 pre amp and an B&a... | |
Old CDs and records The owner of a vinyl store thinks that CD sales are on the rise due their pricing relative to LP's. What goes around comes around. | |
Holo MAY KTE DAC/ Kitsune Hi FI, Lynnwood Washington Why don't you contact them and ask the question? |
