| How do you train your ears? Ok Live music is not your stereo! I am a professional musician and an audiophile and I can tell you that imaging, depth, and positioning are all tricks and trade of stereo. Never have gone to a live show and closed my eyes to see if I could place ... | |
| Copland CTA504 tube amp - how good are they? I have a 504 and love my amp. It is mated with a wyred 4 sound dac and it is worth every penny if you like smooth warm mids and very rich..I reccomend either ts 6550 reissues or eh 6550,s and for the pre section use the new jj ee803 which is a bee... | |

| tubes in a Copland 504??? CAN you use KT-88,s??? Please thats the main concern now. | |
| Wyred Dacs--Thoughts? also if you own the w4s dacs you need to set the IIR setting to 70k. The explaination of this feature is difficult but its roughly a filter and it is default at >50 so it filters everything below 50 kilohertz out to reduce noise but if you have... | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? Meitner STR-50 Plus modded. Or any Meitner 55, 100,101. All meitner amps are the best over all sounding amp ever. Its just a great sounding amp.

| Wyred Dacs--Thoughts? Philefreak I just got the Dac-1 and WOW you are right! Ive never really had a great dac persae but I dont think I could do better unless I added a zero to the price tag of 1000$ to 10,000$. Thats the only way I believe I could get much better. | |
