| So, a reviewer just said something I need to talk about. Well I would suggest since he was reviewing audio equipment wouldn't comments on the sound make more sense? I mean sure great playing makes music more engaging but in the sense of objectively reviewing some piece of gear it matters less. | |
| The Horror Hey audiodidact don't despair man look at it this way zero in on exactly what your system is lacking and fix it. I realize this is easier said than done but a similar happened to me after my first Capitol Audiofest back in 2017. After hearing a bu... | |
| New Accuphase Amplifier Experience Congrats on the new amp jfrmusic and that is a serious overall system upgrade it must sound amazing! | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? I've not heard the Cornwalls but I quite enjoyed the Razz pretty sure it was v1 if not then v2. Having also heard the Rivals I'd call the Razz fun and a touch unrefined but just in comparison to the Rivals which are much more $$. Not sure if that... | |

| Pre Amp break-in balance issue Great outcome joeyfed55 I usually find weird issues like this to be operator error somehow. I know that’s been the case with my dumba$$ more than a few times. 🤣 | |
| where/who builds the Borresen / Aviik Denmark gear? Try sending a message through their site perhaps? I doubt they are being intentionally vague. | |
| Amp vs Preamp To me it is the preamp but of course the amp matters too. Common sense says get a good preamp and marry it to a good amp. ;) | |
| where/who builds the Borresen / Aviik Denmark gear? Copied from the Audio Group Denmark website. Handcrafting & Innovation We design and handcraft everything by ourselves. Everything, from the loudspeakers’ driver units and the casting of the silver rings to the cables and the inside of ou... | |
| Using two Luxman integrated amplifiers together As the others say try it you own both components so nothing to lose. Curios myself which combo will sound best. | |
| What gear do you want to demo? An original Kondo Ongaku is something I'd love to hear. |
