| What's up with Vinnie Rossi L2i SE? I also think more of these sold than the poster may believe. So many glowing reviews across the board and it’s right there in a pocket of sound, design, options and price point that is an appealing combination for people. There will always be ‘tha... | |
| Rogers LS/35A Classic Mini Monitors Reviewed ! WOW I’d like to come back to the list someday of all the speakers mentioned in this thread... | |
| $5k-$6K DACs w Roon? Bricasti, either M3 or M1 are great musical DACs and also have excellent implemented and sounding network connection capabilities. Many have said they’re better that way than any extra box added. | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp One of my most favorite Dead videos ever is the 6-21-71 Chateau d’Herouville Herouville France. Excellent time capsule of a great performance. And the YT account Voodoonola (there is also voodoonola2) seemed to me at one point, to be the official... | |
| Holo Audio May DAC @audionutjeff, might want to look into a possible new version of Dave coming along in the near future. I seem to remember a comment that Chord might be working on a new Dave. | |
| Enjoying New CD Transport Purchase @winoguy17 think tight and textured; the opposite of round, boomy...or dare I say ‘fluffy’ ;) (a more conventional word for the latter would be “wooly”) | |
| Holo Audio May DAC Also, I feel a designer deciding to use silver internally in certain locations is little different than using silver ICs throughout a system. | |
| Holo Audio May DAC @hchilcoat , I was going to say similar as cal; that it’d be a lateral move, with preferential differences. Lampizator has that ‘lit from within’ character that you won’t get with Termi or the May, being ss. Also Lampizator has a vivid and alive h... | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp Agree about the early ‘70’s. 1970 and ‘71 have some darn clear sounding recordings. I so wish it didn’t take the crew almost 6 months after Bear went to jail to get it together and start recording without him or we’d have more from ‘71. And yep, ‘... | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp @acefqctory, have you listened to much from 1972? Barring personal opinions —and I don’t want to turn this great thread into a debate— but it’s hard to deny there is something special and something unlike any other year happening in ‘72. A telepat... | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp @doug714 Jerry the cat!! That’s awesome! | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp @doug714 thank you. Spares me from embarrassing him; something I was cocked and ready to do this morning. Some people are just simple minded with no nuanced thinking. Unlike Jerry. | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp @rh67 how was working with (or more like ‘under’) Owsley? Assuming you got to. Was he as bossy as they say? I have a funny theory that the Dead had that lil bit of extra magic in ‘72 because Bear (RIP) was in prison, so his abrasive vibe wasn’t sw... | |
| Jerry Garcia’s McIntosh amp Y’all sound like you may already know but there’s a great book called Grateful Dead Gear (with lots of photos) that chronicles everyone’s rigs and their changes. | |
| What are all these metal cans/pods sitting on top of electronics? I’ve tried Herbies Audio Lab Stabilizers (or two stacked). Pre, DAC or ss amp, but I always end up removing them after some time. Same outcome every time; a bit more clarity and delineation but slight negative affect on soundstaging (within, not o... |
