| amazing transformation...how? Hi Could this be a " mind set' situation? On your initial listening session you were excited and expecting great things only to be underwhelmed and dissapointed. When returning a few months later you were expecting to dissapointed and had set ... | |
| REL S510 or S812 Hi I have 2 x S812s complimenting my Kef Ref 5 speakers. My room is 19 x 21 or 400 sqft. The Rels are brilliant choice for 2 channel which is what I use them for 90% of the time but they will do HT as well. As ssid the independent setting is re... | |
| Coda #8, Pass XA25, or Schiit Tyr to replace PS Audio M700 Hi I owned the M700's and was impressed with them. When I upgraded to Kef Reference 5 speakers and a DCS Bartok streamer/Dac/Pre I naturally wanted to upgrade the amps. I went with the BHK 300's which I am very impressed with and will keep for ma... | |
| Breaking news! Jays Audio is moving to Texas and takes interest in McIntosh Do you think he checked with his mate Mikey that it was 'ok' to like Mcintosh 😁 | |
| Excellent Solid State or Hybrid Monoblocks Recommendations I too have a pair of BHK 300 monos powering my Kef Ref 5's. Front end is a DCS Bartok. I haven't got round to tube rolling yet but one day .... What I can say is I push my system very loud at times and it just keeps on giving. The amps barley g... | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. I used to watch this guy regularly but he has crawled so far up his own backside I don't bother now. What really bugs me is that he trashes so many other highly regarded companies simply because they are not exclusive enough. If you don't like a... | |
| DAC/Streamer/PreAmp Hi, I can only speak for the DCS Bartok (non-Apex)as someone has mentioned. I was becoming disillusioned with separates because you constantly upgrade with increasingly underwhelming results. I borrowed my friend's Bartok and it lifted my system t... | |
| Used PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock or (2) new benchmark ahb2 bridged? Hi Jim Still running my 300's with my Kef Ref 5's. I use a Dcs Bartok connected via XLR straight to the amps. A very simple set up. It works well and I am very happy with the sound. The amps have tons of power and even listening at high volume... | |
| Upgradeitis I have Kef Ref 5's Dcs Bartok PS Audio BHK 300 monos. Rel S812 subs x 2 I know how good your Kefs are and to upgrade them is going to take some serious dough. Why don't you consider a couple of subs, that's what I did and I couldn't be happie... | |
| Looking for intermediate-step Streamer: better than BS Node and not @ Bartok level pricing Hi Can you push yourself to a used Bartok? This is what I did. I have absolutely no regrets. I was previously forever upgrading Pre amps, dacs and streamers now everything is so much better and far simpler. It connects straight to my balanced amp... | |
| Help settle a streaming argument! You could just buy something like a Dcs Bartok which is what I did. This has a high quality streamer, Dac and Preamp. It is an impressive bit of kit. No more messing about with separates. Mark | |
| Room Too Dead I had he same problem as you for years, room is a converted loft over a bungalow. 20' x 20' with no hard surfaces. Sound insulated, thick rubber backed carpet tiles, lots of soft surfaces and no brick walls. It was a really dead space. It all chan... | |
