How long does it take your tube amp to warm up? It is not only the tubes but also the transformers that need the warm-up. My Aric Audio pre and amp come to life regarding soundstage and 'air' after about 45 minutes. I believe speakers also need a little warm-up time. | |
magnepan Magnpan supports a dealer network. And most everything they produce gets sold through them quickly after production. | |
Aric Audio and my system I purchased Aric's Special about 4 years ago. Recently had Aric upgrade it to be similar to the Super. I use it with Aric's Transcend amp in rotation with a Pass XA25 depending on speaker used. I will likely have Aric upgrade the Transcend in the... | |

Estate sale Fuselier speakers for $370 but I know nothing about them. No apology needed. Now I believe I have your situation figured.

A reasonably priced DAC upgrade from Schiit Gumby Another option I forgot to mention would consider is the Black Ice DAC, tube output stage. | |
Is it worth it? DAC question I am likely missing something, but it seems the Node isn't recognizing the DAC. Call Bluesound, there must be a way to instruct the node to do that. | |
A reasonably priced DAC upgrade from Schiit Gumby I would try the MHDT Orchid DAC. Tube buffer output,. Possibly find a used Audio Mirror Tubadour III. I believe either would provide a presentation shift that would please you. | |
Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers That is a good deal for a pair of Carreras. | |
looking for an integrated amp in the $1500 range One option is to purchase an integrated amplifier with a processor loop (tape loop) and insert a Schiit Loki (~$160) in the loop for low volume listing. | |
Getting Back In - But Doing it Sanely Look into the Hegel 95 ($2000) or the 120 ($3000). Both have internal DACs to simplify system. |
