| Best of the best Integrated amps in 2018 Audion 300b Silver Night Anniversary. 8 watts of pure tonal bliss driving my Zu Soul Superflys into their sweet spot with no issue filling a 16x18 room. | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming I had a very inexpensive Definitive Technologies Streamer and knew I needed to upgrade. I tried the all in one Lyngdorf and the sound quality was slightly less than the discrete components I had at the time. I tried a Border Patrol DAC with the De... | |
| Can I play Tidal on two devices at the same time? I have no idea why it’s $26.99. I had it about a year ago and it seems like I paid $20 so then when I signed up this time there was no free trial and this was the price. We had Deezer for $13 and you could play up to 4 devices at a time but my new... | |
| Can I play Tidal on two devices at the same time? Well I’m paying $26.99 for hifi, if family “hifi” is only $3 bucks more then it’s a no brainer. Rick | |
| Lumin A-1 or Lumin U1 I’ve been reading posts about digital network streamers and came across this one of many regarding LUMIN. I would have to say I don’t put a lot of emphasis on professional reviews because they are ALL positive in on way or another. Reading what en... | |
| DAC recommendation I’m going to be upgrading my systems DAC and streamer and will be letting my current DAC/WiFi streamer go for a couple hundred bucks. It’s Definitive Technology W Adept and has served me well. I’m hoping for a significant improvement going up 10x... | |
| Coming out of the blackhole called work...retirement Congrats on retirement, I’m a few years behind ya! I would agree with suggestions here of “let your ears decide what’s best for you”. My wife and I flew from Michigan to Colorado to the RMAF show and had a blast listening to all that’s current. W... | |
| Speaker Suggestions for 300b SET Amp I am using Zu Soul Superfly speakers with my Audion 300b and rarely turn the volume past 9 o’clock. Very nice match. Looking to add a Border Patrol DAC to upgrade the digital side for a warmer analog sound. Rick | |
| Is there a big difference in digital streaming devices? So I guess I’m looking to find out 2 things:How does most people obtain good quality digital music to listen to?What gear are you using to process this music so its ready for your power amp?I have a pretty good analog setup and find the digital me... | |
| Help me narrow down some speaker choices Zu Soul Superfly speakers are very easy to drive at 101db sensitivity. Nice low end punch excellent midrange (vocals sound amazing!) and great highs with plenty of detail. The Soul Supremes have a touch more high end. | |
| What 2 channel Amp would you Buy for $6k? If you’re looking for tube gear, I have a Decware Torii Jr that sounds good and recently upgraded to Audion Siver Night 300b Special Edition. I’m loving the Audion paired with Zu Audio Superfly (101db) speakers. With only 8 watts I usually only di... | |
| Looking for a Phono pre around 1K PS Audio Nuwave for $999.00 works for me. I'm using it with a Denon 103r MC going into an Audion 300b amp and Zu Soul Superfly speakers. Sounds great to me. | |
| What to upgrade next? Wow Aintitgr8 that makes sense. Maybe that's why I can't hear any difference between the $35 and $750 I.C.'s. I also tried a PS Audio AC12 power cord and there was no difference. The speaker cables I have are Zu Mission with the BU3 connector on t... | |
| What to upgrade next? What I am looking for is better separation and clarity and dynamics from the upgrade. Yeah I forgot to mention the phono stage I am using is a PS Audio Nuwave. You just never know where the weak link is until you try something else. If i do decide... | |
| What to upgrade next? Yes we are in the process of changing our generic entertainment center to a custom walnut slab unit. Not necessarily specifically made for audio but it is very solid and wifey approved. The TT came with 3 point isolation pointed feet so hopefully ... |
