| can i get a significant dac upgrade over my Lumin d2 for 2k? I ordered the Gustard R26 last night. I have been reading looking snd driving my self nuts for more than a year. I came down to Holo Spring, Denafrips Pontus, Gustard x26 pro, Sokris, and the I heard about Gustard doing r2r discrete. In my search ... | |
| Gustard R26 My take on reviewers is like everything in advertising today. I figure most critics of a reviewer are other reviewers. They are all fighting for status and position. Just like in my business I sell on my merits snd the quality of my product. I com... | |
| Two amps into one pair of speakers I did this once in high school. Did not blow anything up but did end up sending smoke signals to the tribe across the river. | |
| Rant against the industry with hopes for discussion on positive change There is not an industry on the face of the earth that is not full of shady companies. The only difference is that this industry is not federal regulated and you better pray to God that it never is. Federal regulations amount to taxes and corporat... | |
| Placement of Components Rule from Vandersteen is shortest speaker wire as possible and all long runs will be component connections. I run mono blocks so each amp is right next to the speakers and long xlr from pre amp to each mono. | |
| Amp Internal Wire Would it not make more logic to just buy a new amp? Then if you are going to replace the wire should you not replace all other components and the power supply. What about replace all the connection points.? Again just buy a new amp! Your logic is... | |
| Where do you want your system to go when you go? Truth to the question is and as a financial advisor it is the same response I give to clients. When we talk about collecting social security benefits the question is to start right away or delay. Some times it make sense to delay but they all come... | |
| Advice on Improving a Wifi-Mesh -> Ethernet Setup? Look into the final leg going into your streamer adding a switch that will convert the run in to fiber. As soon as any noise hit fiber it is eliminated. Small green computer co has many options. | |
| Recommendation on speakers for listening to live music Bose 901’s!! All of their marketing was that the reflected stereo everywhere was base on their live music delivery research?😂 | |
| Comment about SS and Tubes @clearthinker I am sure you could find it on a sound effects disc. I have never look or experimented with it. I just remember reading about the scissor test over 30 years ago. It was when they were just starting to release main stream home theat... | |
| Comment about SS and Tubes I remember reading a long long time ago where an amp designer said his design was not just about the power at hand and being played but it was about the power on reserve to handle the demand when needed. He’s said the best test was the sound of cu... | |
| Gustard R26 @vennesch there is a preliminary review out so far but no detail just two sentence comment. Left it with “ more to come”. | |
| Many of us want to Changegrade instead of Upgrading @waytoomuchstuff I did look into bass traps but my wife could not tell if her car was running or not! then I concluded that no garage upgrade can make the 901’s sound any better or even any different. | |
| How did 70s rock music transition into 80s music? IMO all music was under the thumb of a few corporate media companies that picked the winners and losers. You hear it over and over in documentaries from artists. The record labels had way to much say in the direction of the music. How many bands n... | |
| Many of us want to Changegrade instead of Upgrading I think most of us are already doing this with out calling it. Example when in my office I listen to my office system that consisted of two stereo streaming speakers with class D amps. Then in my car I listen to my Mark Levinson system feed by my ... |
