| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results From a Valin review of the MSB Reference DAC. I use this DAC in my system with no preamp. I run my phono pre into its extra balanced input. Get the same results as describe by the reviewer; "I’ll let MSB explain its preamp module (and if you h... | |
| Ken Fritz article Just another WP hit piece. | |
| Did your system getting better the more money you spent or more experience you gained? There will always be something better than you have. Once you think yo’ve got there you’ll bet bored and want more. Learn to be happy with what you have. | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Wilson Sabrina X or Magico A-5 would be safe bets. Moreover listening at dealers is way overrated. Not your room or electronics. I've owned many speakers that I choose from reviews and manufacturer reputation and was NEVER disappointed. | |
| Nowhere to hear speakers and amps anymore! @aldermine You are spot on with the manufacturer supported "listening hubs" throughout the US. I have often thought that would be the solution to the paucity of dealers. The reason it won't happen is it would likely kill off the remaining dealer... | |
| Perlisten D212 Subs (2) in the house. @ja_kub_sz I have never encountered an error message on my subs that have now been in service for over a year. I have talked with Perlisten in the past and they are responsive and helpful. As to a high pass on a full range floor stander I unders... | |
| Perlisten D212 Subs (2) in the house. @ja_kub_sz. When I upgraded my speakers and no longer needed them in my 2 channel audio system I put them in my Home Theatre system. Mine are the D212's so are not comparable but I love them in this application. They replaced my M&K 350's. A... | |
| Perlisten D212 Subs (2) in the house. @rolox What was the purpose of your comment? Was it to provide important insight into a product or to congratulate someone on a new purchase? Why would you insult people and then say enjoy. Do you feel better when you do this? | |
| New classe delta preamp and classe stereo amp? I own the Delta monos and the older mode ampsl. Love them both. I drive my Wilson Alexx V's with the Delta's. Fan noise is a myth. Very reliable. I will say when my HVAC system comes on I can hear that. Highly recommended. | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? @jl35 That assumes markets are efficient. High-end audio is the poster child of inefficient markets! That is what this and other similar threads should focus on. Its not how much we have to pay for a particular piece of gear rather do we get what... | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? "We Have Met the Enemy and He is Us" | |
| "Diminishing Returns" High audio is an addiction where you "think" more is better. Everyone has a point of audio satisfaction that maximizes their enjoyment. Spending more will not necessarily increase that enjoyment. The industry is designed to instill want and diss... | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? What I'm looking for is value at every price point. Value is individually determined. What I don't like is that I can't often find the most value within each price point because the market is inefficient for hifi products. Thus I end up guessin... | |
| Speaker placement Quandary Ok just purchased Opus 3 as a download. Can you steer me to the best tract for soundstage depth. I see 17 tracks. Is there more than one disc? Thanks | |
| Speaker placement Quandary This is a great thread. I have been obsessing with my speakers distance from the front wall. They are out about 4"9". I get great soundstage width and tons of imaging but depth is still lacking. I think next I will tweak toe-in to see if that help... |
