A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC @marco1 @calvinandhobbes , I sold the Pontus and the Iris as a package. The Pontus was a good friend while here, and the Iris raised the bar. I used the T-15 without a Denafrips DDC. Actually have a Gustard DDC from when I had the X26PRO, and ... | |
Backart Labs Rhumba Extreme version 1.4 Linestage Tubed Preamplifier @dougthebiker , didn't want to hijack the preamp discussion so sent you a PM on the clean power issue you commented on. Robert | |
Backart Labs Rhumba Extreme version 1.4 Linestage Tubed Preamplifier @njcardave , sent you a PM re: your setup. Thanks, Robert | |
Fiber Optic Cable @erik_squires I didn't want to get crazy with this, but... Ted Lasso, Slow Horses, The Morning Show, Severance, Silo, Bad Sisters, Bad Monkey, Shrinking, Masters of the Air, Sugar, Manhunt... to name a few. Cheers, Robert | |
A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC I had a Pontus 15th + Iris DDC and it was terrific. Silly me, I wanted "more," so I sold it and bought the new Terminator 15th. More expensive and further up the product line is better, right? There was a big difference between them and in hind... | |
Fiber Optic Cable I spend lotsa time streaming on my home theatre, fed by a 1GB ethernet service, with fiber connecting an FMC to a network switch for the HT/ audio system. I have an Nvidia Shield and new generation Fire TV Cube, picture and sound are very good wi... | |
Backart Labs Rhumba Extreme version 1.4 Linestage Tubed Preamplifier My focus is on home theatre, then two years ago I added a separate two-channel path for music with a streamer, DAC and preamp. One of the stops along the way included the Backert Rhumba Extreme v1.4, which replaced a PS Audio BHK preamp. As good... | |
My Denafrips Aries 15th has too much mid -bass, anybody else?? I had the Pontus 15th in combo with their Iris DDC and really liked it. The Iris was a relatively small added investment, icing on the cake. Pontus was very lively, toe-tappingly musical with ample detail. I was advised the DAC needed ample bre... | |
My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review @verafiaudio Mark, I appreciate your feedback and am willing to give Graphene a whirl. Will contact you privately. Robert | |
Silnote audio or Morrow audio I have Silnote Anniversary II Master Reference speaker cables and various levels of their interconnect cables, and find them to be very musical and dynamic. I also have Morrow subwoofer cables and couldn't tell much difference/ improvement from t... | |
My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review @sgordon1 To my consternation, I've found additions (tweaks) like the SDFB or upgraded power cords have resulted in subtle to almost imperceptible changes, to the point I questioned whether I could notice any difference at all. That said, I too... | |
My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review @ozzy Sorry, did not see your post until today. I started slow with the SDFB and opted for the included super sluggo fuse, which offered a bit of warmth (always good this time of year). I felt that if something was lacking, I could always upgr... | |
My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review @ozzy I was remiss and should have mentioned that I gave VeraFi another shot and bought the SDFB when it was on sale recently. Attached it to my Mac amp and was pleased to hear "more" there: bigger, bolder. Overwhelming, no, but better. I have... | |
My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review My audio/ video system runs from a single 20-amp dedicated line using 10ga (30 amp rated) wire from panel to outlet. I am in a rural area, my house is 225+ years young and the stone foundation has 6-inch hand-hewn posts at the base of the walls, ... | |
Cardas Clear XLR interconnects I've purchased single cables from The Cable Company for the center channel speaker in my home theatre. I suspect most dealers offer this option. The cost is half of that for a pair. You are effectively buying two single cables, albeit different... |
