| don sach's custom kt88 tube amp Gents,I have been using Don's amp in my system for a few months, but with the advent of the 100+ degree weather here in CA, I swapped back my excellent McCormack SS amp into my system to ease the burden on my air-conditioning load, as any KT88-bas... | |
| Audirvana will not recognize new HD music file - need some help The meta art from the old HD is still appearing when I start Audirvana and surprisingly some of it plays event tho the source (i.e., HD) as been disconnected. I don't understand how to delete it. | |
| Audirvana will not recognize new HD music file - need some help Yep, I did that but it still won't play. It seems to balk when I try to sync it to the new location. | |
| Helmhotz resonators for audiophile at almost no cost and without calculus... WFT, GK has met his match in terms of bizarre audio tweaks. I didn't think anyone could be as far out as GK, but this cat clearly is. Kindred spirits, they are. Way too damn funny. | |
| Paul McGowan's (PS Audio) autobiography -- "99% True" now available for $4.99 on Kindle snapsc,Only three books in the que? I get Bookbub offerings every day for excellent ebooks for a dollar or two so I have a ton of books in the que. I shared a bit of Paul travails in my early life and hence the book was very relatable.

| Paul McGowan's (PS Audio) autobiography -- "99% True" now available for $4.99 on Kindle I stayed up very late and read it cover to cover, it was that interesting. In spite of numerous set backs in his life and career, he continued to press on towards his goal in remarkable fashion. No bitterness, only joy and a love for his fellow ... | |

| Speaker wire... Diy? This is an amazing thread based upon a guy who is looking for $17K speakers cables. Am I the only guy to see this as query designed to pull our chains! What am in missing here? | |
| Oppo 103 comparison with an Ayre Codex Noble,You well described the attributes of the 105. I sure wish I had snapped up a 205 in the end, but with some simple mods to my 103, my ears tell me that it is a great player. I dunno, maybe there are CDPs in their former price range that ar... | |
| Oppo 103 comparison with an Ayre Codex tgrisham,I meant to say that I I wished that Oppo would have made an "audio only" CDP without all the bells and whistles for video. | |
| backert vs sachs preamp I have no experience with Backert Labs gear so I have no views about them, but for me I have never heard a passive pre that I preferred over and active pre. I got the third or forth preamp that Don made and just a couple of months ago sent it back... | |
| Positive experience with Ayre Chesebert,A "shill" for Ayre? I only wanted to bring to other audiophiles' attention the excellent customer care I received from Ayre. We evidently both think the Codex is a great DAC... I simply took the time to share my impressions with potent... |
