Luxman 509X vs Mc452 + preamp I recently looked at the tech of the PS Audio DS with Bridge (have heard this many times). I have had other DAC's with volume controls and was never happy as with a dedicated analog preamp. The PS Audio CEO has gone on and stated that the DS sound... | |
Luxman 509X vs Mc452 + preamp A few preamps that I am looking into instead of the c900u (to lower cost) are:1) SimAudio Moon 390 network player (cost and features are attractive)2) Mola Mola Makua supposed to sound great with the m900u 3) Anthem STR preamp which has DSP and su... | |
Luxman 509X vs Mc452 + preamp @eziggy I had the same reaction to listening to the 509x and then the m900u. A shame from my wallet that I heard the m900u since I would have been more than content with the 509x. | |
GIK Acoustics in home consulting - Los Angeles in May I did my GIK treatments using photos and measurements. The GIK tech was in Atlanta and I was on the West Coast. Best audio investment I have made so far. | |
Moderately priced audio I had the AudioEngine 2 speakers as my MAIN and only system for 5 years. Yikes, those were not fun music times but at least I had music. I was space and noise constrained living very close to the ocean. I am away from the ocean now with more space... | |

Canadian Preamp+DAC+Streamer Faceoff Thanks, appreciated your informed opinion on this. The reason I am getting the Persona 3F (from my local Santa Barbara dealer) was triggered by your posts. I will get back in touch with you when I get ready to spend some dough.. | |
Canadian Preamp+DAC+Streamer Faceoff Thanks for the feedback, especially the NAD and Anthem comparison. I have been discussing with one of your customers the Code #8. He has given it great reviews to me. He also owns the Anthem STR preamp and also likes it with the CODA #8. He was al... | |
Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 @mifanning Curious to what you consider a non-private sale? | |
Your favourite Rush albums? When I was in high school RUSH filmed the video for Subdivisions in my school. I used to be an uber geek who would point out my school locker in the video. I don't think the girls were impressed by that. Remember videos. | |
Your favourite Rush albums? I love Clockwork Angels. Saw them in Vegas for that tour and was hooked on the disk. | |
Moderately priced audio Listed below are some great sounding audio components that I owned or have heard in the recent past. Not the very best but seriously good, especially compared to 20 years ago. Comparably priced products I owned 20 years ago do not come to the leve... | |
Anything wrong with PS Audio DirectStream DACs? A question for you PS Audio DS owners. I think I knew the answer to the a few years ago but want to double check.Can you connect an Ethernet wire to the DS bridge II and then stream from a computer using ROON? I currently have a microRendu Etherne... | |
Anything wrong with PS Audio DirectStream DACs? @a1uc Nice post, very interesting. I recently heard the Luxman m900u and the c900u with TAD ME1 speakers. I just loved it, so much so that the m900u will be the amp I get. I am hesitant to spend on the Luxman c900u preamp because this system is f... |
