Looks like it is back...for now!

Day 3: Nothing better than starting the day with a cup of coffee, firing up the stereo and watching 4 hours of day two of F1 in Bahrain. This year Apple TV has the broadcast rights on F1. Now, F1 is brought into the home of us yanks as the rest of the world has been able to watch pre season. I...

Thank you Mike for the encouragement and taking the time. I know this is a busy week for you.

I went to the Magico YouTube channel and it was still there. Not sure why it shows unavailable ..

I decided to take the Pink Faun plunge. This is quite a investment on my part. But, what got my interest is/was the Roon Core server/Steamer approach. It also gives me some concerns of having just one box do all the work for my streaming. I just stream from Roon with a lifetime subscription...

That's a different design.

Jim was a real gentleman and a wealth of knowledge.

Hi again Rex. I think the benefits i'm hearing with the subs may come from their low power output. These are only 325 watts each. And they just add enough mid to low bass as to give them more of what the S5s do. Now, the S5 bring more to the listening than just mid to low bass output. But, for...

Thanks for the great information on Pink Faun. If I go with the Scion it will be next year. When SVS was just a start up I had two of their 20-39 passive subs that I ran with a Carver Cube amp. They are hard to beat for the money. I pulled them out of the system when I got the S3's. I didn't...

“If you are looking for an analytical "hifi" sound, then I don't think you'll like the Scion. If you prefer musical and organic, it's wonderful.” I have no idea what that means in the real world. Sounds like an AI statement. But, thanks for the input!?

I've had a few weeks to think and rethink my time listening to both the S5s and M7s and the impressions they made on me and my system. My gut tells me the only way I can elevate my current system is to bring in the Pink Faun Scion. But, that is a pretty big jump in my financial investment. I...

Very cool. I see in the manual that it is recommended to plug the unit straight into the wall. Is that to have better control to the power supply? Oh, welcome. And by the way which one is Pink?

Thank you very much Mike. Just what I needed to see.

I've been unable to find a good picture of the back of the Pink Faun Scion. Their website has as far as I can find only one picture of the the Scion and it's a angled view of the front. I've seen on some videos a passing shot of the back and its connections. But no clear shots or views. I've...

Looks like you have plenty to keep you busy Rex.
