    Conductor v5

    I did not like V4. I do not remember why. I am still using V3 on my N30SA. It works great. I do not know what Aurender is trying to accomplish with new versions. FYI, I am only playing stored files. I am not streaming so any changes there are not relevant to me.

    When is your pair getting delivered?

    Quick Take from TAS Review of Block Audio Mono SE (April 2025)

    What's not to like? They’re huge, heavy (190 lbs each), run hot, and burn a ton of power at idle (450W per chassis). Price is ~$60K/pair in the U.S. That is before the special stands required. I sold my 75 pound integrated because it was just too much for me and friends to handle anymore. I...

    Apod thread size

    I think Apods are 1/2 x 13. I could not find any adapater that size on Amazon or McMaster-Carr. I need to adapt to 1/4 x 20.

    Apod thread size

    Pretty hard to get an adpater without knowing the thread size. I also need to know if the threaded part is removeable. :unsure:

    Apod thread size

    What is the thread size for Apods? I am considering them for another brand speaker.

    Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Isolation

    George, From the look of the Wilson Diodes, they would penetrate carpet and contact a hard surface. Is that the situation in your system? That is probably the difference. Titans float on carpet even with carpet spikes which do not penetrate to a hard surface. I had a similar experience with...

    Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Isolation

    I am a big fan of GAIAs on hard floors. But when I tried them with carpet spikes on thick carpet and padding over concrete, I felt the sound degraded. Sound Labs floated on the carpet instead of being anchored.

    GAN amp/Mytech

    I think there is also a plain top option.

    What Comes First????

    Forgive me. I forgot the question was what to spend the most money on. The thread title is "What Comes First????" My thoughts were physical, not fiscal. ;)

    What Comes First????

    SPEAKERS! Speakers must work for the room and the listener's musical preferences and tastes. Would you choose the same speakers for classical and heavy metal? Would you put Wilson Maxx or Magico M9 speakers in a bedroom? The only component in my system that would make the most dramatic change...

    5 System Test Tracks

    Thank you. I do not know why my search on HD Tracks did not find it.

    5 System Test Tracks

    I can't find that CD on Amazon or HD Tracks. I find that a frequent problem with lists of favorites. Often the CDs are not readily available. I did hear a couple of MP3 tracks from that CD via Amazon. They made me want to leave the room screaming.

    How much interest in the vintage look?

    I have a McIntosh integrated waiting to go into my 2-channel HT system. I tried it the other day and hated to take it out because it looks so good there.

    You need bigger meters. ;)
