I don't own Acora or ARC, but whatever the particulars, I was glad to see a storied brand like ARC rescued a few years ago. Both firms seem to have a loyal, satisfied customer base. I wish them continued success. Those of us who are paying for all this-lowly consumers-benefit from a thriving...

I've seen a lot of less expensive equipment at shows, much of it really good. It also seems that most YouTubers (not necessarily credible, but many are) cover entry level gear. No surprise there-many more customers for cheaper gear, more potential clicks. I've also noticed that the magazines are...

Its never great when craft companies start charging hands. Sometimes it works but its difficult to maintain the ethos that built the products that built the company. I hope it works out and maybe reducing the investors will help.

I have no bone to pick with you at all and you are free to post whatever the moderator will allow. I think you have interesting observations on audio issues and often share your perspective. When the nasty starts, which gets in the gutter quickly I would just suggest it doesnt gain respect for...

Its so easy to hurl personal insults ftom behind a keyboard. Takes neither courage nor brains. Doing so creates an unpleasant, toxic environment on what should be a fun place that is all about this hobby we share. Mostly, i think people who engage in that sort of behavior don’t understand that...

I didn’t intend to be dismissive. Everyone likes something different and while I have not chosen to go to class de route, I have heard class D amplifiers that I thought were very pleasing.

I'm not a Class D guy but I understand the attraction. I've heard Atma-sphere Class D that sounded really good. Heard AGD with Fischer & Fischer speakers at CAF and it was a head turner-really good. Implicit bias is part of the human condition. Its been proven over and over by studies from...

Any additional information concerning availability date for the Studio DAC and Transport?

$59.5 I think

I’m not blaming anyone thats not my place and its not my forum.

See what I mean?

I have a faith although I'm far from an impeccable practitioner. I have political views and most of us do. Neither has any place at all in an audio forum, for God's sake (see what I did there). Because even though there are countless outlets for those who feel compelled to share their view of...

I hope so, the cascade is a bit rich for me. Maybe something right in the middle.
