Congrats! Looks impressive! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thank you Eric. It means a lot coming from someone as successful in life and business such as yourself. Both guys were named Bill. Both in the industry for decades. One even outlined our failure and ultimate demise in detail long before Covid....

What speakers? I would take a Luxman 590 or 509 myself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Agreed. He was. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That’s why we have Clarisys. Florian worked on Apogees for decades. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes. It’s just a sample to show. These are the copper returns. The ribbons are segmented into traces and the signal has to come down again. It’s copper foil in lieu of cheap copper cables. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Tweeter and midrange. In the Auditorium, it has a separate tweeter ribbon, a separate midrange ribbon and a separate bass ribbon. All models above the Minuet have external crossovers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This is the ribbon tweeter/midrange from the Clarisys Audio Studio Plus Neo. Note the 6 traces. The Minuet has 5 traces, the Studio Plus has 6 traces and the Auditorium has 7 traces. The more traces, the wider the ribbons. Conversely, the...

53 press coming now. FAR more than any other show. So many debuts at the show this year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I really liked the A200’s when I heard them at David’s, a seductive sweetness. But they did run out of gas when pushed. I would imagine that’s why the following iterations have had much more power. If you’re shopping integrated’s, some...

Thanks so much for all that info, given its price, the Musetec seems to be outstanding. I live in Canada, and I found a dealer near Chicago that could get them. I was a bit apprehensive of buying a Chinese Dac from the US, while living in Canada…so...

I am curious of your thoughts on the Musetec 005 Dac, I was close to buying one of these ( unheard) last year, based on all the good things I read about it. At that point I was using an IFI Zen stream with Sbooster BOTW power supply as my streamer....

X1 is amazing. It sounded the best in our Lumin shootout, but I still have a soft spot for the engagement factor of the P1 . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Awesome! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

You can also increase/lower the volume with your IPad/IPhone. Personally I think the volume is easy to control with the P1, no issues with low volume listening either.

Agreed. IMO, GaN is the Class D that sounds best. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Not sure that’s accurate. H30 - $17,000 (last price) H30A - $18,995 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The H30A and P20a will be powering the Clarisys Minuet’s at the Florida Audio Expo in room 915. I’ll let you know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Still have my old Bosch. Have used lasers forever. Sure beats the measuring tapes from years ago. Multiple laser levels on tripods to find absolute center of a room is next level. Think: matrix! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Agreed. With less “stuff” and no absorption on side walls, tweeters inside could be the best. Regardless, there is flexibility for placement and no right or wrong. We have them 3 feet from side wall and 6 feet from back wall (after taking this...

I have been down the road of a separate streamer and Dac with several different variations from Naim,Chord,IfI etc. I even had linear power supplies on the various streamers and Dac’s. Even though it can sound really good, it gets really messy with...

I know DZNUTZ told me he used two of the Lumin amps with his X1, so maybe he can chime in. There does not seem to be much input on actual pairings with the P1, maybe there are not many out there? I received a call from my dealer today that my...

Ha! Playing hockey. Coaching kids hockey too. I love it when people say “but you haven’t seen any of X TV show? (ie. Yellowstone). LOL. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thank you very much. Appreciate the kind words. The preowned audio business and audio distribution also keeps me busy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks Mike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

If you’re in Canada, I think it’s best to speak with a local dealer. But for now,!I would find an older VAC integrated like the i160. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes, shop is expanding. Thanks. But we are waiting on our new warehouse to be finished. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes, Pass is a great match. Imagine XA600.8’s driving them? Wow! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This. If they are indeed Salon 2’s and not the ugly Salon 1’s, then you will want to upgrade your amps. Look for a used pair of Bryston 28SST’s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

No, you need an Ethernet cable. No wifi. Wifi is not ideal for best sound. The wifi dongle is for the remote. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes I pay for the full version of Tidal, MQA, videos, everything they have to offer. Qobuz is not available in Canada, or I would probably use it.😔

Today I updated my P1 to the latest firmware and played around with Spotify for half an hour. To me it sounds pretty decent, just using the free version right now. I did switch back to Tidal right after, played the same songs, and it was better for...
