Agree, you can't favor an amp without considering the system, even the room. Nagra reference amps with matching preamp on Rockport Lyras well treated room primarily diffusion, Arrakis with VTL Siegried (same as slowgeezer), but also fantastic with CH Precision M10s and matching preamp, phono...

Agreed and on the to-do list. I never turn it on, however I never heard any audible problems when I used to use it on low from reflections, but what I do hear is a slight humming of the motor as the fan is getting old. That, plus, the ceiling is partially treated and a fan has to either go or be...

yep, lots of boxes. Is there really a benefit to dual mono DACs + a separate reclocker when there's also a reclocker in the streamer? Don't know, but I love the sound. ;-)

Yep, I know, I need to replace it, on the list. Also back wall pick coming..

Thanks. The chair is an aviator chair, very comfortable IMO.

Great cartridge, mine's still breaking in. ;-)

Long overdue to list my system. As many of you, it’s been a long journey that continues. Quick history: I’ve been into audio gear since the 80s (yes I’m older 😉) when I was a kid. My first, real speaker shown as my avatar. MA FRM-1AX. I had a hiatus for a while and back into it for the past ~20...

Dedicated 2 channel room, I do what I want, same for my office and the system in it. ;-)

Late to the game, but got a 4 point 11 recently and loving it. Running it with a Koetsu Rosewood Signature.

Modern artsy pic. :)

Thought I'd share my system. I'm always in the process of upgrading something, most recently moving to the Audionet Max amps. And a long time audiophile in the game on and off for many moons. Thanks for being so welcoming at AudioShark!

I recently purchased Audionet Max amps which I love, simply fantastic. I'm curious about the Pre G2. I'm currently using a Purity Audio Silver Statement which I find is a great match but might the matching brand preamp be better? Also, anyone have any experience or know whether the Pre G2...

Looks like they might have used the basket and voice coil and that's it. EA used the stock 120mm magnet while Magico doubled it with, "a second matching magnet on top for complete control of voice coil movement". For the cone EA used the stock ceramic and Magico uses their own Nano-Tec cones...

Aqua Acoustic Quality LinQ Network Interface review July 2020 For starters, this review is almost as much about the SOTM Neo (+ capacitor upgrade) streamer + the Sonore LPSU combo as it is about the LinQ, allow me to explain. As we have all experienced...
