    Good day all, I’m looking to move my Moon 390 probably for a Hegel P20 or 30 if I can pitch it. It will be matted up with the Moon 760A and will pick up a lumin D3. I’m looking for that open...

    Re: Lumin T3

    Thanks Mike for posting.

    I’m looking at trading my sim390 in for the T3. I don’t use any inputs, stream only and use Roon. I have a 760A for a power amp and all Siltech into focals. Anyone...

    Re: What are your reference cables.

    Siltech 550i, 550L, 2X SPX-800 for power cables.
  5. Re: Cables for new - dCS - Gryphon - Magico - system

    twin micro series vs Siltech 550 series. Not even close. However if you fancy acoustic or vocal music the crystal are laser fast and really detailed.

    Re: Iso Acoustic Footers

    my Gaia 2’s opened the bass and mid range but sounded off on carpet. It wasn’t until I put a set of their carpet spikes on, found gold at that point.
  7. Re: Cables for new - dCS - Gryphon - Magico - system

    sister company to Siltech and no where close to it. Had some crystal but Siltech blew it away.
  8. Re: Cables for new - dCS - Gryphon - Magico - system

    I don’t have that quality of gear bryston instead. However I do have Siltech 550 across the board and the SPX-800 across all my gear. I went to the top with cardas, across the board upper...

  10. Help between pre power vs intergrated

    I’m down to a Bryston BR20 and a used power amp on Canuck or 700i V1 simaudio, and a LUMIN transport D2 or T1 on the used market. I know no one has heard the BR20 but from what we know of Bryston it...
  11. Re: High end audio predictions and wish lists for 2021

    I’d like to see more moderately priced intergrated amps that aren’t detuned, so the separates have a sound advantage.
    More streamers with better sounding internal dacs.

    I’m leaning to a Hegel 390 as a one box solution. There is a Roon update coming anytime as a end point. A few I have talked to all say this will walk on the moon but also keep up to my bryston...

    Streaming vs dedicated CD player

    Lumin mini with sbooster via Siltech golden ridge 2 AES into a Bryston BDA3. If I put this Siltech cable on a new bryston CD3 which one would win for straight up sound quality.
