Yet another salesman type pseudo comparison without samples and only showing pictures of the apparatus. It would have been a better use of 20 minutes to properly illuminate the whole "stage" and see a few cables actually being connected. It is also less than impressive when a link to a home page shows 404 NOT FOUND.

I am using Magnepan 1.6qr I've owned for over 20 years (can't believe it's been that long) with a Rotel RB-1582 Mkll. Both are neutral which is what I wanted. If the recording is poor, that's how it will sound. With excellent recordings like with the XRCDs I have for example, it's a musical delight.

QUAD ARTERA MONO, PERFECT!!

It's a great product that adds tube magic without losing resolution. A good tube set is (new production) Tung-Sol 5AR4 and Electro-Harmonix gold pin 6992 and 6SN7. That sounds really appealing and then you can upgrade from there with NOS tubes like RCA 5AR4GY, Amperex 6922 and higher end new tubes such as Apos Ray Reserve or Sophia Electric, Grade A, Blue Glass 6SN7.

I had the Nautilus 804 floor standers fantastic one of my ever

Great if the author likes his vinyl. Sadly, quite a few of the factual claims he is making are not supported by evidence.

Does not sound natural unfortunately.

Even shorter guide to subwoofers: REL.

Looks like such a fun gig!! Playing with the best gear, making some of it better and listening to zeppelin! Y’all rock 😎

Why Rose'units do not support Amazon Music?

Ear fatigue

The correct hierarchy is platter - then tonearm - then cartridge (or source) - then amplification - then speakers. You can’t recover musical information from the backend if it wasn’t retrieved at the front end.

Hey Peter looking for a used Mark Levinson no 336 im running a Mark Levinson no 380s to possibly pair rhem together

yeah but the JBL 4312's or 4312 ghost sounds even better. They are in the JBL L112 area soundwise.

What a load if crap.

Think about this. Streaming servers are far away. The data/music is sent in pieces. Those pieces(or packets) hop from router to router around the world. Considering that fact, how are these devices going to make a difference? Keep in mind that switches operate the same way.

simple to solve ethernet noise, just use wifi. I love Apple Music lossless

For Kenny G… Bluetooth speaker.

The recent TAD Reference Ones are much better and more refined, less clunky.

1:55 ... Michael ... if you want real information from knowledgeable, credible sources the audiophile community is the *last* place you should turn to. From a purely technical aspect, CDs and Digital files have a much larger capacity for dynamic range, clarity, frequency response, distortion, etc than even the very best vinyl recordings. Plus, digital files do not require the RIAA equalization curve to first reduce then enhance bass... they're recorded flat. The truth be told, with proper mixing and mastering, CDs, even MP3s would mop the floor with vinyl recordings. _"But I heard a CD of my favourite music and it sounded like crap beside my vinyl pressing!"_ I'm betting it did. But not for the reasons people keep pointing out. Digital and Vinyl are mixed and mastered differently. Unfortunately, when the music industry found out how loud a CD could be, they launched into a loudness war, each trying to be the loudest track on the playlist. For years on end, every CD was mastered with virtually zero dynamic range and the 20% distortion that goes along with total compression and limiting. Of course that sounds like crap and the music studios didn't care. In the heat of this "Loudness War" I decided to back up my 60s, 70s and 80s vinyl collection by transcoding them into MP3/196 files. Once I tweaked and twiddled a bit, I got the levels right and I now have almost 4,000 files that sound exactly like their vinyl parents. *Exactly*, to the point where I can't tell them apart. Vinyl is no closer to the original performance than a FLAC file is. Neither came from a gaggle of microphones recording live performances. It is almost all studio work, and mixing console magic. In fact, some of the music you listen to probably could not be played live without a noticeable loss of talent. In the end, It is not the medium that matters ... it is the skill and talent of the studio crew, musicians and engineers that makes it all happen. Vinyl or Digital, your home system is just following a bouncy little signal who's voltage tells your amplifiers how to move the speaker cones.

Here's a thought .... Listen to what you're playing.... Stop listening to how you are playing it.

All you need is a good quality Amp with a built-in Dac and an apple box what else would you need? lots of lossless Music on Apple Music

What about the SPL Phonitor XE vs. ADI-2 DAC FS , for Dan Clark E3 ?

What's the benefit of taking digital recordings and making it analog?

Nice!

I can't vouch for the power cables, but I have a Nordost Frey II phono cable and Transparent Audio Signature speaker cables. Both are top-notch products. Prices are very steep but buying used can grt you some great deals. My power cables are PS audio. Yes, they do make a difference.

what a l. of bull. compare spotify with vinyl?? is the same as comapring a original full album with a top40 album.... Vinyl has at most 10bit of information.. you think new albums are recorded analog?? keep dreaming.. To avoid problems with cutting at high frequencies, everything above 15KHz was routinely filtered out. Result: vinyl sounds warmer because the high top end is simply not there. Cutting no longer happens from analog sources. On one hand, because almost no company has an analog archive* anymore or finds it profitable to send someone in** to search for the analog master. The idea that the recording would sound better after 4 mechanical transfers than the original is 100% subjective and at the same time 100% illogical. The 4 mechanical transfers: From signal via cutting head to lacquer or copper Electroplating of silver to matrix Pressing of matrix into vinyl Playing vinyl with a needle CD of those same settings would sound better than that 'beautiful' vinyl pressing. Simply by eliminating 4 mechanical steps. People who have never witnessed a cutting like to tell you their stories. If you love fantasy stories, they're the ones to go to. And now you know why vinyl sounds warmer. Warmer, but not...

Can you protect larger bookshelves by wrapping this way (say, for Revel M16s)? I'm a little worried about the grille cracking during shipping...

We love Apple Music lossless and hires losslesss. we can play at home, iphone, AppleTV, car Carplay.

I now listen exclusively to cd's and only use streming for discovery and for references while in music stores. I have records, I just prefer my cd's as of late!

I purchase new and used gear almost exclusively from TMR due to their integrity, service, product lines, staff... I could go on and on. Excellent well run company, and if anything goes wrong it will be corrected promptly. Pricing is frequently competitive with "no-return" peer to peer sellers but TMR has a no questions asked return policy which relieves much of the guesswork concerning, "did I buy the right thing"? (Helps keep the audio nervosa down...) Keep up the great work TMR!

i bought my pre, dac, transport & amps from TMR. they helped me put together my _end game_ system. appreciative for their help.

My brother and I have bought thousands and thousands of dollars worth of equipment from the MR and I wouldn’t buy used equipment from anywhere else in the country. Products Price and Customer Service is second to none

I’ve had a couple of purchases from TMR. I’ve been happy with the products, the price and the customer service!!

Very cool to see. I had a great experience with TMR and look forward to more of them.

Totally depending what kind of music you are listening to. We have “Maggies” in two different rooms and i prefer NAD amplifiers combined with them for the classical music/opera we are listening to. Sure - monster amps will probably sound better but won’t change the fact that the speakers are revealing bad recordings right away….with or without a high end amp connected to them.

Better than Krell at their peak with Dan there? I doubt it.

This is The Music Room's location in Erie, CO I attended this event, was very good! They are going to have more events with other audiophile companies in future.

Looks intriguing so this is at the music room in Colorado?? Hopefully I didn’t miss this at Axpona?

So funny the audience is so typical a bunch of older white dudes! Listening to crappy “Audiophiles boring music”

I don't understand why everyone is using gigawatt amps to drive their Maggies. I have original MG-IIIa speakers (refurbished once) and drive them with an old Adcom GFA-535 amp (100 watts/channel into 4 ohms). I can drive my Maggies to deafening levels - so loud I can't possibly be in the room with them - what I would call deafening levels - before the amp's clipping lights come on. This is in a 14'x22' room.

not being familiar with all the terms in hi fi ,i'm a bit confused the way SPL words their products ., is the " Control One " also a preamp that can be used with most hi fi gear?

Do you recommend this model for a small room? dimension 11m2 ,I'm currently listening to the p3 model there ,but I'm curious how he will cope in this size compact 7XD .

I would like to see an I2S Input on these Rose streamers as the internal DAC is such a good one already, please provide the I2S Input on the hardware going forward, this would add to this amazing unit. 👌

Hi, Can this Fezz Titania Integrated use KT 150 tubes? Can I pair this Integrated with my Revival Audio Atalante 5 speakers?

Does Vandersteen pair well with Luxman?

I still have my Magnepan MG-1.5/QR speakers and Adcom GFA-555 II amp from over 30 years ago and they still work fine, although not being presently used. At the time it was a pretty great setup for me, and it's hard to beat those speakers for detail and sound staging when properly set up.

Sanders Magtech. 900 watts per channel into 4 ohms with the stereo amp. A monoblock is also available.
