    A cool drink of Aqua Formula

    Under the cover, you mean if we turn the dac upside down it's there or we have to unscrew the bolts and it's "inside" the dac? (I'm at the office now and can't confirm in loco) Thanks.

    A cool drink of Aqua Formula

    Do any of Aqua Formula owners had replaced the fuse on it? It's not in the usual place near the power plug, so i think that we have to open the lid. It's an easy job? Anyone can do it or it's better to take it to the dealer? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Nordost or Transparent?

    WE don't tolerate language of this nature here at WBF. It has been deleted and you have been warned. Hopefully you see the light as the next time it'll be a small vacation from WBF

    Hello from the Northwest of Spain

    Hi Rocoa, Welcome aboard! I've been a member here for quite sometime and haven't properly introduce myself. My bad. Will do that shortly :) This is a very good place to exchange ideas; tweaks and to learn, and most important to make friends, at least I've made some good friends who shares this...

    How to contact Avalon Acoustics for support?

    It's wonderful this mixed ideas about the "house sound" of speakers and how our perception of what we hear is so different. I've had in the last 6/7 years maybe 5 or 6 speakers models, ie Monitor Audio; Xavian, Vivid, Evolution Acoustics, Gryphon (monitors and floorstanders) and then I stopped...

    The Colibri “Master Signature”

    Don't know for memory, have to check. But I can say without a doubt that the marriage is perfect with the Kuzma 4P 9" in sound presentation. Also aesthetically the African Black Wood seems to be made for the 4P. I'm a guy with only one turntable that can only accommodate one tonearm, so I made...

    The Colibri “Master Signature”

    Some pics of the Colibri MS Stradivarius in African Black Wood Grenadille - 1,1 mV. Still many hours to break in point, but I do feel that each day it’s getting better. The soundstage is amazing, sometimes even freaky because I hear sounds in every corner of the room, completely unboxed, the...

    I think I have 300 ohm and the high setting, who adds some more dbs on the Nagra VPS.

    The Colibri “Master Signature”

    I have the Colibri XGW Master Signature Stradivarius (1,1 mV) in African Black Wood Grennadille (yes, the nomenclature of the names should be more easy), it should be around 80/100 hours and I haven't heard any sibilance at all. With the "regular" Colibri in my setup yes I've heard some...

    Hear It Yourself.

    Indeed The Colibri MSS (1,1 mV) keeps surprising me each day (it has roughly 50 hours or so - I'm not maniac to the point of counting playing time ). Just finished a three hour session and realized that some albums are in fact very good, because with the prior cartridges I couldn't hear their...

    Hear It Yourself.

    I was gonna say that the Atlas was my favorite and then you embed the Colibri MSS... Thats the one I like the most. Probably because I own one myself. :) Unfortunately (or is it fortunately?) ;) my TT can only support one tonearm.
