Introducing Olympus & Olympus I/O - A new perspective on modern music playback
If using aftermarket footers, would you recommend removing the installed footers to rest against that bare aluminum, or would you recommend placing the new footer beneath the existing (already installed) Olympus footer?- gds7368

Vinyl storage area construction needed!
Here’s what my builder came up with for a preliminary design. He divided the albums into groups of 20, and says this will hold 640 total albums. Is it wasteful to spend to do groups of 20 LPs (too much space for dividers, each of which could be a few more LPs)? He created drawers in the...- gds7368

Vinyl storage area construction needed!
I’m doing a major home renovation, and I want to build out a dedicated area to store vinyl. This future storage area is right around the corner from the audio system’s location. I currently have about 300 albums, but could see that number *seriously* increasing as it’s virtually all I’m...- gds7368

Magico M7 2023
Thinking about it …. sure looks like an amazing design. Would be nice to hear them though I can’t imagine they would disappoint. I suppose it begs the question of what one or two subwoofers plus M6 would sound like in my room vs M7 without subs. I don’t really have a great place to put any subs...- gds7368

Magico M7 2023
Can anyone speak to real-world sensitivity of M7 vs M6? In terms of listed specifications, sensitivity is 91 for M6 and 92 for M7 (with listed impedance of 4 ohms for both speakers). My amplifiers have 3 gain settings, and I only prefer it in the lowest gain setting which (despite their 500...- gds7368

Magico M7 2023
I've followed this website for years and couldn't disagree with any one sentence more than this one. I'm virtually 100% vinyl through my Magicos at this point, and enjoying every minute of it. It's not that digital can't sound good through them, it's just that analog sounds like the band is in...- gds7368

DS Audio Grand Master Extreme
I respect your time and experience, and I would really enjoy hearing your system! My personal reference is live unamplified music, not anything coming from a stereo system. But as far as stereos go, my reference is 1/2 inch 30 IPS R2R - well mastered and as close to the source material as...- gds7368

The Digital Director - A new MSB product improving everything from the source to the output
My business partner has the Select DD in house for a demo (owns MSB Select DAC and Reference transport). I've heard his reference CDs and SACDs many times, though our current sessions over there are R2R. Last week I went over for an evening to listen and the same reference CDs/SACDs were...- gds7368

New Magico Speaker ??? 12-12-22
IMHO you have to be choose your source carefully when auditioning Magico speakers. If digital is your only source, particularly if using both solid state preamplifier and solid state amplifier, listen to the difference between a transport and a music streamer. Put your ears on an analog source...- gds7368

Metaxas Tape Machines Secure U.S. + Canada Distribution
I have known Jeff Garshon personally and professionally (I purchased 3 Berkeley DACs) for about 15 years. He is passionate and extremely ethical. Very excited to see him bring Metaxas to the US! (ask Jeff about his charting on Canadian radio)- gds7368
