Thank you. I typically leave my system on 24/7 and only shut everything down if I am going to travel for more than a few days. I agree warm up on DACS can take awhile depending on what you have.
Keith thanks for the reply. I had fun listening to it from out of the box to a few hours of playing yesterday. This morning after leaving it on I was surprised how the soundstage really opened up. I can only compare it to several times hearing a very great system with R2R tape as the source...
Good grief we have the moral police on this forum. Tango do you know me? Do you know my ex wife? How can you comment on my situation without knowing anything about me? I live with my comments about my ex wife and did not make any demeaning comment about women in general. Really?
Timy I don’t know how you know so much about me and what I was feeling and meant by all my posts. I feel like I am under psychoanalysis. Are you a therapist or social worker by trade? You seem like a schoolyard bully that attacks everyone who doesn’t conform. You want me to leave WBF and not...
David thank you for clarification and I absolutely agree that WBF is not for entry level audiophiles BUT we all started somewhere and IF one were to post asking about lower tier equipment we as veterans to this hobby can politely nudge them in a good direction. You also made note of this process...

DDK I wasn’t aware that WBF was only for audiophiles of a certain level? I guess the name eludes to that, how stupid of me. So where does this level start at WBF? Is it the brands of equipment you own or the overall cost of your system? I am perfectly fine with this distinction as many...
Peter again words of wisdom, thank you. I can somewhat relate to EBITDAC with a recent search for new speakers. I understand the frustrations with less than helpful dealers. I hope he returns to answer the questions he has been asked. Thank you.
Peter excellent points, thank you. What resources are available for new audiophiles to go and evaluate budget equipment? My first thought is try and find a local audiophile group that meets and can share and let borrow equipment?
I think EBITDAC meant more audio dealers have a wider range of budget options to hear and choose from? Maybe I was wrong in that assumption.I hope he comes back and will elaborate his point.
Yes I was embellishing the the point with the entitled millennial comment. As a boomer they frustrate me...
DDK and Peter I reread what EBITDAC wrote and did not get the impression he was an entitled millennial. I understand both of your frustrations of how the younger generation have such a feeling they are entitled to everything. Lets hopefully let EBITDAC come back with a response.
I am intrigued by this Benchmark amplifier. If I may oversimplify it’s design it appears to be a traditional Class AB amp using a SMPS and a unique feedback circuit Benchmark calls Feed Forward Error Correction? The members who have this amp or have used it in their systems how does it compare...
Tima I can only reflect on how I fit into the audiophile community and how I should conduct my own actions. I have no control of any of the rest of the members. It was a suggestion not a mandate.
I posted the article to bring light to our community especially the online forums and basic...
Sorry you came to this conclusion about my request to close the thread. Is it typical for all threads to require as much moderator warnings and interaction? My intention was why beat a dead horse and continue escalating more vitriol, that’s all. I have been away from WBF for several years.
