    Grounding Rod TLC

    My understanding is that grounding rods like moisture. To that end would it be wise to water the ground the rods are in regularly? If so, how often?

    300B’s for Lampi Pacific…

    I have been enjoying Takatsuki 300B’s in my SE Pacific DAC for well over a year and am curious to hear from others who use 300B’s in their Pacific. What are you using and why? These are the only 300B’s I have tried and they deliver a nice combination of lovely tone, body, transparency, dynamics...

    Cool Visit…

    I had a wonderful afternoon today! @Mike Lavigne was in my neck of the planet and was able to come by for a brief but thoroughly enjoyable hang. A warm, engaging, and enthusiastic lover of music and the gear that delivers it is he! @J.R. Boisclair, a friend from the neighborhood who has been...

    Spectral SDR3000 Transport

    My understanding is that this transport was made to be used in conjunction with the SDR2000 DAC only. Has any one tried using it with any non-Spectral DAC's? If so, which one's and what were the sonic results? Thanks!

    Fibre Optic Modems

    We just had ATT install fibre optic internet in our home. They provided the all-in-one ARRIS BGW 210-700 that utilizes the Broadcom BMC63148 chipset.

    M12 Gold Switch

    I received the M12 for an audition and, per Marcin of JCat, gave it 100 hours of run time before doing any serious listening. As I was using a very pedestrian setup for this it was easy to avoid the temptation to listen prematurely. After 130+ hours I can say unequivocally this device has given...

    Lamm and Raidho

    I currently have a pair of Raidho D2.1's and am considering an amp upgrade. They are being driven by a Viola Labs Symphony stereo amp (200wpc) and a Shindo Vosne-Romanee pre. I was using the Viola Crescendo pre but find that the Shindo V-R delivers a bit more emotion. Does anyone have...
