As I stated above I bought the NAD M10V2 to provide me a all-in-one solution. Now, I wished I bought the Naim. They are often compared to each other. The HP option would have been nice. I really wanted to like it, but got bored. I still own it, and will use it with the Dali Epicons in whole...

I prefer suede myself. They just work better with my chain of electronics and cables. Since switching from the Verite Silver cable to the Forza Noir Hybrid it allows me to return to the stock lambskin if in the mood, but still prefer the suede.

I hear you loud and clear. The "Rabbit Hole" that many of us term the "process" or the "hobby" can truly bring frustration. I purchased the NAD M10V2 to replace a robust chain of electronics to drive my Dali Epicons because I was simply unsatisfied and frustrated with spending huge amounts of...

i know I am on a "pink cloud" with the Caldera being driven from my Accuphase A-70, but I sit hear pondering why I spent so much money and time on e-stat gear, Chord gear and accessories when I could have tapped my oldest and current accuphase system to get pure listening bliss. Could have saved...

I am looking forward to perusing the thread, but before I do I will say using a speaker amp to power my ZMF Caldera is a listening gem. I have used two amps. Both are Class A high quality amps. You can see them in my signature, but to save you from squinting, they are the Acuphase A-70 SS and...

I am an owner of the Chord MDave. I need to go suede when I listen directly from the Dave. Although, when I use the Dave primarily as a DAC to my tube amp than I can go either suede or stock. The true blessing of the Caldera is its versatility with pad swapping to cater to the equipment being used.

Nice, will need to listen Right now enjoying Judas Priest Invincible Shield

@Matez Received the Noir Hybrid HPC - Cable today via DHL without issues. The packaging, speed of shipment and of course the cables are excellent. They are working above expectations. Thank you for your patience with the order. Will definitely do business again.

Holly Cow!!! If I knew using my Synthesis A40 speaker amp was going to sound this good with the Calderas, I would have done this a long time ago. This is truly a gift of listening pleasure. Thank you to those who guided me with finding the speaker adapter and Forza cables. Will note, I needed...

A bit dated reply, but I wanted to add the CRBN IMHO is an e-stat LCD-5. They are tuned very similar. Many of the reviewers state they would select the CRBN over the LCD-5 if cost was not an option. Disclaimer, I have spent 2 years with the CRBN and very little time with the LCD-5, so take my...

R2R on front, and nothing on back. Came with the R10D. You can see the pic of mine in the photo above with the desire to sell the unit.

No, my BM does not reflect this. It is a R2R. I purchased wire open box as well. Although, it does drop and battery is minimal.

Received tracking info from Forza. Takes 3 days to ship from Warsaw Poland to Washington DC, crazy.

Hifam R10D, R2R BM & 1 cable in original box. For sale. $250 to include S&H. Message if interested.

Like to hear your thoughts how the CRBN complements the Stax x9k.

Well packaged and prompt shipment. Class A+++ seller

I returned my DEC/21 CRBN for a replacement I received May/2023. Despite requesting documentation or a new card with new date, Audeze never provided. Matter of fact, they never answered any of my emails. Question, for those who returned an old CRBN for a repair or new one, did you receive any...

Added a friend to accompany my HD 700 OG today. I had to switch out the stock pads to a pair of Dekoni/s for Bluie. The stock pads are way to bright.

Added another HD700 today.....See below.

Qutest and Dave have a different sound signature. I am not saying one is better than the other, just different. The Mojo/Hugo/Qutest/TT2 are one family and the Dave is a distant cousin. i have owned most.

Truly a great seller. Will buy again without hesitation. The HD700 shipped and packed better than expected.

Yeah, I really screwed up the order, oops. Matt reached out and now it's fine. I look forward to the cable. Hope the hybrid is good with the Calderas as well.

Yeah, made a mistake an ordered the HPC versus the hybrid. As soon as I discovered this I ordered the other and requested a cancellation. Worst case scenario i have both at the price of one Verite Silver. I do hope it arrives in a couple weeks since I will be moving early June.
