and an Emotiva subwoofer. Preamp is Valit 2 +, with Loki Mini + . DAC is a Modi Multibit, preceded by a a Schiit Wyrd. Power is by Chutulla.
This is my office system.
My desktop signal path is: PC -> BF2 -> Lyr 3 or Piety -> Rekkr -> Acoustic Audio Subwoofer / TS Radial mini speakers. It's amazing how 2w of quality power can provide high quality and more than enough volume. Rekkr replaced a 60w x 2 Class D amp and sounds even better with more than enough volume.
The radials are AWESOME! Incredible soundstage and mids are absolutely sublime.
A shout out in appreciation for the Transporter!
I ordered it when it was first announced and it has remained one of my favorite pieces of audio equipment of all time. It completely changed the way I listened to music, and was the first stand alone appliance I knew of (as opposed to general purpose computer) for lossless digital playout. Slim Devices were ahead of their time, but it was not the right product for mass market sales and Logitech.
Enjoy it while you can!
Unrelated post to anything, I’ve left my Mjolnir 3 on during the past weeks of chill because why the hell not and damned if I don’t think it sounds even better. Very noticeably better. Is cabin fever a thing? No Johnny, you’re fine.
Jason and Mike should figger out a way to work that into Ad not fAd Copy. Well done!
And no, I do not expect them to do that (but it would be funny!). I am just trying my best to stir the waters of Lake Flaccid here...
VU Meters...Twiin VU Meters will do that to a Man of not so mean Means. They do not impart "class" but rather affirm it as the Thunder affirms the arrival of the storm.
Mjolnir, the Hammer of Thor was originally called MjölVUr. Yup.
I've been unsuccessful in my attempts to find a compatible speaker for desk/ tabletop placement. Everyone suggests the Klipsch but they're placement suggestions clearly indicate they aren't designed as bookshelf or desktop speakers. I'm extremely picky about my music, speaker placement is often more important than just about anything else. A great set of speakers improperly placed can be smoked by a mediocre pair with proper placement. Proper 2 channel beats the pants off of surround sound for music with proper speaker placement. Eventually I intend to purchase some Polk bookshelf speakers to pair with a Rekkr because I think they'll probably be fine for near field listening at the desk. If you find something small enough to fit on desk that aren't crazy expensive with unrealistic placement recommendations I am extremely interested.
