    Schiit Lyr+ : Impressions Thread

    I listen between 11 - 1 o'clock with my GS3000x @ 32 ohms and between 1 - 3 o'clock with my HD 800 S @ 300 ohms on high gain with the Lyr +. Noise floor is raised slightly with the Grado, but otherwise no issues. IMO, the Grado sounds more energetic on high gain. Have you had a different...

    Grado Fan Club!

    I only listened casually for a couple of hours this evening. One of the first things that struck me was the articulation in bass. More Tony Levin than NIN for context. I was listening to Sonia Dada's "A Day at the Beach" (one of the discs I wore out in the mid to late 90s demoing equipment)...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Personal Grail. I was seriously concerned after purchasing these that it would be an incremental/slight improvement over my RS1x. Happy to say that they are noticeable better for my taste (Classic Rock, Alternative, Hard Rock, Americana, Singer/Song Writer, 80's Hair Metal, Jam Band, and...

    Just ordered a GS3000x with XLR termination from Grado. Super strange as I was not allowed any expedited shipping options. Stay tuned,

    Eversolo DMP-A6 Network Streamer/DAC

    Some Blu-ray players have 2 HDMI outputs. One to send the Audio/Video signal (perhaps ARC or eARC) and one to send an Audio only signal. I believe the DMP-A6 is intended to receive the Audio only output of a Blu-ray player. It would work just like a coaxial or optical digital out (no...

    Do the Auteur LTD 2024s include the clam shell case? If not, what packaging is used? Thanks in advance.

    Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread

    Really enjoying SACDs converted to PCM 88.2kHz from the Arcam through the GS2. Have gone back and forth between the internal DAC and the GS2. I keep returning to the GS2. The Analog Productions Pink Floyd discs are very special (although I don't think it will ever make me enjoy Animals). I'm...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Agree with the RS1x > GH2. Have not heard the Hemp. I regretted selling my GH2 for the HF-3 a few years back. I was excited for the new cable. I can't tell you how many hours I spent with a heat gun trying to remove kinks in the old cable on various models. The wood was a downgrade from the...

    Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread

    I find them to be very special. Owned Martin Logan ESLs previously (as well as various other speakers). They were less than $2,000 with the clarity cap upgrade. Aside from being absolutely beautiful, I think they sound amazing and are one of the best values in Hi Fi. Highly recommended.
