Massive price drop, the amp is sitting in its box waiting to be shipped and gets no use!

A couple of new recordings Not sure how to describe the music…the quartet reminds me of Bartok 4th or Shostakovich 8th. And this one showed up in my Roon recommendations, didn’t expect much but it’s actually quite brilliant. The Pastorale arranged for piano trio is some kind of revelation

Now sold

The interview was quite interesting...lovely analogies with food, you can definitely link them with his Italian heritage :)

Sold

I didn’t even know they existed!

I’m wondering what they’ll have for sale…I honestly don’t expect the Elite being discounted, maybe pads and cables?

Thanks for the replies! I will try them again before putting them for sale, with various filters too. They are so comfy!

Is anyone using the TT2 with the HD800s? I tried it briefly a couple of days ago and didn't like the pair, everything sounds a bit sterile. I'm not concerned as I the ZMF Atrium has taken in its place in my rotation, but the same Atrium (dynamic with similar impedance) works great with it. I...

^ Beautiful! These days I hardly listen anything pre Beethoven era, my ears just don't get along well with Baroque or music from the Classical era (maybe because for so many years that's what I listened to exclusively), but the exception is Bach, and in particular his vocal music That's what...

I haven't used my Mojo 2 for months, it was sitting in my drawer unused as my Burson 3XP was my daily driver. I've added some powered speakers which means I'm not using headphones as much and therefore I am downsizing my system. The 3XP is for sale and the Mojo 2 on my desk again, driving the...

One of the 'less Russian' Russian composers, master of counterpoint or Russian Bach. I love his String Trio, and if you love fugues you should give it a try

A nice, delicate interpretation of the Ravel violin sonata

I have the Meze Empyrean and have no ground issue. Strange it happens only on those headphones. As for me, I finally spent some time with the SRC DX converter, connected to Raspberry PI running as NAA. It definitely sounds different than my other streamer (another PI with the PI2AES hat, using...

Brilliant, thanks, I should have looked ‘harder’! so, it’s degenerate from the Nazis point of view, got it I will, thanks for the suggestion!

More from Praga Digitals label Not sure about the ‘Degenerate Music’ title…English is not my first language 😂 As for the music, I can hear some Bartok influences (mainly for the folk roots) and even Jazz, but it’s quite a personal style. More info on the composer and his music here...

I'm simplifying my system and this great DAC, sadly, has to go. I've purchased it on September 2021, directly from Vinshine Audio and has been working without any issue since. I've used it in a pet and smoke free environment, always seated on my rack. It's in fantastic conditions, no scratches...

Same here! There is a lot of interesting music from that label, mostly Czech composers, but not only. I never heard that quintet before (in fact no chamber at all from Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov) and is quite nice! I also recommend the Borodin quartets by the same ensemble

I wish they were more comfortable, I can’t really keep them in my ears for more than 20 minutes unfortunately. But I agree, as far as sound is concerned they are not behind my other headphones…can only imagine how good the Forte are!

I haven’t updated my impressions on the TT2, I’m lazy sorry! Lots of things to try, the SRC DX converter + HQPlayer vs PI2AES optical, various filters, crossfeed…but I wanted to write something about the pairing with the 64 Audio U6T IEMs. They sound absolutely incredible: very realistic timbre...

Also interested in trades…if someone has a Verite Closed, that would be ideal, I would happily add cash

Something more traditional. Listening to the horn trio…oh this interpretation (even for a non classical trained person like me) is so different. The horn playing is subtle and delicate, but sometimes I miss the vigour and the tension that makes Brahms so special. Nonetheless, wonderful music

And speaking of peculiar scores, string quartet and alto saxophone! Give it a try, it's not as bad as it may sound LOL It's quite catchy in fact

Yep, it's not your case :)
