    Review by 'bobfa' on item 'Questyle CMA Fifteen DAC/Amp'

    I have been doing too much work lately, and this review got caught in the middle. My notes and processes fell a bit. Also, I have been putting off writing this review because I was not sure where to go with it. I might be getting jaded, or something else is causing my brain block. With...

    Watts Up...?

    I had a Hugo 2 and found it very nice, but I sold it because it is not a portable DAC, nor is it a Desktop DAC. I still have my Mojo and use it "some", and more lately, I am working with the way. The Mojo 2 is of great interest using my iPhone as the computer. Yet I am tempted by the new...

    Comment by 'bobfa' on listing 'Soekris 2541'

    The Dave was a loaner. The personalities are amazingly different. The Soekris is sort of smooth and sweet??? The Dave is uptight??? The TT2 with a Farad 3 sits further in the sweet spot. I spent a lot of time not finding the right XLR cables! I no longer use DACs in my main system the...

    New Loaner Program - Chord Hugo TT2

    The TT2 is a pretty big step up. It can fill multiple needs better. I was pleasantly surprised by how much better it sounded. What this actually leads me to is to look at the Dave and the M-Scaler. I do not spend a lot of time with my headphone system. For my current needs, the Hugo 2 is...

    New Loaner Program - Chord Hugo TT2

    Many thanks to Todd from TTVJ Audio for setting up his loaner program. Just a little background to start. I have two Chord DACs, the Mojo and the Hugo 2. They both perform very well, and while they target the same use case, I use them differently. I use the Mojo for portable situations...

    Epic Headphone Event! Chicago - October 27th

    Audio Consultants hosted a headphone event in the Evanston store on October 27, 2018. I was able to attend and thought I would share my experience. I have only been to a few headphone events, and this experience was different. The in-store event was more personal and a lot quieter. It was...

    Epic Headphone Event! Chicago - October 27th 10-6PM

    Nice event. Thanks to Evan for his expertise. I was able to listen to the LCDi4 for the first time. I was very impressed. I did a little "show report." https://www.head-fi.org/threads/epic-headphone-event-chicago-october-27th.892087/

    Lyr 3 - The new Coherence™ and Continuity™ hybrid amplifier from Schiit - Impression & discussion thread

    WOW, what a thread! I finally decided to order a Lyr 3. Schiit has just shipped my Lyr 3 with the MB DAC and both of their tubes. I also have a WYRD in the order. My primary use case is desktop operation connected to my 27in iMac. I also plan to use it as a headphone amp in my "big"...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Jason, I am sure it has been said before; but we really appreciate the work you do. I mean that not only from a customer standpoint but for the industry. It is hard these days to avoid the always on world! You can almost never get away from that stimulation. I received my first Schiit...

    What a long, strange trip it's been -- (Robert Hunter)

    I am very interested in what you might do with a transport. I am waiting on my first product from Schiit a Yggdrasil and I would love a "matching" transport. I think that the CD market is in a pretty great place to buy used right now. But as I have been purchasing used CD's and I am starting...

    Mytek Brooklyn Thread

    I have not heard the booster but I have the JS-2 that the second rail is running my MacMini and the combo is darn impressive. I would not go back. The improvement on the DAC+ was welcome but the improvement to the system cleaning up the power to the Mac mini is nothing short of a miracle! I...
