One option is to get a XLR to 1/4" adapter; Moon Audio is one source, but there are several quality options. For something good, $100 to $200 should easily get the job done. Not the $9.95 version from Amazon; I did that in a pinch and it worked (sound came out). However, a couple of weeks...

What an excellent article by sonusapparatus. One thing I don't have time to research, but am curious about. The reviewer tried the 3.1 version and 3.2 version with several amplifiers, and gave his opinion as to which version of the MySphere sounded best with each amp. A few years ago (before...

Below are the only two photos I took, one of the view (and a head-fi-er listening to some equipment) and the other of dinner. Thom, thanks as always for hosting, the company and the food are always first-rate! No photo of lunch, but pork and home-made bread and sausage (or brat, I forget) was...

Hi Thom, sounds like a pretty good group coming this time; maybe you could also post a list of confirmed attendees? I plan on bringing my LTA z10e with the Meze Empyreans. Don't really want to lug along my Cary streamer/DAC, but it might be easier to do that than try and work out some other...

Before Covid, the Atlanta Audio Club (Society?) hosted a really nice headphone meet the first weekend (approx.) of May, if I remember correctly. The year I went it was held just northeast of I-285, in a pretty large (apartment's) clubhouse, and it was completely full. Maybe @purk can fill us...

There is nothing like hearing music reproduced in space. (As opposed to what I hear from my really good, but over-the-ear, Meze Empyreans.) Sadly(?), I was reminded of this last week, when I decided to try out Naim's little all-in-one streaming speaker system, the Mu-So qb. After I finish...

You kindly offered to come over sometime and educate me on Roon, and I need to make myself available next time you are in town and have some time. I will say, my headphone system has improved a lot since the last time you were here (most recently, inexplicably to me, although there is probably...

My recollection of first hearing the Myspheres (demo at home) was similar to the first time I heard Magnapan loudspeakers. The Magnapans simply disappeared, and the instruments and vocals just floated in space. I immediately promised myself that the next pair of speakers would be Magnapans...

Sounds like a great lineup; I haven't heard the Susvara or the HE-1000; sorry I had to miss out! Thankfully @Makahl brought the Utopias last time and I was able to compare them to my Empyreans. The Utopias are great, but listening to them just confirmed I like the extra spaciousness provided...

Thanks very much; I'll look forward to trying it out. My thought was (is), the music steam would come from my Switch, go via Ethernet cable to the Core, and then on to my Streamer (which I am unwilling to do, insert another device between my switch and streamer/DAC). Are you saying I would...

Thom was telling me I need to come and experience Roon, since he has started using it now. I would like Roon (and happily just buy it) for information feature alone. This because, the app which Cary audio provides to control my streamer, utilizing my iPad, doesn't offer any information about...

I take that back, I have made one significant upgrade to my system (for less than $200). Two or three months ago I tried out (and purchased) a new, cryo-ed, "Ebony Cat8 Ethernet cable" from InSound Audio (the same guy who makes the copper ribbon interconnects). It is spectacular. I also...

I had a renter move out (in North Alabama) and also my mom is limited in driving - so it is likely I'll be out of town Thursday or Friday, through Sunday. Too bad. Although I don't have a lot of new equipment, it would be great to meet some of the new people. Let me say, whether you bring...

Thom, thanks for great hospitality and even greater food (by definition, since the food is a subset, perhaps food cannot be greater than hospitality; I'll have to think about that). Barbeque and home-made bread never disappoints. Tons of great stuff to listen to and people with whom to visit...

YEAAAA: Headphones: Audeze CRBN Electrostatic Looking forward to hearing the CRBN headphones; have been wondering about them for many months now!
