Wilson Audio / Tekton / Alta
Yes, I can get Sasha 2 for about 10k, but second hand. I just want to make sure it is indeed better than, in particular, Alta Alec. -
Wilson Audio / Tekton / Alta
Hello, I can get the follow speakers all at a similar price point - difference is negligible (circa $10,000). Does anyone have any advice as to how you would select a pair between them?

~$25K Home Audio Setup
Yes, this is something I had been trying to evaluate myself. I think it would be nicest to have best of both worlds - a powerful 2.0 or 2.1 setup to flank the screen (either an 8K Samsung or 8K projector if there exists any). This would be used daily; the surround system, not as often - at... -

~$25K Home Audio Setup
Thank you very much for the link. I will go through (with a lot of time). What further info can I provide to help? At the moment, I've been looking at the BeoLab 50's/90's or Wilson Audio Sabrina. Unfortunately, I don't have many opportunities to listen and compare though. I guess... -
~$25K Home Audio Setup
Hello everyone. I've recently relocated for work (thanks to COVID) and have a new home to furnish. I wanted to ask if people could share some of their audio setups for home cinema or living rooms to the value of approx. $25k. (This is about my limit right now, if it comes in lower - great...- Blaze182

Campfire - Solaris
One of the reasons I really love Campfire. I had a MMCX connector break over 12 months ago on my Jupiter, at the time it was 12 months out of warranty. Campfire said a driver was apparently not in good shape either, so they gave me a new pair - freely. Brilliant company.- Blaze182

Yes, strongly highlighted perhaps is more apt, as it is not present with all tracks. I haven't experimented with tips outside of looking for a good fit and seal, which I struggled with for a while.- Blaze182

EE Legend X, Nemesis | CA Solaris | Recommendation/Comparison?
Hello, I would like to buy a new IEM. Looking for more bass and a mildly richer tone than my existing gear. Current lineup is CA Andromeda and Jupiter. Full size is K701 and HD800. Source is SP1000. I've been told that the Legend X would be too much for me, and that the Nemesis might be the...- Blaze182

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
Any further info on this? Tried it, and its pretty good, but MQA is a lossy format, so it feels a little silly if the purpose of the player is to dedicate it to Tidal. I fly pretty much 24-7: Europe, America, Asia. Not many people would honestly match my schedule of travel, and for me its...- Blaze182

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
Well, to be fair, the SP1000m I only listened to for about 45 minutes, and it was brand new, only a few dozen hours on it, so perhaps my experience isn't reflective of it in its prime. I like the look, UI and build, although it doesn't feel as premium as the SP1000, and for that reason alone I...- Blaze182

New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000
Great video. I really feel a difference between the SP1000 and SP1000m. There was a video floating around about the SP1000m that the SP1000 was receiving an update next year - anyone have further information on this?- Blaze182

Chord Mojo vs ipad/iphone
FWIW I believe the Mojojojo is better than the iPhone 7. I've used Apple iPhones since the original, so I am well familiarised with the sound quality. I use Hibiki 3.9 to play ALAC - its cool, cause it tells you what its outputting. When I use iPhone 7s as source, I can't get it to output above...- Blaze182
