    Does anyone have experience with the Kef LS50?

    I have had the Kef LS50's for a couple of months now. I had intended to up-grade my main speaker system from the NHT Classic Three and NHT B-12d subwoofer combination I had been running for a couple of years. I had previously added a Bryston B135 SST² and Cambridge Audio Azur 851C, and though...

    Schiit Mjolnir vs Bryston BHA-1 (and Schiit Gungnir vs Bifrost)

    I agree, I am really enjoying my BHA-1 / HE-500's.  I must say, the discussion regarding balanced and unbalanced listening and the "vast" improvement in the balanced mode largely escapes me. I really find the differences to be very little. It is there, but not to any degree that some have...

    REVIEW - HiFiMan HE-560 Planar Magnetic Headphones - Stock Headphone Impressions here, No Mods other than cables (Review in Progress)

    HeadphoneAddict;   First let me say how appreciative I am to you for your hard work on this thread. I have the HE-500's and the Bryston BHA-1. Have you any comments on this combination ?  The BHA-1 in general;  and what you may consider to be the synergy of the two.   Thanks so much,   Doug

    Cambridge 851C CD/DAC/Pre - Anyone else getting one? (Impressions to follow)

    Thanks to all for contributing. Very interesting observations all.  I have had the 851C in my main system for a few months now. I am a 57 year old luddite so I have not used it to its potential as I only play cd's having given up on my LP-12 (modded) Ittok / Koetsu rig a few years back when I...

    Amp and DAC for HE-400s

    Amp and DAC for HE-400s

    I have the HE-400's, and Grado PS-500's.  I use the Schiit Valhalla with the Grado's (usually) and the Schiit Asgard with the HE-400's (again, usually). It realy depends on what I am listening to and how loud I want to listen. The Bifrost is an excellent DAC, I , however have little experience...
