    Who is using the hifi in the house?

    My main hifi is in my workshop/office. Wife never really got to the serious side of music. She would select a song on youtube music, and let the algorithm do the rest while she works. Kids listen on the computers and phones. I have a small nad avr system in the living room, but no one ever used...

    What comes first - the source or the speaker?

    Some of the responses reminds me of a facebook group aimed making fun and laughing at audiophoolery. But most have been so blinded, and everyone tries to be heard by posting the next obscure craziness that they miss the point and would joke at actual high end gear. refusing to admit that his...

    Opamp alternatives

    I'm in the very early stages of a new headphone amp design. I'm done with the input, and summing stages. Left is the buffer, and power circuits. For the buffer I've planned on using the NJR4556. It is perfect for supplying current. Allas, it seems it is no longer available. I'm kindly looking...

    4ch power amp build

    Where do you print your pc boards? I often see you designing your own. PCBway has moq of 10. So I always print 10 boards, then usually end up with a bunch of spares for future use which might end up just fueling hoarding. This looks fantastic by the way.

    What comes first - the source or the speaker?

    In my post above I was referring to the Gryphon series. the 333 is 33k in dollars, and the vanguard was 37k in Rands. (Bought a demo unit) That Axxess Forte looks great for an all in one package.

    What comes first - the source or the speaker?

    Not sure I agree with this. Maybe there is is truth. This was just my experience. I have to admit, I have never spent more than 5K on an integrated, so my comparison might be skewed. When I was 18, I had a Linn LK1 & LK2 combo, but could not afford the right speakers for it, then let it go. I...

    Any good soul here willing to rent or lend me a calibrated omni mic usb?

    About a decade ago there was a floating mic used by all the speaker builders in the forum. I recall involvement from @NoSnipeLimit @Timber_MG etc... Maybe they might know where that mic is? Not sure if they are still active here. We had a very good theory workshop at that time.

    Luxman PD272 vs Pro-ject Debut Carbon Acrylic: which would you keep, and why?

    You could always keep both and play each to it's strength. Maybe consider doing the same test again, but with the carts swopped.

    President Lincoln.

    I put more faith in what Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, Matt Walsh and even Pierce Morgan has to say than lets say Whoopi Goldberg, Joy and Sara from the View Both sides you have to take what they say with a grain of salt, but one of them holds more weight. A lot more.
