Your Best Audio Purchase of the Year!

[Hiten]

Wow! Really gone for the kill!

Would be nice to listen to well made products. Am equally happy for others of the well setup quality systems.
Regards.

How is the tweeter less setup? Do you have any posting on your ICE buildup? Hard to see a car audio fan these days.

Setup not yet done, mostly by this month. Lot of good reviews for nz3, hope this should be good.

Seems recession has not affected our audiophile community at all

2019 was for music. Managed to buy 30 odd fabulous pressings of various rock and jazz-blues artists; from Discogs, Rhino, Mo-fi, etc. Middle of 2020 is probably when I'll go for speaker upgrade.

I got a pair of svs pb2000 and fyne audio F501 FS and 500c centre.
I wish i could wait a little longer and have gone for pb2000 pro series.

2019 was a major system overhaul for me where I upgraded most of the components. More importantly I am very happy with the outcome and discovering more music than anytime before.

Components added : ATC SCM 40 V2 speakers, Gryphon Callisto amp , Schiit Gungnir multibit dac and some XLR , speaker cables and basic room treatment.

Your Music room looks excellent..

Hi all...wishing you all a great year ahead. This thread has been one awesome read so far. Please keep it going

As for me..I think Iam finally out of the upgrade bug after 6 years of mayhem. I probably need a tube preamp.....but even that is wishful thinking

Bought lots of music and a quad of iso acoustics orea bronze to use under my Philips CD960 CDP

Oh how could i miss out on a gem of a toy I picked up late last year, a minidsp 2x4hd. It's got a steep learning curve.

The image above is from the web, but I finally managed to get hold of a swapped HDV820 to compliment my ever so faithful HD800S recently.
Hesitated to post this as it probably wouldn't qualify as a purchase per se. It's a lucky find, while trying to get rid of RME ADI-2 & COS H1 DAC.

Hi Abawa,
I was looking up people using naim amplifiers and came across your post.

Was wondering if you Could shed some light on how it's performing.

Since I was considering buying the nait 5si.


Thanks in advance

Naim 5si had good enough power to deliver in a decent sized room. Gud tonal clarity at low and high volumes. Very musical for jazz, instrumentals type. With my setup i miss having tonal controls - bass and treble, as i like my music on warmer side and my setup delivers on slightly brighter side. It may also sound harsh at higher volumes and cause fatigue. Looking to experiment in future with tubes and room correction.
I m no audiophile, so not sure if my observations are for Amp + Speaker combo or due to Amp only.
Hope this helps
