    Ascend Sierra-1 V2 Speaker Review

    Visited the company Website and was impressed. They are really taking advantage of the Kippel Scanner which gives the consumer a higher level of confidence. There is their signature series LRC MTM style that if they sound as good as the measurements show, would be a great value.

    Yamaha R-S202 Receiver Review

The rest really, with all due respect you can save it. For more or $350 you can go used, HTR, to a Wiim or...

    AES Paper Presentation on DAC Measurements (Video)

    Agree totally, why would it seem that society, now questions facts more than ever. Maybe bc anyone with a smartphone and $100 to by a piece of gear can now create a whole opinion and sound factual. In any case (maybe everyone in this forum to some extent) I will continue to be an advocate sor...

    Thanks, we are in reality a property of the US House of Representatives. As they are the ones that have jurisdiction on the territories. No disfunction there. We have a thriving community of Audio enthusiasts. There are vintage collectors and many others that enjoy their Kef and Dyna Audio...

    Poll: Where are you guys from?
