And this is the 'extreme' version. Surely they must also have a 'lite' version for those who only want half of the improvement.

Hmmmm... I think the business who sent out this ad may be popular here on ASR... :oops: Nonetheless, would you be so inclined to believe this claim ? .

You have a lot of great experience ! Since this thread is about 'reliability', the words Porsche and Mercedes are not at the top of my list in that regard. And some of that may be related to anecdotal information, but after having several VW's in the late 70's & 80's, I still have an...

Thinking back to a time when things were repairable - or at least temporarily fixable - I can recall my parents having to throw away several tube type televisions. Yes, you could get parts and yes, there were shops close by to ' repair ' these, but the reliability ( and performance ) was just...

The vinyl wrap on the DBR 62 is somewhat disappointing, BUT it likely doesn't scratch easily like the M16's finish might.( or so it would appear from photos I've seen ) And the seam on the bottom is , well, on the bottom where no one but you will know it's there . I think the look is kind of...

Christmas arrived early this year. Somehow my credit card magically ordered a pair [ insert shame emoticon here ] of these Reference DBR-62's . They are very enjoyable in my listening space without any EQ'ing. This is very fortunate, since with my insatiable OCD, I would have the need to be...

Hypex NCore modules - seem to be a Yea at this point in time. I may be more a*al than some, but I would not purchase an 'assembled' amp unless they can provide safety certification compliance.. I think it is possible for an assembler to self-certify in some cases .. And they may be exempt...

In the not so distant future, aliens who monitor this forum , will arrive with advanced equipment and new testing methodologies which will likely - and only then - be able to finally put to rest these type of discussions.. ..Until then, just relax and enjoy your music.

<<Channeling Jeff Foxworthy >> YOU might be an engineer if -- you measurebate frequently.. :facepalm:

I would have expected Mick to go before Charlie Watts.... It would have been nice to have heard more from him on how he managed to integrate himself into a seemingly incongruent position for such a long time..

Reminds me while walking down Canal St. In NYC, you would frequently hear folks whispering 'Watches, Watches , Rolex, Movato' while they carefully looked over the neighborhood for any police activity...

I 'hear' you loud and clear... To me you 'sound' like you've already made up your mind. You seem to want to re capture what you heard but the reality is, no one here can do that for you and your ears.. Large caps, large toroids, conservative ratings, beefy internals etc. seem to be what you...

IF I were wanting to make a purchase, then I'd see if there had been a test/review here. I would count the results here with more weight than what I could possibly find elsewhere, but I doubt a review here would be the sole reason to purchase. or not. . EDIT:: Does anyone here remember the...

For physical media ( mainly CD's ), I have a sequential number assigned and taped to each disk clamshell, in no particular order. The music server I use allows me to store that number in a special field and search on any other field and metadata .. . So, even if I don't have the CD ripped...

. Fortunately, the gods were listening and they created the 'ignore' feature.... :)
