    Memory Player 2023

    I had an MP years ago. Thankfully, I now own a Lucas Audio LDMS Music server. I could not be happier. It is one of the most important components of my system. I am sorry to read about this kind of stories and hope for the best for you.

    Can digital get to vinyl sound and at what price?

    I had a phono 20+ years ago with scratched-up 14-minute-a-side albums. I had not heard vinyl since. In the last 10 years, as I built up my current and last system, I have been 100% digital. I have had outstanding DAC's in Lumin X-1. Lampi Horizon and Pacific and my current DAC AC Kassandra...

    QSA LANEDRI Series

    What just happened? I have opted to go with QSA Lanedri on most of my Aries Cerat components including the Aurora speakers. As an example, I have the Ultimatum Infinity SC going from the Essentia Amps to the Aurora crossovers. Then I had an Ultimatum Infinity SC going from the Crossover to...

    The Aurora's are coming.

    What an interesting process to uncrate the Aurora's and set them up. The dealer, Robert Do flew in from Sacramento to Phoenix last weekend to help set them up. We also had Stavros on stand-by late into the evening his time in case we had any issues. I could not have set them up by myself even...

    What are the Top Horn Speakers in the World Today? Vox Olympian vs Avantgarde Trio vs ???

    Just hooked up my Aries Cerat Aurora. Yes, they are in a corner against the wall in my family room. This is our main living area so that is where they have to go. In my case, I am missing absolutely nothing in SQ by having them there. I am happy and that is all that matters.

    Review: Lampizator Horizon (vs Pacific 2 & Golden Atlantic TRP3)
