    It Finally Happened: Not One, but TWO Heart Attacks

    All the best on your recovery. Yours is a cautionary tail for all to listen to your body. If it’s ’not right’, stop and think and not be afraid to ask for help. I find my 60+ year old body telling me things but my 25 yr old brain won’t listen.

    Esoteric to Bricasti?

    Here is my experience. I starting using my M21 via the Network input as a DAC/PRE and was very happy for a few years. Other Bricasti owners highly recommended I try the M20 which I did with Brian’s help. I was able to demo an M20 in my room. That showed no real changes to the sound. The...

    Building a system around ROON for local/ripped/downloaded files and making it better than CD playback...

    I can attest there is a clear difference, when using an Antipodes K50, between ROON server and player, ROOM server & Squeeze Player and Squeeze for all functions. What sounds best is personal but I have landed on ROON server & Squeeze player as my solution. It’s provides the meta data rich...

    Block Audio any experience ?

    I just installed the Block Line and Mono SE amplification in my room. It is as good as I remember hearing at Suncoast. I am very pleased.

    Esoteric to Bricasti?

    I am moving to a European brand Pre/Mono Block combo. I have heard them driving my speakers and never heard anything as good since. A deal came up and my nervosa kicked in. Time will tell if they will sound better than my M32s in my room but that is the hobby. I am a big fan of Bricasti...

    Esoteric to Bricasti?

    Shameless plug. Wouldn’t your system look and sound even better with a pair of Bricasti M32s sitting aside that rack?

    Block Audio any experience ?

    True dat. The low end was a bit ‘strong’ as the room was, or nearly was, square. I know all about that issue.

    Block Audio any experience ?

    Suncoast Audio in Sarasota FL carries Block Audio. I have heard the Block Audio Amp / PreAmp combo driving Kharma DB11-S and it was sublime. The sound had more emotion than a SS Boulder 2160? amp we also listened to that day.
