    New darTZeel CTH 8550 MKII owner experience

    I am a proud and ecstatic owner of a Dartzeel CTH 8550 MK2. Was inspired by Michaels Fremmer and Lavigne. Fremmer is on the record, in print, of asking Herve why Dartzeel is so different. Indeed it is different from any amp I have experienced in 50 years at this. CHT stands for Close to Heaven...

    Is there a "World's Best Cartridge?"

    I believe that a cartridge and a speaker, by far, contribute the most to SQ. The two transducers in a system. I bit the bullet and bought a Lyra Atlas SL for $13K for my Woodsong Garrard 301 with Triplanar SE arm. I use a full function Atma-Sphere MP-1 preamp. My $60K front end. It is...

    Pilium Audio in action-

    I just had the lovely opportunity to experience Bob Vineyard’s Pilium set up with the large Bayz. Stunning! Gob smacted! Interesting that when I came home and listened to my more modest $130K system I was satisfied. My speakers (Tetra 606) use the legendary ATC dome midrange. And that produces a...

    Live music vs. Recorded music

    "Emotionally Engaging"

    Not to open the can of worms, analog is the only way I get emotionally engaged. That is the nature of my systems. When I take a deep breath, I get that emotional sensation in my gut. I have a digital headphone system in my office. (Bakoon amp, ZMF Verite cans, Schitt DAC) It sounds great. But it...

    New Recording Technique At New Record Label By David Chesky

    Thought I knew that Chesky released vinyl. But do they still have vinyl titles? If so, I would certainly buy some.

    New Recording Technique At New Record Label By David Chesky

    I asked Chesky more than once if they had LPs. Seems all they have is digital. Haven’t they ever produced vinyl?

    Best audiophile headphones

    ZMF Verite at $2500 are the sweet spot for me. Probable not the ultimate but they sound very natural and excellent. I tried Audeze and Stenheiser. They just fit my taste.
