    KEF LS50 Wireless V2

    My friend just bought these and he sent them back. On newer recordings they were capable of some pretty amazing sound for their size and price. However on any classic rock they life was just sucked out of the music. Flat and lifeless. Most music played via Tidal. I think it's fair to say these...

    Homemade Horns

    Very curious to hear your progress. I have the PAP trio coaxials and was toying with the idea of a Joseph Crowe biradial or SEOS horn with a coaxial compression driver from B&C or BMS or possibly the Celestion AXI.

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    I'm guessing a minimum of 100 hours burn in before a switch out the Jupiters for the Miflex to compare. I reached out to PAP to see if I could buy just a set of quintet arms to lift my trios up to quintet ear level.

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    GS I appreciate you taking a stab at why tightening the screws might effect the speakers highs. After I sent that message i was afraid it might come off as a bit of a passive aggressive challenge. Thinking on it with the small compression driver tweeter in the coaxial I could see where external...

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    I honestly have not played much with the tightness of the screws holding the baffles to the frame. I have instinctively always felt you wanted them tight enough to hold them in place but loose enough to limit vibrations in the panel from transferring to the frame and vice versa. I know that's a...

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    GroovySauce Great post. We have very similar goals in what we are attempting to achieve with our listening sessions. Where might I ask did you get that 10ga inductor? I'm guessing that is custom wound. For the coaxial crossover with 4 woofers the inductor in the bass section is 6.8mh / .28 ohm...

    Denafrips Arce Streamer Review

    Thank you for the review. I was considering trying the new Lumin U2 (Non mini) in place of my opticalrendu, Curious why you didnt try this upgrade. I have a Denafrips T2 dac and Iris DDC and youve got my interest peaked at 1000's less. The lack of the optical ethernet in is what attracted me to...

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    I own the trio 15's with the coax and have always wondered how the horns sound in comparison. I run Fidelium cables to my Trio's including the bi-wire option. That little jumper never gave me much confidence. I run a mix of cables from the crossover. When i first got the speakers I felt they...

    Psvane Acme Series (new flagship series)

    I would be interested in the Acme 845 tubes. How much are you looking to get for them? How many hours do they have on them? Thank You.

    Psvane Acme Series (new flagship series)

    Vivatubes.com has apparently picked up sales of Psvane Acme tubes. For now they have the 300B and the 211 only on their site https://www.vivatubes.com/search.php?search_query=Acme&section=product

    Psvane Acme Series (new flagship series)

    If one is determined to buy Acme tubes right now I would recommend considering GD-Parts on Ali Express. They appear to be the only official online dealer of Psvane tubes with an online store. With the loss of Grant Fidelity GD-Parts has raised their prices to match GF's old prices. The caveat...

    Psvane Acme Series (new flagship series)

    Man Kingrex what a drag. I've been watching your progress and waiting to hear your tube reviews. I'm surprised the Wavac's run that hot. They are modern 845 amps and when built nos 845s were already unobtanium prices. What tubes were you running prior to these experiments?
