I'm using Alto Extremo NeoFlex footers from Germany under my DAC and they work really well and tightened things up. PM for more details, they just released new LSP footers for loudspeakers as well.
That was me that posted the review about the Hemingway USB cable. I still have that cable in my system and for 2022, I've become an official distributor/seller for Hemingway audio. Z core cables are another level. Send me a message if interested. Beta and alpha are both very good. The other two...
Sounds like BS. Damage control. Both units are good. Digital audio moves fast and K50 does have a different sound signature, its not impossible for someone to prefer it to a more analytical presentation.
I sold my EX and P2 for almost the same price as I paid for them new a few months ago because I knew that this was going to happen. They know audiophiles are gonna keep drinking the kool-aid so they'll keep pushing it and once these units get moving already technology will be one step ahead...
Can you try the EX+P2 and compare it to the CX+EX+P2? Also, what kind of music are you mostly listening to. Streamed from TIDAL via roon or local files (44.1/16) played back from Roon? Let us know what your impressions are with that comparison and also the rest of your system setup so we can...
Returning my CX back to the dealer. I'm happy with the EX+P2 and the addition of the CX did not really add a noticeable improvement in SQ for me to justify adding it to the system. Streaming was identical and local playback improved slightly with the way the music flowed but had to listen so...
Hi guys,
As the title suggests, need some advice or suggestions for internal wire upgrades for a speaker. I'm replacing some van den heul cs12/16 with dalby audio's new 320s silver/copper wire. Do the guages make any significant difference? I put in the dalby running for about 120hrs which is...
Latest is 2.7 for the software. I tried a SATA cable but ended up taking it out as there is such limited space inside it makes putting things back together too complicated. I had a pachanko pure reference SATA. I suppose it was a bit better (not worth wasting time breaking in 300hrs) and had to...
Hi Tuckia,
The EX is connected via USB to the P2 reclocker and then from the P2 i have a COAX SPDIF cable going to the input of my Kinki Studio Vision1 DAC (I also have a word clock cable sync'd to the clock of the P2 from the word clock BNC input of the Kinki.
I tried lots of combinations -...
Agreed on the point of the quality of support from the team at Antipodes. These guys are always there to answer questions and help and super professional. Great experience dealing with them from the beginning.
I'm hanging on to the CX for another 2 weeks or so and then going to give it back to...
I think the EX+P2 reclocker closes the gap between the CX+EX. The combo does sound good but I suppose depends on how revealing the system is. In my experience the addition of the CX on my system does make an improvement even with the P2 but not major so hard for me to justify adding it into the...
I have the AT2 tube traps. Definitely controls the bass as bass traps normally do but with these I found quite a bit more detail/information in the midrange for monitoring which some other prosumer ones don't really do.
I'm using them behind me with front ported bookshelves.
This Antipodes stack is very underrated. It's pretty impressive. Musical and organic sounding, I tested local playback and didn't think I could squeeze any more performance out of my speakers but there is even better separation and ease now. Will have to see how good Santa is and gift me this...
Thanks for your reply Ian! I just borrowed the CX from my dealer to demo in my setup. So currently its with the ex and P2 all together. Will update with my impressions as I spend time with it. By the way you guys pay quite a bit over there in the UK for the combo. Hope the GBP improves.
I think the CX+EX in an ideal environment can give the SGM Extreme a run for it's money. Also considering the size of the Antipodes, they are well built.
I have the EX with the P2 platform and considering getting the CX but not sure how much more a CX would give in my scenario. I love the EX, very musical and smooth but also plenty of detail all across the frequency spectrum.
Hi guys,
I'm new here and have to ask, is there any particular reason why there is 48gb of RAM needed here? I hope there is no AI processing going on in the music server hehe.
Is it possible to order with less ram? Seems a bit overkill and I know that that ram is definitely not cheap.
Thanks
