    S3 MK3 (2023) Arrived

    Any update? Mine will arrive on 9/12 this coming week. The dealer is coming 11 days later(9/23) to help set them up. My gut tells me to install them and start breaking them in before the dealer gets here as opposed to having the dealer installing them for the first time on 9/23 and setting...

    Thx :) I have the esoteric and 2110 preamp plugged into Stromtank with satisfying results. My 2160 has a 240v line for it since my Stromtank cannot handle it

    Shout out to KingRex for electrical help

    Just wanted to share a very positive experience I had with Rex Hungerford aka KingRex, an audiophile who is an electrician. I had a consultation with him and told him that I already spent many thousands of $ on electrical work with very limited results. Note I had since bought a Stromtank 2500...

    Center Stage 2

    That is a tough one, looks like u can get 3 on non-perforated areas except for that one corner, hopefully Joe will advise. I would still expect it to sound better than none even though one is on the perforated area.

    Center Stage 2

    Just wanted to let all know that the CS2s how now resettled and the sound is amazing, better than before. It seems it is quite important to have a flat interface for the top of the CS2 to couple to for optimal performance .

    Center Stage 2

    I have CS2s under all my equipment for a little while now (6 weeks plus), recently my sound became diffuse, less focused and the noise floor went up I am losing details that used to emerge so clearly. The only thing I can try to explain it with is that on Monday I noticed 2 of the 4 CS2s under...

    Any experience with Panasonic DP-UB9000 movie player?

    Ore clarification I ordered a esoteric k01xd dac/transport, if I also buy a Panasonic DP-UB9000 for playing movies can I bypass the Panasonic dac and play the movie audio through k01xd (for improved sound quality) when watching movies via the Panasonic? I see the Esoteric has 2 digital inputs...

    Center Stage 2

    I recently ran a test and just removed my CS2s from resting on my symposium iso platform to now resting on the rack wood shelf, I much prefer sound without the symposium which surprised me. The electronic piece the test was performed on was a CD player.
