Re: Mobile Phones with Better Sound
The problem with iphones is getting a decent signal to an external DAC. I've had no success. Really, I have no problems there. I use an older model of this DAC with a lightning connection on one end and a headphone socket at the other end. https://www.adv-sound.com/collections/audio-adapters/produc...

Re: Charlie1's System
I have far better experiences with the Kabers, a friend had them first active with LK100, which was pretty ok for the time. With 3 x LK280 + Spark they really came on song and we had a lot of fun listening very loud until late in the night.

Re: Hermanns System
@Hermann: Maybe the new Graham 5/5f floorstanders are the right speakers for you? I was very impressed by them at the Norddeutsche HiFi-Tage this year.
Were the 5/5 you borrowed brand new?

Re: Hermanns System
I only listened to "Take Five" and preferred G2, the drummer sounded a bit disjointed on G1.

Nice! But aren't they a bit tight, so that it's hard to get the records out?

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I prefer "now" as well, I find it makes the rhythm of the song clearer.

Re: What Makes a Loudspeaker Musical?
I hate Kans! They are too transistor radioey for me. May I ask which source and amps were used in front of the Kans? They are quite sensitive there and reveal lesser sources ruthlessly. With a top-LP12 from that time, Kairn pre-amp and 2 x Klouts, they sounded all but anemic and certainly not trans...

Re: Akurate DSM modifications
Yes, I have. There are a number of those out there. Unfortunately I have yet to hear one. But judging by Mr. Volk's views and comments on the improvements, I suspect they aim primarily at "improving the sound" and not the tune. So beware and do listen before taking such a step or buying one second-h...
