For sure your source chain < tip/fit… a THX Dac V’s Burr Brown…THX is a Hasselbald’s perfect picture of a Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night…but if you’ve been lucky enough to see it first hand then it’s more than a picture, the pallet knife and brush strokes are deep, the colours and textures laid down tells as much as the final piece…some things can’t be bottled.
Uh oh spaghettios
Yes sir - I have a feeling the THX amps have something about them, something a little special in their delivery of the sound.
I reckon I’m going to buy a K7 off Amazon to see if there’s a noticeable difference in sound quality to my stack at home - if not, a quick and easy return is in order but I just have to feed this curiosity. It’s almost overwhelming! But I will say - the stack was singing to me last night and this morning. Listened to music for about 5 hours collectively and it was highly enjoyable- the problem that I then have, is wondering “what does a better amp/DAC combo sound like?” And then the rabbit hole re-opens it’s never ending, really.
Edit: alright, fuck it - I ordered the K7.
Graphs aren’t everything, but that cut in the air frequencies cannot be denied, no? It could still be a very enjoyable set though, no doubt about it.
Ya that’s a worry for sure - saying uh oh to myself because I bought it
I’m sure it’ll be decent, no doubt it.

Good to know - he seems like a good dude. Thanks for the run down on the post #, but I was saying sharing the exact post, I was on mobile. It’s fairly easy with desktop
Fool, you ain’t understanding what I’m saying
I’m saying when I want to share a specific post, not jump to one… maybe I’m misunderstanding - when I click on share using a mobile, it just allows me to “copy” but then when I paste, I get this;
Hit paste = Post in thread ‘The discovery thread!’
Not a link…. Dammit, Riku
oh lol, I always just click on the post link specifically then copy paste that URL link.
But can you speak more slowly next time that we from Eastern Europe have to rewind the clip several times
Gotcha
Excellent post from baskingshark:
Question for the people who have listened to planars: which ones come off sounding DD-like for y’all?
P-A-N-D-A, baby
Old men have their treble hearing freaking fall off a cliff!
