    Parasound New Classic 2125 v2 vs. New Classic 2250 v2

    Hello, it's my first thread on this forum. I noticed that some Audio Karma users own Parasound amps or have more experience with them, so I decided to create an account and ask about differences between New Classic 2125 v2 and New Classic 2250 v2. I have Dali Oberon 7 speakers and I want to...

    Intro

    Good morning, I've always had a fondness for solid audio equipment and prized myself on being a step above what most people had, but when my AT LP-60 died I decided to start to really look into what I can do to build a nice sound system that isn't centered around my home theater system. It...

    Topping D70 DAC, Schiit Audio BiFrost 2 Multibit listening impressions thread

    Hello, I searched and did not find a thread that focuses on the listening impressions (**not** technical specifications or measurements or charts or graphs) of the Topping 70 DAC, so perhaps this will start one. I am also interested in how the current D70 compares to the current Schiit Audio...

    Schiit Saga review, and system synergy

    Back in June I picked up a pair of KEF 104/2's. Driving them with a Rotel RX-1052 they sounded very good, but thought there was room for improvement (Ferrofluid replace, but not recapped yet). Bass seemed to be loose and ill defined. Last week I had some extra time and swapped in my Sansui...

    Hey folks! Is anyone out there using the new Schiit Freya+ preamp? Just wondering what people think of theirs as far as sound quality. I know not many are in circulation yet, but thought I’d ask. I’m presently using their original Saga passive pre and while it sounds clear and clean, I want...

    Should I replace my DAC for a 24bit one?

    Hello there. I own a Schiit Modi Multibit DAC, which sounds just fine in my system (paired with a little tube amp and Cabasse speakers). Now, since I bought it I've been stocking a huge and growing library of Hi-Res music (mostly 24/96 FLACs), and so I started wondering whether I should go for a...

    Luckybaer's Current Set-Up

    Each piece in the system has a story to tell... My turntable is a Kenwood KD-2070 purchased used for about $35 on eBay nearly a decade ago. Only recently did I decide to "get back into" vinyl, so it has been seeing a lot of work. I currently have it loaded with an Audio-Technica VM750SH...

    anyone heard the Schiit Ragnarok??

    Hi everyone. I've read a review and a few threads online regarding the Schiit Ragnarok Integrated. The one review I read was a little overly enthusiastic which I'm taking as a grain of salt.. and many of the threads seem to rip the company apart without actually listening to their products...
