Thanks. I definitely haven't rushed this choice. It's been 18 months of patience. That's my advice for anyone choosing speakers. It's worth the time getting to understand how to read Spinorama. It's then a really useful tool to help find speakers that have been tested that fit your...

Hey nopiano. Yes I am UK based. I got them via the UK dealer Purite Audio. Emailed Keith and told him what I was after. No issues. Good experience. Attached is a pic of my setup. It almost looks generic, but from Spinorama measurements and advice from Ascilabs when they were asked in ASR, this...

Don't think 3 months can be classified as "recent", but here we go. I first read about Ascilabs A6B in January last year after Nuyes megatest and knew it had to go on my audition list as the speaker fit the Spinorama profile I was looking for to go in my lounge. I took delivery of these in...

Hey guys Probably extremely late to the party here, but following on with the suggestion from DCarni in the portable DAC/AMP option is FOSI Audios 2024 version of their DS2 they have just released. You can hook it up via USB A, USB C or Lightening, and is supported on Android devices, Windows...

Hello To add to the replies above, usually the answer is no, but their are exceptions 1. If you are encountering noise generated as a result of a ground loop, XLR is preferred to RCA as it reduces/eliminates this noise (depending on how significant that is). The exception here is Amplifiers...

So doing some reading here on Toppings website and foobar 2000. 1) I presume you are using Bluetooth here in Bridgemode to use DLNA/Airplay. UPNP is not supported on the M50. 2) Running like this you are capped to audio files that are up to 24bit/96Khz . If you try to stream anything higher...

Interesting. What language tracks are you playing? My car Entertainment system, IPOD, and some media players have a fit when I send some Japanese Language metadata for example and exhibit similar issues. Have you also tried contacting Topping Support? I have always found them helpful when I...

Standard Fibre will be FTTC, so not not a pure fibre connection which will explain your speed issue. Wont be helped if the contractors pulling the fibre up the road have damaged any of the copper in the road. Unfortunately their are alot of crazy contractors out and about. One bunch were...

Hi Flash Just to clarify this, do you have Fibre to the Premises, or Fibre to the Cabinet? If you have fibre into your house then the package speed you sign up to should be what is delivered into your house. If it's fibre to the cabinet, then you'll have degredation due to the copper that...

I haven't listened to the 560S to be able to do a direct comparison on that. Although I found the bass to be ok out of the box with the Focal Elegia, deploying EQ has made it much more impressive.

I'm with Gray on this. As an owner of the Amirons as well as other headphones, I would be giving the Amirons a considerably wide berth. Focal Elegias for £379 is an absolute no brainer. You can probably get them for cheaper in Europe if that's where you are based. The Amirons have a bloated...
