We had some shots of the Oppo Mods taken recently and added to the photo galleries. They’re beautiful…

Our friend Gary with Elpa Shaw in Thailand set up a fantastic room at an A/V show in down town Bangkok…

I am currently listening to hi-rez streaming files from my PC through the USB inputs on the Oppo 105, using the Oppo’s DACs, feeding our tube analog stage. I am comparing two different external power supply designs…

The 105 will be a WORLD CLASS player AND DAC, with our tube analog stage, for < $3500 and will perform at the $10K+ range ABSOLUTELY!

I believe that we often lose sight of what audio equipment is designed to do….to produce music as natural and accurately as possible.

If I could sum up the theme of the evening in one thought:
Music, sharing, energy and revelation.

Bravo Kurt, for a great evening and for Echo Audio, offering a gateway to the joys of music through quality audio gear for ALL.

‘Modern Integration’ is a GOOD thing. Computers, smart phones, Integrated amps and the way we enjoy music is changing, for the better.

I believe that Dan Wright has really “hit the ball out of the park” with his new KWI 200 Integrated Amplifier. Because of its build quality, handsome, physical appearance along with its beautiful rendering of the music’s timbres, warmth and details without losing its punch or macro-dynamics, I would classify the KWI 200 as one of the best integrated amps on the market today, regardless of price. I would strongly recommend to put this on your audition list if your think you are in the process of selecting an integrated amp for your system.

…To not enjoy the finer things in life.

I did some research into this and found a way to lower the phono gain by approximately 15dB, without any sacrifice in sonics
