I use snipboard.io, you upload your photo then use the link they give you to insert the photo into your post here.
So, I use both Flickr.com and imgbb.com, I use Flickr for my more personal stuff, and imgbb for hosting more generic images. Here are instructions for imgbb, Flickr is similar... I like to create an account and albums, so that I can go back and easily find my images for reuse at a later time so... Create an account at imgbb.com, an account isn't necessary, but it makes organizing you images easier, and it's also much easier to find them again later, if you want to use them again. So first go to imgbb.com and click create account, follow the instructions they provide, it's similar to creating an account at a forum. Similar to attaching an image to a post here, you attach/upload the image to your account at imgbb.com... Click the Start Uploading button... End of part one due to image per post limited to 5
Post images part 2 Choose the image you want to upload... Then choose "BBCode Full Linked" or if the image is really big "BBCode Medium Linked"... Then copy the code they provide... Lastly, paste it into your post...
I owned the DAC 2 Cherry for three years. Comparing it with the tour Starkcrimson Stereo Ultra on the same system… very similar top end and midrange…both had a big soundstage, great detail, no harshness or sibilance. The big difference in my system was the low end… the Ultra was just better… better detail, more powerful… it just sounded more correct. The 2 Cherry was a great amp when it came out four years ago and still holds its own against much of the competition..the Ultra is a step up.

All my cables are Diy. The entire front wall is all acoustic panels. The soffits are used as bass traps. All corners are bass trapped. My room is set up for reviewing equipment. Leo I will definitely give you a true review. I will be using the amp in multiple setups in different rooms. Like I said my setup will be the hardest. As they are 3 way active speakers. I will most likely try different combinations to find out the strengths and weaknesses. I have choices. I could use the Orchards on the bass and Cherry's elsewhere. Or Orchards everywhere, or nowhere. We will see. Ron by the way my name is Ron. I appreciate your assessment since you have the Cherry amps. All mine are King versions but the ones on my bass are the Golden Cherries with the triple capacitance and the 60 volt supplies. I don't know what you had. But I actually have plenty of bass. I am looking for maybe a little more coherence in the instrumentation. And since I am having a hard time getting these repaired it seems like it may be time to sell them.
Not the cabinets. They are from a kit. But it was my design. Then SB Acoustics made there version with the Beryllium tweeter. Mine has the Textreme tweeter.
I actually stole the cabinets from the Sasandu from SB Acoustics. I used the same size drivers but all Textreme. Mine aren't passive. I have a Marchand XM44 crossover with discrete opamps and 6 yes six King Maraschino amps with 6 custom power supplies from Microaudio. I made the boxes and all the wiring. And even changed some of the stock caps. All the binding posts are WBT and the internal wiring is VH Audio's awesome OCC copper. The outriggers are Soundocity modified by me to take the isoacoustics Gaia footers. Best sounding speakers I have ever heard by a mile. Sorry for all the off topic posts. It was getting boring waiting for the reviews to come.
I don't know about that. I have 5 year old and I have found Disney content to be extremely well mastered. There are certain things that can easily be used as refrence tracks in my opinion.
I pulled the trigger for Starkrimson monoblocks with optional Gan power supply and 3 ft short speaker cables. TAS_Product_Of_The_Year_2021.pdf The above review by Dick Olsher is informative. It will be nice if Leo can ship it tomorrow. best Thomas
