    System #526 (Ethos)

    The remote is programmable to control the Peachtree which is nice. Very minimalistic approach

    System #526 (Ethos)

    System update: Bluesound Node 2i, Apple TV 4K and Peachtree Carina GaN. Very simple set up now. I like the Peachtree much better than my previous tube pre + class AB amp. It has a "Dacless" design and features new GaN FETs instead of traditional Mosfets. No idea where the upgrade is coming...

    Integrated amp advice for ML

    I pulled the trigger on the Peachtree Carina GaN. It checks the most boxes and I could get a new unit for less than the others used. The factory is actually a few miles from my home so i was able to pick it up directly from the factory. So far it is a huge jump forward in transparency...

    Integrated amp advice for ML

    I still have yet to "upgrade" as I am quite happy with the current sound even if I don't love the aesthetics. I was thinking again about an integrated and 1 in particular would allow me to try it in house for a 30 day trial. The new Peachtree Carina GaN, looks very interesting. I only need...

    Do you think the Hautonga is on par with the Hegel H390? I already have a blue sound streamer and a decent DAC (Channel islands VDA-2) so the Plinius would be a great deal

    Good advice, thank you. The Mark Levinson 5805 also looks interesting

    Still have not made a change. I am thinking about changing again. Considering the Hegel h390 or the Yamaha a2200. I wish I could listen to them but they both review well.

    I also saw that audio research has a new tube integrated the i/50. Obviously this would be tube and not SS but with the powered bass in the Ethos 50w may be enough

    Integrated amp advice for ML

    i think the Edge A and the Plinius Haoutonga look like potential finalists based on all the feedback. Thank you everyone for all of the insight. Does the Edge A allow you to control the volume via an app? Not necessary but a nice feature

    The Plinius Hautonga looks interesting. Some reviews say it can be a bit aggressive on the top end but it also says that will settle down if the unit is left on all the time. I feel that the top end is a bit soft with my B&K so this could be a good thing. They are a great deal on the used market.

    i think i do want SS so the Pass Labs would be great if I can find one in my price range. I saw a used Levinson 5802 which looks nice since I am only using digital sources. anyone have any experience with the Cary si300 or the Luxman 507 or 505?

    Integrated amp advice for ML

    I have been researching integrated amps to pair with my Ethos + SVS SB3000 and i think i have a winner but wanted some input. I would like to move up in quality and simplify so a nice integrated is attractive. I have a Juicy music Peach II tube preamp, CIA VDA-2 DAC and B&K 200.2. 2 channel...

    New GaN amplifiers?

    Anyone heard the new GaN amplifier from Peachtree? The Peachtree GaN400 specifically, their website describes the amp as having State-of-the-art GaNFETs (Gallium Nitride Field-Effect Transistors) and it pus out 400 watts per channel for $3K. I am interested in that I would like to see if the...

    System #526 (Ethos)

    Thank you. It’s shiplap, can be found at Lowes. We had a general contractor install it.

    System #526 (Ethos)

    Updated. Replaced RSW-15 with SVS SB 3000 and added Bluesound Node 2i and also switched from Tidal to Apple Music since they added lossless.

    Compact Amp for Ethos

    That is good to hear. I have also thought about a completely different path of either the primaluna evo 400 integrated or the Carver 275 tube amp

    Compact Amp for Ethos

    Interesting. The B&K is 15+ years old so I thought a more modern amp would offer better quality. You think B&K is superior to the newest ICE based amps for Logans ?
