    SkyFi Audio is a small startup business specializing in the purchase, reconditioning, and reselling of select high end audio equipment. We only buy equipment that we admire and are passionate about. No mid-fi, no gimmicks, and no junk.
    Each piece of equipment is cosmetically restored and fully tested in our well-equipped lab by an engineer with 30+ years of experience in the HiFi world. If it does not meet or exceed the original manufactures specifications, it will not be sold. We are very selective about the equipment we purchase, focusing on mostly analog, high-build quality, American, and European built units.

    I owned a pair of the Dahlquist DQ10s for quite a while. For their time, they were fantastic. I drove them with a SAE2400 and a Dayton Wright preamp. Those were the days.

      @@SkyFiAudio You mentioned doing a review of the DQ10s, I would really enjoy that, the DQ10s were in the first real "audiophile" system I ever heard around 35 years ago! The owner of that system had them powered by a Sumo Gold and a GAS Ampzilla powering a pair of DQ1 subs if that helps with your amp question.

    Another drool fest - thanks, Fernando. I just love your attention to detail and the fact that you really care about the cosmetics. I know, it's all about the sound (😉), but this kit also tends to look beautiful as well. I am presuming that the Mac faceplates come direct from Mac? If this is the case, huge kudos to them for supporting all of these products. I'm guessing they are unique in going quite this far. Outstanding service. Keep up the good work, Fernando👍👍👍

    I really enjoy your videos, hope you'll keep them coming! Its a real pleasure to see equipment I grew up drooling over, like McIntosh, B&O, and Dahlquist. I am currently the extremely happy owner of Harbeth 40.1s, which to my ear can outshine speakers that cost much more.

    Ha I had a pair of DQ10's, way back when. Very good speaker, especially when paired with a good sub, but my Vandersteen 2c's were definitely an improvement.
    I forget the electronics and table I used with them, maybe a PS audio power amp and a Audio Research SP4 preamp, which I had modified down the road. The PS Audio sounded fabulous with Rogers LS3/5A's. Very punchy.
    I was going through a lot of equipment at the time.

    Had the TacT rcs. Its was a game changer but it relies on your ability to tweak it correctly and I never felt I was getting the best out of it so I traded for the later Lyngdorf system that is automated and not reliant on my limited ability.
    I'd never be without room correction now.

    Nice stuff!
    A couple of thoughts.
    Are you sure the Linn arm is mounted correctly on the Roksan? Just eyeballing, it looks to me like it might have just been dropped into a Rega mounting hole, which would put it too far from the platter.
    That Stax box isn't an amplifier. It's an interface to go between an existing loudspeaker amp, and older type Stax headphones. It also is designed for the standard bias Stax models, and won't work with the currently sold "Pro bias" Stax headphones.

    • @SkyFiAudio
      @SkyFiAudio  Год назад

      Thanks for the tips! I measured the spindle to pivot on the Roksan and it was spot on. There was previously a Linn in place not a Rega. Yes, thanks for the clarification on the Stax. Cheers.

    Hi and thank you for the excellent look around...I may be able to help you with the Musical Fidelity 300 two box Nu Vista power amp..yes one is the power supply and the other is the amp...the amp was altered in production as it was running too hot and two pairs of output devices were removed to make it more reliable at the cost of sound reproduction and drive....however all is not lost as I have in my secret cupboard a factory (never made available) conversion kit to bring it back to the spec (and better) it should have been plus some alterations to give it reliability. Once done the unit will tear anything else to pieces and sound like nothing you have heard before.........I only have ONE of these factory conversions....interested....I thought so!

      It’s called a passion, and a hobby. Its quite healthy for Humans to do. You shouod find 1 or 2. I stated with Hobbies as a child, and it has been very beneficial. Also. How would you know what he “resells”? Why you would accuse him of being rich. If you know him so well why are you acting like he is a stranger? Thats very odd. Then you accuse him of having no life when he is clearly a very busy business owner, that has a large community behind him locally, and online. It really just shows that your comment was made by an ignorant individual trying to put someone down. This makes you a gross insult to the people who raised you. Maybe thats why you act like you do? To spite those who raised you. Or youre acting out because no one raised you. Either way get some help, and talk to someone. The world will be a better place when your a better person.
