Herbie's

Posted by Quint on June 11, 2017 at 06:48:26:
Hi, Josh:

I don't know how much help I can be of here, but in my second system I use Herbie's Tenderfeet under my Coda integrated amp and Oppo 103D.

Sometimes I alternate Aurios Pros under the Oppo, but there it's more of a case of simply different flavors than the Aurios or Tenderfeet being significantly better overall than the other. (The Aurios bring out a little more HF detail, IMO, while the TenderFeet are a bit more even-handed across the spectrum.)

Given their very generous return policy and (IME) excellent sonics, I think the Herbie's are a no-brainer to try.

If you want me to go into a little more detail about SQ, I'll do my best.

Take care.

Andy
