Don't see the point in @rman9 or anyone else taking personal potshots at Mike when the guy was just trying to shed light on a rather complex topic like computer/server/streamer/digital audio. You don't have to 100% agree with the guy but at least acknowledge the effort, even if some of the motivation is to sell his services or products. You learn a lot from people who post that stuff that you won't get from your typical brick and mortar dealers who mostly don't know how the black boxes work that they sell or what exactly is in those black boxes. My B&W dealer didn't have the slightest clue what was inside the Innuos Statement he was demoing for me, and was not the slightest bit embarrassed about that lol. My Porsche dealer on the other hand gave me a 2 hour dissertation on the PDK transmission versus the 7 speed manual on the 2023 Carrera T soon to be released, and now most likely if I pull the trigger I will be making a truly informed decision... just wish all dealers of high end products were as professional.
Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy
Not sure if anyone caught this, but it's quite the take down of some of the very expensive server/streamer stuff out there. It seems logical to me -- especially when he prices out what some of the internal components are -- but this is above my pay grade so I cannot confirm. It's here: https://youtu.be/MMSC9-qQ_K4
Wonder if others agree or disagree with the basic takedown.
