| How good is good enough? I have stopped thinking of things as good and bad. I just try to enjoy. All the speakers are good. All the amps sound good. Just different flavors of good. Now it is just trying different things and enjoying the sound of a different amp or... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system @mahgister I always enjoy your posts and find them insightful. @skyscraper Congrats. It is hard for others to build your system because it depends on the type of sound you like and the music you listen to. Big money can be spent on a system that... | |
| Focal Sopra n1 - mids are a bit recessed compared to Lumina IIs Why isn't anyone commenting on the amp? I must be missing something. My Focals sound better in the mids with more power. | |
| Made Major Upgrade at $0 Cost in 1 Minute I use my subs very literally as "sub" woofers to augment the main woofers, not as "featured" woofers, but everyone’s situation and preferences are different. I cross them over at the lowest frequency possible, and turn them up so that I barely no... | |
| Streamer Selection - Thoughts Requested Please! @doodlebum Be sure your cable is secure and well connected. My buddy has something similar and the big heavy network cables were loose. Eithernet jacks were not designed for some of these heavy weight cables. | |
| Streamer Selection - Thoughts Requested Please! @norust @doodlebum Any updates that you can share. How do you like the conductor app? Any noticeable difference is sound quality? Any sense of a warmer sound or brighter sound? Thanks. | |
| Looking for intermediate-step Streamer: better than BS Node and not @ Bartok level pricing I am looking at the N150 (or N100). It is used alot at audio shows and is well made. The N150 will have great resell value if you want to swap it out in a year. Like others have said, I would spend in the 3's for a streamer and save the rest fo... | |
| Help settle a streaming argument! I am shopping for a streamer. Does anyone have any links to article or reviews that show the differences in steamer output that results in these night and day differences? Numerous of reviews measure distortion numbers for amps, DACs, and plots/cu... | |
| Bluesound Node N130 You have probably already done this, but mine was doing this and I unplugged the ethernet and power cable for 5 to 10 min and then re-booted it. It fixed it. | |
| Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping? If one were to bi-amp with a tube amp for the tweeters and mids, and a SS amp for the woofers, how does one volume match the signals since these are different amps with different gain? Even if the same wattage the two amps might not be matched? ... | |
| Digital front end upgrade options I would use a node as a streamer only. The interface is stable and easy to use with Qobuz. I got a used on for not much money and it works great. I would then buy an separate DAC. | |
| Why do speakers improve with more powerful amps? In support of what others have said, such as Carls, I have a 100 watt amp, and I bet I am only using the first 15 watts. I think where it becomes more confusing is when a passage has huge bass it or huge horn entry, does the amp have the ability ... | |
| Considering a Node2i, what else should I be looking at? I am happy with my node as a streamer only. I have not compared it with much, but it is better then my computer. I picked it up used for not much $. It has been generally stable. I use Qobuz. The amazon interface is not good although it plays fine... | |
| Best quality connection from Network Streamer (BluSound Node II) to Preamp (MC C2700) I have been pleased with the coaxial RCA output into my dac. | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops It goes back to what the majority of people want. Sadly, it is not quality 2 channel audio. Why is an entirely different topic. There are however, many more stores that sell the audio equipment people want - seems like every where sells bose, o... |
