| Streaming + DAC questions. Please help this noob! The Bluesound Node 2 and Ayre should sound VERY SWEET. I have the Node 2 and a Benchmark DAC, but quite honestly the Node 2 playing MQA by itself can sound amazing. | |
| In search for speakers of "natural" sound I like Vandersteen speakers. I will say though I have not heard as many speakers others here on AG have heard. But so far, these speakers sound the most organic and natural to me. It does take some effort to set them up correctly and they need spa... | |
| How many of you believe in MQA? Big_Greg is correct. You don’t need the computer. That is why the Node2 was designed as a one-in-all player. The Bluesound is a DAC and streamer all in one. It can be linked to a NAS or your own library of music as well, but one does not have to d... | |
| Cleveland, OH Yeah that was fun on Sat. Good times, cool tunes. Thanks to the host and all who came, but are there are more audiophiles who want to be part of the club? Tgun share with us all those first rate Jazz CDs that was spinning? | |
| Top Ten "Definitions of an Audiophile" Audiophile: "One who cannot understand why they are fascinated by overpriced boxes of wires"(one should not confuse the term "Audiophile" with the term "Audiofool" or "Audionut".Audiofool: "One who cannot stop buying different boxes of wires with ... | |
| Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room There are many choices of speakers to include all models and manufacturers...and that is a good thing, since all audiophiles having different considerations and taste/preferences in sound. I say get what you fancy and be happy. Whatever you think ... | |
| Brands that have the least depreciation As it has been said, McIntosh, Thorens, Marantz, ARC and others. I think particular models of brands are even more indicative of this. Some JBL speaker models, maybe the Garrard 301, some Marantz, Sansui, Pioneer receivers of the USA glory days of... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon Nonoise- Another interesting tidbit on a particular manufacturer and his forum on Audiocircle. I had a very bad experience with him and his equipment and from time to time shared those truthful comments with objectivity and honesty with other AC m... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon Nonoise,Yes audiocircle does have manufacturer forums, but mostly they are for true fans of the products THAT manufacturer makes. If one posts any negative experiences they can/are banned from the forum by the moderator who is the rep or owner of ... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon It is not difficult to spot dealers who are arrogant, condescending and want to push their products. They state their wisdom? and experience as so much more valuable than whatever information anyone else is adding to a thread. The funny thing for ... | |
| Can You Fell the Love Tonight? I fell off a ladder last summer, and I felt it! | |
| The Golden era of Japanese integrated amps, are we missing out? Actaman, “If it sounds great to you, then it’s s great. Don’t let any “expert” opinions convince you otherwise. You have achieved your own personal audio Nirvana. Enjoy it! If it fails, get it fixed, then enjoy it some more. “I could not agree mor... | |

| Looking for a good full range floor stander One of the things audiotroy never mentions is service and support. I really don’t understand this. One can have a great sounding speaker, that they paid a hefty price for, and the workmanship or design is such that it does not last. Having to have... | |
| Looking for a good full range floor stander I think audiotroy would be the last dealer I would buy speakers from. |
