| Basic system for living room I like the Parasound Integrated amp and whichever bookshelf speakers you might like. Listening is everything. Brands I would audition are Paradigm, Monitor Audio, KEF, B&W, and many others. If you get the amp new, you could buy a pair of speak... | |
| Basic system for living room Do you prefer digitalmusic? Library of digital files? Computer as source? Will you stream music? How about analog? Turntable and record albums? What kind of music? Jazz and acoustic or pop and rock? Classical? Size of room? Remote access important... | |
| Digital Audio for Dummies I agree with @rhljazz, @uberwaltz, and others on the Bluesound Vault 2. A very nice piece of audio gear that takes the computer out of the equation. Another note- One of the best things to know about Bluesound is the committment they have placed i... | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 1) Yes we must have fun with this hobby, I agree. When Bo begins to add his two cents, I must admit I laughed till the tears came. | |
| New system! That is a very big jump. Have fun now. What will be your source? Just a note, for home theatre listening it is sometimes important to have similar timbre with all speakers and also level matching. This is more ideal with speakers of the same brand... | |
| New or Old CD Player? If you are still looking for another CD player. There is one here on audiogon that looks very nice. An old Sony SCD-1. Old but I bet, very good! | |

| High End is Dead? Tell you what I think. You are a troll who instigates fights for your own amusement. You incite and inflame, for what reason??? As I had pointed out in one of your other senseless posts. Find a hobby that will not start fights.... like badminton o... | |

| New to DAC, need advice. “@2psyop I’m streaming Tidal HiFi from my Windows 10 PC to the ZDac via USB then into a Micromega IA-100 integrated. So I’m ok with USB to the Pro-ject. I like the dual mono as well and it’s certainly in my price range. I’m curious about your comm... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. Ratboysr- I am wondering about your setup. I think the Project Pre-box S2 will only input a digital audio MQA signal via usb. Optical or coax will not. I don’t know if you are using a computer with Tidal app via USB as a source, but that might be ... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 as a preamp? +2 KalaliI have used the Node 2 in various configurations and performs well in some, mediocre in others. I try to remember the price which makes it a “budget” component. Many are using it as a streamer, wired or wireless link to digital library, p... | |
| New to DAC, need advice. jond- good question! I don’t think the ZDAC will play MQA or hi-res files. If the OP is not trying to playback redbook quality he might?? be getting problems with the device. Try spotify or other streaming services orbtry Tidal non-hirez material ... | |
