| How much hum is normal from a new tube amp If the manufacturer does not offer to eliminate the issue - and it IS an issue - or if they refuse to replace the defective amp, then return it immediately. You should hear no hum from the transformers of a new amp. I have (reluctantly) discarded ... | |
| Isn't MCA Dead? Why is TAS touting MQA features in current emails? NQA dieded. I thought I should participate in the ‘spelling excellence’ thread. | |
| EverSolo Streamer Yes, it is relative to what one can afford. Congrats on the Aurender too. No doubt it’s excellent. The EverSolo DMP-A6 performs exceedingly well for its price and to be honest I believe it will be the sort of streamer most people will ever need. T... | |
| EverSolo Streamer Great insight oddiofyi. I would expect the Aurender N200 to be that bit more capable at the $6300 price tag, which is more than 7x the price of the EverSolo DMP-A6. I did try the full decoder / renderer MQA on Tidal for some tracks. I used the in... | |
| Weak Link in Vinyl Playback A tiny cantilever and tip that is so easy to damage. Having to constantly clean older records, But, its worth it. | |
| Just got back in the vinyl community Hi SFVolvo. I am in a position to offer you an excellent recommendation, given your limitation on budget. This little phono stage is crazy good for the money, especially used. It won’t have the same insight vis a vis texture, inner detail, scale,... | |
| Audio Research REF 750 pre July 4 FIRE WORKS. TUBE ARC. My apologies. LoL! I have to laugh at the timing of you tube arc fireworks! I recently took on a job myself, repairing my single ended triode amp. I heard a pop, splurt and puff of acrid smoke accompanied by the smell of burning cap. Opening the ... | |
| Moving again...system finally complete...back to starting over Hi Blackhawkskid6, Audio Science Review have a ‘review’ on an older Devialet model. Pay no mind to it. The Devialet is sensational as an amp, and in fact has a very good DAC too. I hope you get a chance to demo it in a decent system. | |
| Your experience with Synergistic Research Foundation SX speaker cables? I have the Foundation speaker cable (not interconnects) and used them as the prime for well over a year. Still have them, put away. Try the QED Supremus. They cost a bit more but are roughly in the same price ballpark. | |
| EverSolo Streamer After listening to this unit for several days now, I can say with confidence that it is MUCH better than the audio quality for a laptop. Folks such as Lalitk have been saying this for a long time. I have been somewhat reserved about considering St... | |
| I'm thinking about a low watt tube amplifier? I would agree with Roxy. Your speaker may be rated at 97db (I have read knowledgeable reviewers draw attention to the fact that manufacturers do sometimes exaggerate these numbers). The important question is what does the impedance look like? If y... | |
| Moving again...system finally complete...back to starting over Integrated Amplification: Devialet Expert Pro (size of a large laptop) Sound quality is excellent. Will drive pretty much any speaker. Speaker; Thats quite a personal choice, and there are great options that are manageable in terms of weight and... | |
| EverSolo Streamer Thanks Oddiofyl. Great comment! How do you feel the EverSolo DMP-A6 stacks up against the Aurender N200 for sound quality? | |
| EverSolo Streamer I did get a chance to try the EverSolo’s DMP-A6’s own internal DAC. Its decent, but does not drive the music quite as well as a really good DAC. A-B’ing it against my DAC confirmed to me my preference to continuing with my outboard DAC. The sound ... | |
| EverSolo Streamer Hi Lalitk, no I never thought they were a waste of money. I did think that some are a bit overpriced, especially if one has a DAC already. My delay was limited financial options. This streamer is affordable. I have been very tempted by the Blusoun... |
