Living in Japan. Any opinions on amplifiers?
The land of Kondo, Shindo, Allnic, Airtight and Wavac: SETs are Japan’s speciality and with high efficiency speakers still in a league of their own. If nothing else, worth exploring 
Has anyone used A Bluesound Node 2i with an Innuos Zenith XXL MKii????
Get rid of the Bluesound and stream through the Innuos. With my.innuos.com it‘s very straightforward to set up. You need to connect the Innuos to your router via ethernet.

Innuos: A Cautionary Tale.
I compared the Nucleus+ and Zenith Mk3 on Usb via Intona isolator and cables connected to an Antelope Zodiac Platinum with 10M clock. As I said, it wasn‘t even close regarding localisation of individual instruments on the soundstage, solo piano re...
