| Bluesound Node 2 producing distortion and dropouts Are you using wifi or connecting your Node via ethernet/LAN? I had a similar issue where wifi stopped working properly and I was experiencing lots of dropouts especially when playing hi-res music. It turned out that I had installed a Google Nest d... | |
| Holo Red Streamer @nymarty Thanks. I understand that it can do both, but I was kinda hoping to kill two birds with one stone and use both functions simultaneously. A few questions if you don't mind answering ... How are you connecting the Red (while functioning a... | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch This thread is a joke. I’m outta here. | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch @mihorn For the record, I wasn't talking about your speakers in my first comment. I was only talking about the comparison between the Borresen and CSS/Jay speakers. Personally, I feel that judging speakers based on youtube recordings is the most a... | |
| Schiit yggdrasil + Less Is More vs. Denafrips Pontus II I own, and love, the Pontus II residing in my second/home office system. I'm currently comparing it with Gustard R26 and so far I prefer the Pontus. One thing to keep in mind that the Yiggy, at least the original version, does not play DSD or hi... | |
| The New Amati G5 or Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene @jomonhifi Please understand that I'm in no way implying that Sonus Faber is inferior to Joseph Audio by any stretch of the imagination. But for my taste, the Joseph Audio is spot on. It just does everything right. I currently own Perspective2 Gra... | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL @sagur80 Do you find the U 280 musically engaging, immersive in the music experience , non fatiguing ?. Aavik claim their low and mid tiers DACs to be warm , musical with good soundstage. Would you agree given your own experience with the U 280... | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch Is this the Kenjit-lite version of speakers? | |
| The New Amati G5 or Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene I think Joseph’s speakers are as good as any Sonus Faber. They absolutely do not compromise on anything. As they say, different strokes for different folks. I’ve heard the Pearls a couple of times and I will take them over any Sonus Faber any time. | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch I was only comparing the Borresen to CSS by Jay. Sorry didn’t mean to imply anything beyond those two. I’m sure your speakers are world class too. Peace! | |
| Børresen M3 vs. CSS (Jay Iyagi) vs. Wavetouch Let's see ... on the one hand you have a speaker designed by a world class engineer and designer with an impressive pedigree. Someone who is really known for pushing the envelope when it comes to cutting edge technology. On the other hand, you ha... | |
| Holo Red Streamer @nymarty Thank you for validating my understanding. I was kinda hoping that the Red could do both, both oh well! I need to do more research on how much better the streamer only function is compared to cheaper alternatives like Bluesound Node or if... | |
| AAVIK THE BEST KEPT Sereat IN DIGITAL @sagur80 Just to be clear, I own the Aavik U-280 which is basically I-280 and D-280 in a single chassis. I’ve never heard the Aqua La Scala so not sure if I can offer my opinion when it comes to that particular dac. When compared to Denafrips Ter... | |
| Are Harbeth Super HL5 XD right for me? @jdougs First of all congratulations on acquiring a world-class speaker! In my home office, the SHL5+ are also placed roughly 13 inches out from the front wall and they sound pretty damn good. But, of course, these speakers will perform even bette... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @jjss49 and @krelldreams Thank you for a real-world perspective of how these speakers behave in normal-sized rooms. My room is around 20x15 with 12 foot ceilings and fairly well treated. Based on what I'm able to glean from your experiences, I thi... |
