| Questions about Ethernet Cabling @grannyring Thanks for chiming in. It was actually your thread on Eno and Zenith that motivated me to purchase both recently. I do have a couple of questions if you don't mind ... 1. Do you leave the Zenith on all the time (talking about the fron... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling @lalitk Sorry, I made a mistake when describing the setup. I meant to say network switch, not router. So the correct version is ... Media Room In-wall socket >> CAT6 cable >> Network Switch+LPS >> ENO’s ethernet cable >> E... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling @antigrunge2 I appreciate your suggestion. It's just that my experience with another switch in the same price range as the etherregen (I bought EE Switch8) was nothing to write home about. I tried it for almost three week but I wasn't impressed at... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling @tvad - thank you for the suggestions. As I mentioned earlier, I've ordered a cheap switch from Amazon. Once I put it in, the configuration is actually going to look the same as second picture in your post, i.e. with two switches. Let's see how it... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling Thanks for the feedback, folks. @lalitk So the ENO pack that I bought comes with their nice ethernet cables for both ends. The problem is that even the longer cable is too short to reach the in-wall socket. I have ordered a cheap switch from Ama... | |
| What's your dream speaker? First choice ... Harbeth M40.2/ or .3 Second ... Tannoy Kensington GR Third ... QLN Prestige 5 Fourth ... Joseph Audio Perspective 2 | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? @jjss49 The more I read your impressions of the Harbeth M40s, the more I feel that this should be my endgame speaker. By endgame, I don't mean the last speaker but one that you buy once and never sell.This is indeed high praise from someone who's ... | |
| Tube integrated amp recommendations @tomic601 btw, EL-34 is a fantastic imaging tube. +1 on EL-34. I'm currently using a VTL I-85 in my second system. There is definitely something about this type of tube that makes it easier to connect with my music. It is giving me all the de... | |
| Let's make a list: Audio Network "Bridges" without DACs...? If it were my money, these would be my choices: Solid performers under 2k ... -Sonore opticalRendu -Lumin U1 Mini Over 2k... -Innuos Zen MK2 -Innuos Zenith MK3 Over 5k ... -Lumin U1 -Aurender N10 | |
| Innuos Zenith Mk3 or something else? I'm planning to buy an Innuous Zenith MK3 soon and had a few questions. Instead of starting a new thread I thought I might just piggyback on top of this thread. Hope the OP doesn't mind ... 1. Currently, I have a separate Roon core server (SGC i5... | |
| Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 I have put on more hours on the Carrera BEs, and they're definitely improving, especially the midrange and bass. The slight thinness that I heard in the midrange area is pretty much gone now.I also want to mention that the VTL IT-85 driving these ... | |
| Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 @perkri -- I agree with your assessment about the crossover design in the Carrera. I think that’s probably the main ingredient in his secret sauce for building such wonderful speakers. Before reading up on these speakers I had not even heard of th... | |
| Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 @riaa_award_collectors_on_facebook -- congrats on getting the Qualiton a50i. I bought one a few months ago and it is by far the best I've owned. I've never owned the megabuck amps but for anything under $10k, the a50i's are phenomenal. I thought a... | |
| Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 @tvad -- you ask a great question. I agree that making an emotional connection is a much better yardstick for measuring long term satisfaction. In the past I've owned speakers that thrilled me during the first few weeks but I got bored after a whi... | |
| Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 Hey guys, I really appreciate the positive feedback. @hilde45 -- thanks for providing the link to your video. I must say the content and production value is better than many regular youtube reviewers. It's good to know that your impressions were s... |
