| Sennheiser/drop 6xx plus amp? Congratulations on your purchase. The HD6XX are a true steal at this price. Unlike many other cans in this price bracket, these puppies will scale up with higher end equipment. Each time I moved up the headphone amp ladder, the HD6XXs responded in... | |
| Help me pick a stream with DAC Teac NT-505 sounds interesting and I like the price too! Has anyone compared it to Mytek Brooklyn Bridge which is almost 40% more expensive than Teac? Let me do my research on Teac and MiniDSP. In the meantime, please feel free to suggest other al... | |
| Can I use the Tidal app for streaming with node 2 without Bluesound app? Unfortunately, as djones51 mentioned, it is not possible to stream to Node2 directly from Tidal's native app. Same issue with Amazon. If you don't like the BlueOS interface, you can try Roon. It is an additional $10 per month but the features and ... | |
| Help me pick a stream with DAC Sorry about the title ... it should have said 'streamer', not 'stream', lol! | |
| Can I use the Tidal app for streaming with node 2 without Bluesound app? @agosto I don't think you are necessarily required to use the Bluetooth function on the Bluesound controller app on your iPad to listen to Tidal. This is what I did and it works well for me ...In the Bluesound app on your iPad, go to the main menu... | |
| Qobuz Studio Premier subscription available in USA & UK but not in rest of Europe I recently subscribed to Qobuz, still in the free first month period. For some reason, I’m finding the SQ to be better than Tidal. The music is less edgy, a bit more fuller and refined sounding compared to Tidal. Is it just my imagination, or are ... | |
| How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present My comment about the Tektons was supposed to be tongue in cheek. I guess I should have put a smiley face icon since that seems to be a recurring theme on this thread 😛 | |
| How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present Tekton Double Impacts ... something to do with beauty and beholder or something along those lines! | |
| KEF LS50W who has them? @so-al ... I had the same issue and it turned out to be my old router. Got a Nest Wifi and the LS50Ws have been rock solid since then. | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless -- wow!!! I've had mine or two and a half years and they have been rock solid for me. Initially, the connection was a bit temperamental, but I made two changes that made a world of difference. First I got Roon, which is a million times better than KEF's nat... | |
| Good Streamer with WiFi Connectivity If one is only interested in streaming, i.e. no need to connect to NAS services, ripping, local storage, AND already has a decent DAC, what are your options? Bluesound Node 2i is fairly reasonable. Other than that, I just can't seem to convince my... | |
| Headphone amps do sound different Couldn’t agree more .... A few months ago, I was only using my regular two-channel speaker setup for music. I had a pair of Bose headphones, but they never did anything for me. I had almost written headphones off of my list. Around 2-3 months ago ... | |
| Headphone Amp for Focal Utopias? I've never had a chance to audition the Empyrean, but most reviews are very positive. Do post your impressions once you've had a chance to spend some time with them. | |
| Headphone Amp for Focal Utopias? One thing to keep in mind is that Focal sells a ton more headphones than Meze. Consequently, the higher percentage of negative reviews might just be a byproduct of higher sales numbers. The real question is which company has the bigger service foo... | |
| Headphone Amp for Focal Utopias? @yyzsantabarbara Just curious, what made you prefer the Empyrean over Utopia? |
