| best streamer for Amazon Music HD @harnserb I had that problem a while ago but not recently. Never confirmed but I thought it might have been because I was streaming Amazon music simultaneously from the amazon app on my computer and on the node to my system (different music, not ... | |
| Choosing a cartridge for new turntable Yes, I think you're right, I'd probably like either one. But going with Soundsmith based on how you describe it and it being more similar to Shure is a good rationale. Especially since I'll probably be anxious with new turntable and all, will ju... | |
| Choosing a cartridge for new turntable @big_greg That's the kind of comparison I was looking for thanks. Interesting I was leaning towards either the Hana or Soundsmith based on reviews. Think I'll focus further research on Soundsmith, seems to suit my tastes. Any downsides to the S... | |
| Choosing a cartridge for new turntable I have a Lehmann Audio Black Cube SE | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Focal 1038 I have these speakers paired with a Raven audio nighthawk and love it. Think these speakers go well with tube amps | |
| Sopra 2 Bass I'm pretty new to this too, one thing I learned is to be patient and give things time to settle (ears and gear). I got the Focal 1038's and initially thought they were weak on bass so got a Schitt Loki to boost it while contemplating subwoofers. ... | |
| best streamer for Amazon Music HD I got an arylic S50 streamer/preamp for my garage system and think it's great. Almost like the app better than bluesound. One thing is it only outputs CD quality, no hi-res, but for my garage application with all vintage gear it's fine. Haven't... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk I've had the Raven Nighthawk for almost a year and love it. Playing with preamp tubes made a difference. Goes well with my focal speakers. | |
| Can someone tell me what wrong I had a similar problem with my tube amp. After giving manufacturer a hard time about it turned out my outlet wasn't grounded and way amp was designed the ground is important. Wasn't a problem with previous amp because it was vintage and two pro... | |
| best streamer for Amazon Music HD There's also the Arylic Audio S50 for $200 that streams amazon music. Has digital outs. Supposedly the app is similar to bluesound. Have never tried but has decent reviews. | |
| best streamer for Amazon Music HD I ended up getting the bluesound node 2i, so can't help much with HEOS. If your receiver has bluetooth with aptx-hd and your phone also does, can see how that sounds. I use it when I just want background music because the bluesound app isn't as ... | |
| Good Stereo Speakers for outside use during BBQs, evening pot luck dinners etc Klipsch AW-650 outdoor speakersI have them, they're great. Been under an eave for years, no issues. Powered by a vintage Pioneer amp from my living room with similarly long cable run. 95db sensitivity so easy to drive. | |
| A warm DAC? What DAC do you have now? I have the same speakers and a Raven integrated tube amp. Had a topping DAC (delta sigma) that was good but found the top end a bit bright, and sound slightly dry/clinical. Initially thought about upgrading to a DAC w/ ... | |
| Affordable US Made Tube Pre/Power or Integrated Options I also recommend Raven Audio Nighthawk integrated. And they have a 45-day trial, can return if you don't like it, minus return shipping. I got one after listening to Primaluna and Rogue at dealers. All sounded good, just each have different cha... | |
| best streamer for Amazon Music HD That's great amosm. Are you happy with the functionality of Amazon on BluOS? How does it work with playlists? Can you add songs to Amazon playlists? Or do you create a playlist on BluOS? I already have a lot of playlists and songs added on Am... |
