| DAC with AirTunes? Thanks for the input Edsilva,Maybe you didn't read my post correctly. I realize the Nano does not have a direct digital out or bluetooth. I was referring to a *dock* that would have this. Similar to this dock:http://www.griffintechnology.com/produ... | |
| DAC with AirTunes? Thanks again Jayboard.After thinking this out more, I think you're right. I'm cutting corners with the Squeezebox. A laptop w/iTunes is a much better option than the little diplay. Maybe down the road I can find a bluetooth dock w/digital out that... | |
| DAC with AirTunes? Thanks Jayboard.I've been reading a lot of past posts and am still looking at my options. The AVR300 will let me use stero direct if I connect via analog but not digital so that's one reason I'd like an analog connection. The other reason is can a... | |
| DAC with AirTunes? OK, I'm thinking of scrapping my AirTunes for a Squeezebox. Has anyone used this device with good results? How are it's DACs? It seems to have all of the connections and features I need all in one package. Does it work well with Macs? | |
| DAC with AirTunes? Sorry, I want to clarify here that I'm concerned about possibly improving my two-channel stereo listening by adding an external DAC. The AVR300 has two digital inputs and I'll still be using one(and the AVR300 DACs) for 5.1 listening. | |
| Need CD interconnect advice. Thanks for the advice everyone.I'll look into all of the suggestions and am open to more. On the Goertz Alpha-Core, which model for the money is best? I realize my setup isn't ultra high end but I do want to get the best/most cable for my purposes... | |
| Best HDMI Cable for Video I got my HDMI cable from bluejeanscable.com. I needed a longer run (12 ft) for my DVR/cable box and didn't want to spend a fortune. Should I splurge a little more for the bettercables cable or something more? Would the difference, if any, be signi... | |
| Sony 777ES digital or analog best for audio? Thanks for the input everyone.So basically, I'm using the AVR300 DACs when using the D-60/DVD input and I'd be using the 777ES DACs if I connect via analog out/CD input? The Arcam won't force either connection to default to it's internal DACs?I've... | |
| Sony 777ES digital or analog best for audio? Well, my Kimber Silver Streak cables are only .5 meter and I'm going to have to do some major equipment adjusting to test them. I was actually going to get another 1 meter pair of analog cables just to A/B them. Should I stick with Silver Streak o... | |
| Speaker spikes OR Rubber feet ? What about 4 Vibrapod Isolators under each speaker? My KEF Reference Twos are on a tile ledge and I've been wondering if adding 4 Isolators under each speaker will improve the sound? | |
| Sand filled speakers please help I thought about putting sand or shot in my KEF Reference Two plinths but am wondering if it's worth the hassle? They are dead solid, basically no vibration even at very load levels. Since they may not vibrate as much as other speakers, will loadin... | |
| Arcam AVR300 w/Legacy Focus 20/20's? Thanks for the response.I'm now actually thinking the Sig III's are the way to go. Also, I could bi-amp the Sig III's with the AVR300's two extra channels (multi-zone). My room is 21' D x 16' W with 12' ceilings. The Arcam can drive 4 ohm loads ju... | |
| Decent reciever on a budget? For under $2K, I'd say the main ones to look into are the Arcam AVR300, B&K 305/307 or the Rotel (can't remember model #). I'm very happy with my Arcam AVR300. It works very well for two channel music as well as HT. I got mine used here on Aud... | |
| Mixing in sub with Swan M200's? The M200's only have one composite input (no speaker-level) and my main question is what would be the best way to mix (connect) a sub in with them?http://tinyurl.com/a4thoThe speaker posts pictured feed the other speaker. You would need to input i... | |
| Toslink or coax? Thanks again for the input Albert,You're right, I want to keep my cables in line with the rest of my equipment. That's my main goal here. Again, I believe in using quality cables but I don't want to get out of hand $$wise. I'm wondering if I shoul... |
