| Auralic Aries Mini not connecting... No, still have it. I figured out what the problem was. I was using a AQ Jitterbug on the USB and that caused it crash. Once I removed it, it has been very stable and works just fine. | |
| Solid state DAC under 12K retail preferably with ethernet PS Audio DirectStream with Bridge II. I know it's quite a bit less than your max budget, but honestly, it's that good. | |
| Auralic Aries Mini not connecting... I finally got the darn thing to connect wired. Reset the entire network, but got it to work. The Auralic Lightening App is a real piece of sh*t though... keeps crashing and losing the connection despite the router being in the next room and full s... | |
| Auralic Aries Mini not connecting... Yes, but when I chose wired, it disconnects completely and then defaults back to wireless within 10 minutes. | |
| Thiel Owners I heard a pair of TT1 the other days I'm really underwhelmed... Even compared to my CS2.4's, they're falling flat. Just lifeless and boring, not "the window into the recording" I'm spoiled with from the traditional Thiel's. If I can find a pair of... | |
| 9 year old Parasound Jc 1s or new Bel Canto 1000m monos? Seems like I may be one of the few that actually likes Bel Canto in this thread… I've auditioned the JC1's at home and right afterwards had a pair of 1000M and quite frankly, I preferred the REF1000M's. There's simply NO sonic signature at all to ... | |
| Balanced preamp with HT bypass Oh, the HT bypass doesn't need to be balanced (but it could be, just not a requirement) | |
| Multichannel amp... Long story short, I ended up replacing the Onkyo with a Marantz AV8801 and to gain the front wide (which I'm surprised the huge difference that made!!!) I ended up buying a Anthem PVA7. What an amazing setup this is! The AV8801 is really a great p... | |
| how much did you spend on rear surround speakers? I have a full Thiel speaker set up, so that doesn't come cheap, no matter how much I "bargin hunt" My Thiel PowerPoint rears were $1200, which is probably more than what I should've spent, but sounds amazing and the sound is completely coherent a... | |
| Multichannel amp... Ok, so it's obviously that I wasn't very clear. :-(I'm planning to keep my ML331 for L/R, and add a multi channel amp for all other channels. It would need to be at least 5 channels though (my current set up is 7.2), but a 7-ch would be even bette... | |
| Need advice for HT LCR and HT Processor Upgrade Ouch completely missed that quite important detail.You're right, you're not going to get everything for $3k, but I think you might be able to get a pair of CS2.3's with a MCS1 for that if you look around. | |
| Amp for Vandersteens 2ce sig 2's I've heard the 2CE Sig's with Cary tube amps numerous times and the combination is darn near magical. | |
| Need advice for HT LCR and HT Processor Upgrade I would highly recommend getting a set of Thiel front ends. Either 3 MCS1's (which is what I use for my fronts/center) or a MCS1 for the center and a pair of CS2.4's (or CS2.7's if you're looking new, but the 2.4's are just an amazing value when f... | |
| Thiel CS6 As for center channel, there's really nothing better than a Thiel MCS1 to pair with you CS6's | |
| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners Mark Levinson amps works really well with Thiel's. My ML334 and my CS2.4's can really sound magical. I've heard that amp on a pair of 3.7's as well and amazing doesn't even start of cut it...Other amp that I've heard with 3.7's were a pair of McIn... |
