| LFD NCSE MK3 I purchased the MKI when it was still selling at introductory pricing of $6k gently used at $4500 shortly after it first went into production.Regardless of price, it's the only audio purchase I've ever made that was happily ever after. I have had... | |
| Seeking a Tidal full MQA streaming DAC The Lumin is the obvious choice I'm super happy with my Teac NT-505 but it seems that some on this board have had issues so I would only recommend purchasing with strong dealer support.The Lumin app is ok but you may want to trial Roon as it's qui... | |
| Roon vs the world (streaming software) I'm surprised no one has given Roon a run for their money as an app based one time purchase for reasonable money would be a big deal I think. I went from Bluesound OS which is great and I thought even better than Sonos to running the Lumin app wi... | |
| Teac NT505 firmware update v1.22 You might want to try a different USB to micro USB cable I have had a lot of issues with various devices not liking one cable or another. | |
| Teac NT505 firmware update v1.22 I put 1.22 on mine as soon as I received my unit and it worked perfectly.Can't recall the exact process but the unit was connected to the PC with a USB->micro USB cable to do the update. | |
| Best phone/personal listening device under $500 Definitely look at the lightning to USB->Dragonfly red or Cobalt it's a setup that doesn't add a ton of bulk. The Onkyo HF player allows you to play FLAC files which is what made me go in that direction with an iPhone awhile back. Not mind bl... | |
| Will Lyra Delos get Lambda upgrade? If so they should be able to do rebuilds to the Lambda spec. I've been waiting a few years now so waiting a bit longer makes sense if it's coming down the pipe. | |
| Node 2i use with external DAC Haven't heard the Gungnir but the Yggdrasil is definitely a big step up in performance from a Node 2i on its own.The thing with the Yggy IMHO is that it's looking for balanced in and out to perform it's best so although the Node 2i works great the... | |
| Most valuable LP Tom Petty Wildflowers - I remember going into this record shop a bunch of times and being too cheap to pony up the $40 or whatever they were asking for it at the time. Finally grabbed it months later still one of my all time favourite albums and ... | |
| TEAC NT-505 impossible connecting to WiFi router o such LAN: help me please? Seems like Teac has some QC issues they need to address or else someone is selling returns without testing the units properly.My NT-505 was a sealed unit bought in Canada, sounds wonderful no issues whatsoever with all the latest software/firmware... | |
| New Zirconia Pipe Cantilever .. What's up with that ? If you kind of love your turntable, get her a cubic zirconia lol! | |
| Sonos Amp Looks like the 6T are 90db efficient so you should be fine with the Sonos amp and although they are 4 ohms it sounds like Sonos are saying work with them no problem.You'll likely be surprised at how well it does but I'm sure you can easily buy wit... | |
| Sonos Amp What speakers? I can tell you that the Sonos amp sounds pretty good and way better than the Connect Amp which was a bit mushy sounding in comparison.If the speakers are reasonably efficient you're good if they're power hungry you might want to go... | |
| Good sounding wired earbuds - affordable? Haven't heard them but the Beyer Soul Byrds seem to be getting good feedback for reasonably priced earbuds.I recently bought a pair of Shure SE425 which are more in ear than earbuds they are very good but bass is only good if you get a really good... | |
| Node 2i performance suggestions pls "@audiojedi , I'm using CAT6. Would CAT8 be a noticable upgrade? Thanks"I actually went from CAT6 to CAT7 and didn't notice much if any difference - went to CAT8 for fun because it was cheap and there was a more noticeably fleshed out sound to be... |
