Blue Dragon and Moon I know this is an older thread but I feel compelled to share my thoughts about the Blue Dragon PCs. I bought a pair of them earlier this year. I gave them ~45 days or so of run in and they just never seemed to float my boat. I tried one on my D... | |
Lumin Streamers lol... It's ZIDOO, not Vidoo. And there is no F'ing way this thing sounds as good as that (paid shill) leads you to believe. I own a Zidoo unit as well as a Lumin U2. Worlds apart. | |
Roon support or lack thereof, Part 2 I agree with @roxy54. There wasn't much more that Roon could have done here. I mean, a 'lemon' after two issues? They replaced pretty much everything and even extended the warranty. Bravo. If you buy used without a box or toss your OG box, wh... | |
Vibration isolation or absorption? I should add that similar ones are under my 3" maple block turntable isolation platform (in my profile pics). I think I used 12 for under it because that block and the VPI Classic are so damn heavy. I also use 4 under my server. They work kille... | |

Vibration isolation or absorption? I have spikes under all of my floor mounted speakers into a concrete slab subfloor. Under my center channel speaker, I use springs which sit on my central equipment rack. You can find them on Amazon for around $30/set. These bettered other anti-vi... | |
PS Audio Power Plant P3 to P12 I owned a P3 and almost immediately upgraded to the P12. I used the P12 for a few years and I really didn't know why I was never totally thrilled with my system. I made a ton of other changes during that time, so I thought it must have been my new... | |
Fiber to my Etherregen… Sonore OM or generic? @peter_s Yes, buy a fiber optic switch with at least one copper copper port. Attach an LPS to it for less noise generation.I have a few Mikrotik 10G switches and a QNAP 10G switch. The QNAP has 8 copper and 4 fiber ports. Any port can be used as i... | |
Fiber to my Etherregen… Sonore OM or generic? @j_andrews wrote: "What is the benefit of buying a Sonore Optical Module over a TP Link or other consumer level FMC?" Supposedly they induce less noise. But I am uncertain if that noise (or the difference in noise between genetic and oM) is a... | |
PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC I've owned several PS Audio products and never experienced hum with any of them. However, I did experience hum with a Pass Labs XP15 that I had on demo. I tried everything to remedy, including a very long run of RCAs to get it away from everything... | |
Legacy XD series for tube amplifier thoughts I have owned Legacy since the late '90s. A few years ago I was looking for a change in sound. But during the height of Covid, it was nearly impossible to listen to a few contenders that I had picked out because stores were basically abandoned at... | |
FAVORITE POWER CABLE under $100 (1M) I honestly wouldn't waste (any more) money on sub-$100 PC cables. I have many including ones from Maze, AQ, Iceage, Pangea and many unbranded Chinese made PCs. None offer anything more than the stock PCs. Pangea actually sounds worse due to soundi... | |

More Bass @navyachts I am willing to bet his 'audition' was a YouTube video 🤣 | |
