| What is an acceptable level of transformer hum on a Krell S300i? Are you using RCA inputs or XLR inputs into your Krell? If using RCA , then “shorting pins” may be required on the XLR inputs. I had this happen to me on an old KAV250a amp. I was getting a terrible hum until jumpers were installed. I remember ema... | |

| price of Oppo players threw the roof I think it was about March or April. | |
| Oppo UDP-205 MQA Confusion Has anybody heard anything new about this so called “final release “? I really would like to get my hands on one. I signed up to Oppos mailing list about this some months ago but haven’t heard anything. | |
| Krell Showcase 7 Pre Pro Configure Problems Yes, my whole intent going in was to use this as a audio only component. I knew the video part of the Showcase was outdated. That`s probably why I skipped over the video portion of the included printed manual. Luckily my display had a composite co... | |
| Krell Showcase 7 Pre Pro Configure Problems Thank you Aux for responding. The mistake I was making all along was misinterpreting what OSD meant. I was under the impression that OSD meant the screen on the unit itself. The seller did tell me it had to be configured via the OSD. My bad. I ema... | |
| Changes that made a difference (in order of effect). Biggest improvement in my system was swapping out an old B&K PT5 preamp for a Parasound Halo P5 preamp. Amazing difference, especially at lower volumes.Jeff | |

| Romex and breaker switches "There can be advantages to using 10 gauge wire on a 20A circuit, including reducing voltage drop. It is difficult to work with, and using a pigtail into the outlet does make it easier to terminate."Not only is this a Code Violation, this is a MAJ... | |
| To Roon or not to Roon No, no separate zones. Just my living/listening room. The Tidal appis ok, obviously the Roon app is better. Adding a Streamer bringsmore apps. I`m getting app'ed out. Decisions...iMac(Tidal/Roon)/Local hard drive files as a source. Also Oppo BDP-9... | |
| Thoughts on the Essence HDACC II 4K I've owned the HDACC (first version, no 4k) for 2 years now andall I can say is it`s the most versatile , good sounding DAC outthere without getting into crazy money. So many in/outs and the fact that it has HDMI in/out is a huge plus. I run my OP... | |
| When you suddenly realize.... Had Tidal for about 3 months now. Just got Roon yesterday. Absolute paradise. Now as I stare at my CD rack in the corner (about700) ,collecting dust. I put a lot of work and money into that collection and now it seems pointless...Jeff | |
| Oppo UDP-205 MQA Confusion Thank you for responding. I wasn't aware that MQA could be experienced outside of streaming, which is what I do via Tidal Masters and a Dragonfly Red. I do enjoy it very much.Jeff | |
| Oppo UDP-205 MQA Confusion yes, that's what Oppo's Customer Service told me as well.I`m surprised at the lack of discussion about this. BTW, in the April issue of Sound and Vision, there's a very short mention that the 205 isMQA compatible , but there's no mention that it h... |
