With all the accolades I’m reading about the Harmony with i2s, I am trying to understand why companies like Aurender and Innuos do not offer i2s output.  Are they assuming that if you are spending $6-12k on a Streamer that you will also purchase a...

I'm really hoping LAIV knocks it out of the park with their new Streamer coming Q1 2025.  Opportunity to realized benefits of i2s as well.  
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship
@sns Sorry if I missed it, but did you decide on an i2s cable you like with the Harmony?  
Can't get Bluesound Node to connect to DAC via iFi iPurifier2 ?
@audphile1 Show me a Node with USB Out.

No version of the Node has USB out.

@standardmodel This is how it should be done.  I hope American manufacturers are taking notice.  I’m still miffed about the lack of communication from a certain California/ Texas based company.  I had to return not one, but two of their flagship p...

@standardmodel  Have you received your new Input Board yet?  How did the installation go?

@stuartk  I absolutely find value in discussing a reviewer’s comments.  I have neither the time nor resources to procure multiple samples of a component and audition them in my systems.  I rely heavily on input posted here as well as online revie...

Hans proclaims that he does not like Spikes because they can damage your furniture.  Really?, that is his Audiophile explanation as to why Spikes are bad? He makes no mention as to how may hours are on the unit he tests.  It's been extensively di...

@sim_audio_nerd, "...at par with the Holo May"  Again, high praise!  Awesome. I too am intrigued by their plans for a Streamer as I just can't justify the cost of the current offerings that I am considering.  Hopefully, LAIV will overachieve wit...

@smweber2 Are these HDCDs by chance?  Just thinking out loud.  Thanks for sharing this issue.  Let us know if/when Weng replies with solution. I realize that you and I are probably the last two people listening to CDs on earth, but this issue ma...

@smweber2, Does the blinking occur when playing the same CD/ tracks on both disc spinners, or do different CDs blink randomly on each player?  When intermittent, does the blinking reoccur at the same location on the track when replayed?
