| Qobuz vs Airplay If the Mind can do Qobuz Connect or Tidal Connect give these a try not a bad UI. As to Apple Music Airplay vs Qobuz yes there’s a difference but it may not be important enough for you. Try and see. | |
| Which amp with Wilson watt puppy 8 OP looks like you’re deliberately trying to push the electronics and speakers to their limits. You will end up melting the resistors on the Wilsons in the best case scenario. Is there any logic behind this? What are you trying to accomplish? | |
| T + A streamers. I need help. DSP is what makes the sound quality different. Some streamers have proprietary processing when you stream using a native app. This processing may be partially bypassed when using Roon or Tidal Connect, Qobuz connect or Mconnect/Mcontrol. In addit... | |
| T + A streamers. I need help. Try Roon. All you need is a computer to install Roon core. UI is the best. Downside? You have to compare sound quality of roon vs native app. With some streamers there may be differences in sound quality. Try and see. | |

| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables @jl35 that’s right. | |
| Help please! Something amiss with my digital chain Preamp is key in your setup. | |
| Help please! Something amiss with my digital chain I was wondering the same but I guess he may be able to get away without a preamp with the low power amp…still strange. | |
| Help please! Something amiss with my digital chain Auralic wifi is decent. I doubt using cheap Ethernet cable to hardwire it will make any difference. DAC direct to amp in my experience is not ideal and you’re using the Auralic to control volume? I would add a good preamp. Also make sure everythi... | |
| Which amp with Wilson watt puppy 8 If I’m not mistaken the resistors in Wilson Audio speakers will melt and protect the drivers. But I’m wondering why you are driving your speakers to such high DB levels? These speakers will handle high volume and powerful amps. But once the amp st... | |
| OT: Espresso machines I use Fellow Opus grinder but I don’t do espresso. Happy with it. For espresso one of my friends uses Gaggia for the last 10 + years and the espresso is delicious - I had it many times. For me at home it’s either Cafe Cubano in a Bialetti stoveto... | |
| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables @rankaudio “I've seen this room and I've walked this floor” Leonard Cohen…. I wish you luck buddy. | |
| Brain Farts w/ Roon Nucleus I agree. I just restarted my Roon subscription and the sound quality has definitely improved. Roon UI is the best there is. Aurender Conductor is a close enough second but lacks some key features. One downside with my set up running Roon core on m... | |
| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables I have no idea. Because I didn’t say that. You’re confused pal. | |
| Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables @pcolvin I never used word “faithful”. That’s one. Two - this thread is a clickbait. The OP doesn’t have a set of premium speaker cables that are 1ft too short. He was implying that using premium to connect speakers that use lesser quality int... |
