| Pass Labs Mono Block Question Bi-wire or run shorter sp cables and use the terminals closest to the speaker. | |
| A great interconnect between Soulution 751 and 725 Nordost then. Tyr 2 or higher. | |

| Another post about a streamer upgrade @mdalton no. The steamer is what is connected to the DAC. The Mac Mini in my example is just a Roon core that sends the data feed to the streamer, via network. The streamer is connected to the DAC. For the mac mini to be considered a streamer it w... | |
| DAC upgrade Chord Qutest is s very safe recommendation. Check out US Audiomart. Pick up a used one, save couple of bucks. | |
| USB to Dual Coax Bridge for Qutest DAC 👍 | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade @mdalton I was using mac mini as roon core only. Not a streamer. The comparison was done using auralic with lightning ds vs Auralic as roon end point. There’s no jitter. Just different way of processing the stream by the Auralic. | |
| Good measuring DACs vs. I find the Stereophile review of DAC 3 HGC, to put it gently, weird. The reviewer was comparing it to PS Audio DSD by having PS Audio DSD connected to the Benchmark analog in, and stated he heard no difference between the two DACs. Well no 💩!!! I... | |
| Contemporary Classical Composers - new discoveries Sorabji Piano Music album is excellent! Thank you!!! | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade @mdalton yes nothing beats roon from the UI / UX and features standpoints. However, one important note - with some streamers their proprietary UI/software forces the streamed files to take a certain path that involves extra processing such as cach... | |
| USB to Dual Coax Bridge for Qutest DAC @drlou77 any update? | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade @benanders I’m totally cool with your stance on this. Let’s not highjack this thread. Enjoy the music! | |
| Another post about a streamer upgrade Again, I’m not saying more expensive streamers can’t be better-sounding. I’m just saying I have never been able to understand the logic for how they offer higher fidelity, in the absence of demonstrated perceptible difference (accounts of satisfi... | |
| Lumin U2 or Aurender N200 I will add that the Lumin native app just sucks. Of you use Roon, you’re good. The Aurender as you probably know is not roon ready but the Conductor app is very good overall and presents not much of learning curve. I was up and running in minutes. | |
| Lumin U2 or Aurender N200 @mm1tt77 I used Auralic Aries G1, Lumin U1 Mini and the built in network renderer in my dac. The Aurender N200, sonically, is in another league. I will make a safe assumption that even with Sbooster the lumin mini won’t reach close to the N200. I ... |
