| Glare with Qobuz… @lalitk I can’t really use native Qobuz with my Bricasti DAC. I don’t have a streamer. My options are just Roon or MConnect. Just rebooted all access points. The gateway and the one my Bricasti is hardwired to are really the most critical ones. It... | |
| Glare with Qobuz… Thanks for the album recommendation @jerryg123 will check it out. We had a power outage last week. I bounced my Bricasti DAC but didn’t bother rebooting network components. Something must’ve pooped and never recovered. We’ll see what it is. Re... | |
| Glare with Qobuz… Forgot to mention…this glare is mostly heard on high res albums. Redbook version sounds more or less fine. I’ll start troubleshooting. Rebooted roon core. No difference. | |
| Cheapest but good cables…. Flat speaker cables? Nordost. Interconnects that you can hid under the rug? Balanced BlueJeans. I actually prefer them to Mogami as they’re slightly more laid back and are less harsh. Mogami Studio Gold XLRs were ok but not great in my system wit... | |
| Rogue Preamp RP-1 @stereo5 oh yeah…had RP5 👍 | |
| Rogue Preamp RP-1 RP1 is a nice preamp. I had it paired with Pass X250.5 and with Rogue ST100. Worked good with both amps. As an added bonus a phono stage in it is very decent. @stereo5 RP3? | |
| Luxman 590AX II Break-In You’re shooting a fly with a bazooka. But, congratulations on your upgrade! | |
| Don’t buy used McCormack DNA 1990s amps @soix Didn’t imply that you started the thread to profit. If you read my response and interpreted it as such, you misunderstood my post. | |
| Don’t buy used McCormack DNA 1990s amps @mitch2 that’s my point exactly. This thread is a gross exaggeration of an issue that may or may not happen. Contrary to the possible intent, it does no one any favors. | |
| Don’t buy used McCormack DNA 1990s amps I believe you guys are making assumptions based on facts not in evidence and unfairly casting SMc Audio in a negative light. @mitch2 I respectfully disagree. I think Steve is a brilliant designer and I stated my admiration for his amplifier... | |
| Amp for Focal Electra 1008Be Pass has one of if not the best customer support in the industry. Nothing to worry about there at all. That being said, of your room is not too big, add Pass Int25 to your list. | |
| Don’t buy used McCormack DNA 1990s amps @nymarty I would direct the funds towards a purchase of a new amp and noy have the old DNA modded. @soix looks like you’ve taken on a function of being a proxy for SMc Audio to deliver a message of vested interest. No one can possibly predict ... | |
| Power Cord for PS Audio Power Plant Premier? If the issues you’re describing started with the introduction of PS Audio PP into the system and you have given the PP and the cable more than 200hrs to break in, try to get a baseline using a regular 14awg stock power cord. If that character you’... | |
| Cartridge Alignment Should be easy. If you’re in for a long run, I highly recommend Dr. Feichert new protractor. It’s not exactly cheap but you will use it more than once and that’s for sure! Plus you will save on paying someone to set it up for you. It will pay for ... | |
