| Solo streamer +1 oddiofyl RV…N200 is optimized for USB. I tried coax and it sounded good. But USB sounded even better. I would encourage you to try. Use the included USB cable. As I mentioned, it’s decent. | |
| Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Thanks! I read your review of Bricasti M3 that’s why I asked. Sounds like LTA is a killer DAC. I’m actually on a hunt for a new DAC but the incompatibility with DSD is a let down. | |
| Where Do I Go from Here? J…Looking at your system, very nice! changing the main speakers might have a domino effect resulting in changing the Center to match the mains and then the subs. So…to justify the upgrade (forget money for a second) can you articulate issues ... | |
| Solo streamer rv… Conductor 4 is good. Takes a few days to get used to it just use iPad for best experience. The sound will mellow out with break in. The stock included USB cable is actually pretty good. I used it for few weeks before I got my AQ Diamond E... | |
| DIY Nordost banana speaker cable replacement? Wouldn’t Nordost re-terminate those? Or sell you the 🍌 plug at least? | |
| Review on Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Hey Terry…would you care to share your thoughts on how the LTA compares to Bricasti, considering both use AD chips? Thanks! | |
| Solo streamer I streamed some music from YouTube to N200 via AirPlay and didn’t find it terrible. May be my expectations were low. It’s definitely inferior to Qobuz though. I would suggest to give the N200 couple of weeks of non-stop streaming and then re-eval... | |
| Solo streamer rvpiano… not familiar with Idagio app, but…wouldn’t Qobuz have at least most of what’s available there? | |
| Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) OP…in atereophile review it is mentioned that upsampling results in artificial flavor in the treble. So you are most likely on the right track with the DAC being a suspect as well. The Allnic's Upsample function wasn't as impressive. On the f... | |
| Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) OP - I have tried TWL Seven Plus power cord and TWL speaker cables. Although I didn’t pair these, the power cord emphasizes the highs when used on the amp in my system. Didn’t cause fatigue just caused a bit of brightness. It didn’t last long in m... | |
| Audience SX2/Front Row Cables...has anyone tried or heard much of this new reference line? Jafant… Tyr 2 XLR interconnects, Frey 2 power cords on amp and dac, Heimdall 2 power cord is on Aurender N200 streamer. Audience FrontRow speaker cables. I just sold my Pass Labs separates few days ago. Simplifying my setup - moving to an integra... | |
| Aftermarket fuse to tame a bright system? OP…I think by now it’s clear that fuses will not solve your bright system issues. I also don’t think that breaking these cables in will completely eliminate this brightness. Few things to resolve this - 1. All silver cables not a great idea. Tr... | |
| Cable for Mcintosh MA8950 and Monitor Audio PL200 II 👍 | |
| Audience SX2/Front Row Cables...has anyone tried or heard much of this new reference line? Yup. Unbelievably awesome!!!! By far the best my system ever sounded. They managed to improve on already excellent AU24SX with better resolution, more focus and texture, while retaining that natural tone Audience is known for. And to add, there’s ... | |
| Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) There are many reasons why you can be experiencing fatigue. The DAC to amp/preamp matching where there’s sn impedance mismatch, interconnects from dac to pre or amp (I’ve experienced fatigue with few cables until I found what matched perfectly), D... |
