| A stupid question(s) about power cords Think of it this way…whatever Clapton or any other musician was going thru or dealing with at the time the recording was made makes that recording unique. It gives it that special vibe. That’s something we should probably embrace when listening an... | |
| So, a reviewer just said something I need to talk about. The job of a reviewer is to review how a particular piece of kit reproduces instruments using their reference recordings. Some reviewers will focus simply on that aspect of music reproduction looking for accuracy and resolution. Others will mentio... | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? OP joined 6/10/2024 and that’s when this was posted. All follow up questions went unanswered. Perhaps a bot? Are they getting this much better? hey @juanitro like in a Discover commercial…prove that you’re not a robot… | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? I tried so many songs, with the A8 reading highest quality stream on Tidal, and I switched back and forth between the two with practically no difference in same songs. and this switching back and forth, was it done from a listening chair or wer... | |
| Ethernet cables Good decision. I think the Supra and LinkUp will be close. I tried Supra in both the regular original termination and the one upgraded with telegartner connectors. And both performed well. | |
| Ethernet cables @lovehifi22 I have mine plugged into EERO access point. Then Purist Audio Cat7 from Silencer into Aurender N200. I’ll be honest I could barely hear any difference with and without the iFi unit in the chain. Tried it into the Aurender as well. I fi... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @mrdecibel will keep it on the fridge as long as my patience (not my virtue) permits I’ll report back | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @immatthewj Lay Down Sally….it’s just spinning in my head and I can’t get rid of it. Btw when I listened to my FLAC CD rip I compared it to Qobuz 24bit version. I much prefer the rip. Even through the Qobuz hi-res version sounds a bit bigger in t... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords Beer tastes a bit crisper with this power cord on the fridge. Who would have thought!!! Just kidding. It is on the fridge and cooking. I’ll throw it back into the system Tuesday/Wednesday | |
| An Amp Nobody Talks About, Bricasti Design Had their M3 DAC and the build, feature set and sonics are top notch. Was eying the M25 for my Wilson Sabrina speakers but can’t part with my Pass mono amps yet. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending a Bricasti DAC to go with your amp. Enjoy!!! | |
| Aurender Conductor V4 and Qobuz phone app don't match Best thing to do is contact aurender support. They’ll take care of it. Email support@aurender.com | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @jea48 yes it’s a guesstimate based on my experience with power cords. Except for a Furutech 55n with FI-60 NCF plugs that took over 600hrs (I lost count) on Pass amp to stabilize, all other cables no matter where they were placed took 200-300 top... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords No spinning discs required. Just keep the player on. Or connect a laptop (or iPad) to it and stream YouTube playlists or Qobuz, Tidal whatever via usb while not listening to CDs. SA-10 has a USB input and is pretty decent used as a DAC. If it goes... | |
| A stupid question(s) about power cords @immatthewj the SA-10 power consumption is 50w. If you leave the player on 24/7 it will be sufficient to break in that power cable within about 200-300hrs. I have it on my streamer and if you recall I stated the sound was very good initially then ... | |
| Ethernet cables You have a wall plate and from there you connect to streamer…is that right? Here’s something to try then… iFi LAN iSilencer to the wall plate, then a short run of a good Ethernet cable from the iFi to your streamer. Pick whatever Ethernet cable ... |
