| USB and Coaxial at the same time? @rvpiano interesting that you prefer coax. Thought you liked that shunyata usb cable | |
| Anyone replace the springs of a Nobsound footer? Why not just buy another set and use more under the sub. Or just use the feet on the sub as they were intended and don’t waste money on these tweaks. I never cared for these anywhere in my system. | |
| Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under? I’m confused is your limit $2k or $3k? I was going to recommend Rogue RP1 under $2k used it’s around $1k. | |
| USB and Coaxial at the same time? Cool. Yeah the 70s rock wasn’t recorded to be played thru an accurate hi fi system | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks We got snowed in last night as well around 4” of snow topped off by freezing rain. Very slippery. I skated around a bit while walking my dog. | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Cool about audience cords. I really like them especially for the amp. Don’t recall if I ever tried XLO…don’t think I did… If you’re handy you can probably upgrade the captive cord in that power strip but I’m not sure it’s worth the effort. You wi... | |
| USB and Coaxial at the same time? @fthompson251 I don’t think there’s a problem having both cables connected and I agree with your assessment of coax sound vs USB. Not familiar with Denafrips but is there a mode or a filter option available that would result in a slightly warmer... | |
| Bluesound Node 2i with Denafrips Ares ii First of all AirPlay is not what you want to use. That won’t give you high res. You should be using BluOS native app and login to Tidal from there. Stream using BluOS and not the Airplay. In tidal settings in BluOS make sure you select Max. That’s... | |
| I find myself "tuning out" anymore.....is the magic fading? incorrigable 58 posts 02-08-2025 at 02:34pm Cannabis is legal in my state so I enjoy some in a stew or pastry with a glass of wine on Friday night and my system sounds lovely. I particularly love watching TV with music on watching ads mu... | |
| levinson 26 to replace adcom 565 I’ll throw in an alternative - sell all your adcom stuff. Pick up a Rogue ST100 amp and RP-1 preamp (has amazing phono built in). The ST100 in triode mode will be excellent. And total amp and preamp would run about $3500 ish. Will beat your adcom... | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks I’ll add - if you have dedicated circuits install good quality outlets and go direct sans conditioner. Especially if it’s a 30 year old glorified power strip. That’s how I run my system - direct no power conditioner. | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks @immatthewj let me simplify this… Scenario 1 - everything is plugged into the conditioner. In this case the besr power cord should be on the conditioner. Second best power cord should be on the amplifier. Go up the chain from there. Scenario 2 - ... | |
| Phono Cables for Sutherland 20/20 mk1? I had 20/20 MkII with LPS and used Acoustic Zen Silver Ref 2 which sounded amazing with it. Should not be an issue with the wider spread on the 20/20 MkI | |
| Strange Cable Experiment Now I’m thinking where else I might be "strangling" my music! power. Get good quality outlets and power cords. Don’t have to be super expensive. | |
| USB and Coaxial at the same time? It might smooth it out. |
