Gustard R26
@soix I have used more extenders in the past than I can count some where better then others. As it turns out I have a very robust mesh wifi setup in my home; Asus RT-AX88U as the main router link to my modem and three RT-AX86U Pro's mesh chained a...

@jjss49 Nah I’d rather not move on, I’ll just hang out here and rattle your cage 😀 One would think you owned Gustard...Just here to discuss the Good the Bad and the Ugly and why one would consider a purchase or pass, again this is an open forum; ... 
Gustard R26
@jjss49 And I am discussing the Gustard r26,most reviews I’ve read state they did not test r26’s streaming capabilies because they don’t stream via lan.In fact I have not encounted much commentary regarding the streaming experince (none on this th... 
Gustard R26
@sgreg1 No offense taken,no worries. What I find odd about your best sound perspective via lan is you stated  "What is hard about plugging in a wifi extender. Run a piece of cat 6 to the R26" Ok... what is the source feeding the wifi extender? A w... 
Gustard R26
@sgreg1 I never knocked on the coax,usb,spdif nor Bluetooth connections or complained about lack of nor their function you are putting words in my mouth. “What more do I want?” A truly wireless streamer makes more sense for me if you are happy wit... 
Gustard R26
I am going to wait for the non streaming R2R Gustard that will surely release in few months after they’ve drained our pockets for the R26. I don’t want to pay for a capability I cannot easily use. I’m sorry but a “streamer” that can only be connec... 
Dark Horse DAC
@audioman58  You stated "The Gustard R2R26  is a very good dac with exceptional Japanese build quality" I was simply pointing out that staement is absolutely incorrect and as you like to sound as if you are the last word perhaps you are but in th...

Best Direction/Product Combo DAC/Streamer
You have the basics of a great streamer set up now,most of what is being suggested are “streamers”but not wireless and pains in neck to use the streamer functionality with awful UI .Assuming  a wirelessly receiving setup is something you require (... 
Looking for a good small subwoofer...
Surprised no one here mentioned the RSL speedwoofer 10 MKII. Best value at $450.00 shipping included I own 2 and is an outstanding value for the price nothing mentioned comes close for the $$$.  
Emotiva or Anthem or Something Else?
@melchionda I hear you loud and clear as I had the same concerns but I can tell you the recent updates have addressed the issues. If you'll notice many of the problems are likely posted 3+ months ago. My unit is as stable as can be in all regards.... 
A good universal remote that works changing inputs on new 8K Anthem MRX and AVR's
@cleeds IKR it should work doing the learning feature (would not work at all before doing the learning protacol). Turning the Anthem 8K on/off and volume in whatever input stage it is currently in is as far as it goes.  
Emotiva or Anthem or Something Else?
@mikelavigne If you don't mind me asking how much did the Trinnov cost ?  
Emotiva or Anthem or Something Else?
@melchionda I recently purchased an Anthem MRK 540 8K...Please hear me out. The Anthem has far exceeded my expectations as I was considering an Onkyo RZ50 etc however I have a 5.2 room that really cannot accept much more so I did not need the add... 
New streamer? N150 vs U2
I’m no expert and have not experienced the N150 or U2 my understanding is they are among the best out there for sure,however… you already a streamer set up to die for  with upgrades you have implemented. I would assume the rest of your chain is t...
