| Streamer vs. new mac mini for 2 channel system I have relegated my Synology and QNAP nas boxes to backup duty. Roon running on a Roon Nuc with ssd's now and a complete copy in Dropbox (although I'm teetering at the 2tb Dropbox limit and last I looked the next size up was a lot more per month ... | |
| What speaker do you passionately want to demo? I really want to hear ProAc K6's but I think there might be only one shop in the country that has them.Next week I'm going to the local shop to hear Magico A5's and Rockport Atria II. And I should have a demo pair of Kudos 808's arriving before t... | |
| Streamer vs. new mac mini for 2 channel system In his post, the OP wishes to access URL’s that are not available on dedicated streamers - such as Soundcloud. Yet, seeking to improve the SQ as much as possible - within those parameters. For me the trade-off would probably have me use AirPlay or... | |
| Streamer vs. new mac mini for 2 channel system 10 years ago the Mac Mini was pretty much THE go-to solution for so many of us.Today I am happy owning a dedicated streamer. It does want to do its firmware updates from time to time, but that's it. It's built-for-purpose and I don't have to deal ... | |

| Cartridge (other than Rega) with Rega RP10 Has anyone put a Lyra on the P10? I'm thinking about a P10, but with something better than Apheta3 and know people who love Lyra. (Is it a given that the arm would need a shim installed? I think so but not 100% sure.) | |
| Devore Nines and amp match I totally disagree about Nines "needing a lot of current."I owned Nines for many years and used them with a Naim Nait XS2 integrated amp. Definitely not a producer of "a lot of current" and I loved the pairing. | |
| Have you ever wondered why speaker manufactures do not consign speakers to dealers? My go-to dealer is 1500 miles from my home. I recently was interested in some $12,000 speakers he sells and he shipped them to my home. My only obligation was to pay for shipping if I didn't buy them. I ended up not buying and it cost me a few h... | |
| Music Server/DAC in Same Box What is your budget? | |
| Naim Dac or power supply? Someone wrote:"Well it looks like you got me. I don't know how I am going to explain my way out of this one. Let me ask you, though, why would I go out of my way to make something like that up? Unless, of course, I have another motive like trying ... | |
| Do I need a DAC for iPod? There are a lot of options, varying widely in cost, and these have been posted already. My question for you -- what format is the music in? 128kbps AAC files purchased from iTunes? Similarly lossy mp3's? Or Apple Lossless that youve ripped yoursel... |
