| Cartridge setup experts: Azimuth critique I have never been this close to my stylus! It seems tilted to the left a bit. Like others say, enjoy the music, but if you can't let it go, get an azimuth meter so you can get some sleep. | |
| Recommendations for good sounding streamer Another vote for the Node N130. The iFi Zen caused me nothing but headaches with my android phone, hard wired or not. | |
| Streamer matching to system I guess Jerry didn't see the 3k budget. | |
| Streamer matching to system @matt_mccloat Lol. I just get lazy about repeating myself over and over about my setup. Here it is simplified, from wifi to Dac : - TP Link extender - Bluejeans/ Belden ethernet cable - Smallgreen optical isolation bundle to cleanup ethernet ... | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll Class A up North, class D down South. No brainer. | |
| Streamer matching to system @matt_mccloat If you check out my system, you will see what I did to upgrade my Node. I have now zero need to spend more on a streamer. The Node set up the way it is is at least as good as my vinyl and CD rigs. In fact the streaming has even a w... | |
| Hi-end audio is a big zero +1 @ acoustically treated room. Finished building mine end of 2019. My music experience has evolved 10 fold ever since. However it is a tough sale for a lot of audiophiles, specially married ones, since they have to be worried about messing up th... | |
| Cary Audio SLP-5 Preamp That was referring to the loop outputs. | |
| Advice? Less than $4k, solid state preamp, neutral to gentle $3750 new | |
| Advice? Less than $4k, solid state preamp, neutral to gentle Correction, their dac is the anniversary, the preamp I have is the STP-SE stage 2, great connectivity too. | |
| Advice? Less than $4k, solid state preamp, neutral to gentle I would keep an eye out on the anniversary wyred4sound preamp. I have the standard one and it's pretty much the sound you are describing. | |
| Cary Audio SLP-5 Preamp @avanti1960 I also have the 21+. Did you have subs connected to it? Reason I ask is when reducing gain on it, the lower frequencies don't diminish as much as the other frequencies. Which I like as it gives me an additional way to tune the sound.... | |
| LS50 + Sub Or Floorstander? If money allows it, towers with subs can't be beat imo. I got very big PBN MONTANA XPS speakers with dual 10" woofers and I still would not part with my dual Rythmick F12 subs. It's not that these large towers don"t have enough bass, it's more how... | |
| Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers +1 @hilde45 I had a pair of Ascend Acoustic Sierra towers with raal tweeters too, for like 7 years. They were absolutely wonderful, wide clear sound, not tiring, with amazing bass for their size. I just moved to larger speakers to get a more imm... | |
| Only two tracks to test your system, forever! @gjohns Not everyday someone is in tune with my musical choices. I am pretty much off mainstream and on the fringe with most of my music so it comes as a nice surprise I am not alone :) Thanks Greg. |
