| can i get a significant dac upgrade over my Lumin d2 for 2k? @sgreg1 Music first, system second, agreed and understood. However it would be nice if you post your system. It always makes it easier to understand why a member may think certain ways about anything audiophile they comment on. I try to be as tr... | |
| can i get a significant dac upgrade over my Lumin d2 for 2k? Good for you Greg. It's likely to be a great sounding dac for you. But this R2R craze brings me to the following thoughts: Why would anyone who is so in love with analog sound would want to find it in digital? Point being analog will always soun... | |
| can i get a significant dac upgrade over my Lumin d2 for 2k? Gustard now doing the R2R thing because it is the talked about thing for analogue lovers. Smart of them. However the X26 pro is an absolutely thing of beauty sound wise, better than the Aries 2 I owned. | |
| can i get a significant dac upgrade over my Lumin d2 for 2k? Bluesound NODE with Teddy Pardo LPS to Gustard X26 PRO via DH Labs silversonic USB connection. Sweet! | |
| Best budget USB Using DH Labs USB cable between NODE and Gustard X26 PRO. Reasonable at $105 for 1.5 meter, sounds excellent but cover sleeve could be better, pulling away from USB plug on one end. No biggie. | |
| Did you notice.... Thanks Doug. Fellow Texan I see. Some beautiful hand made equipment in your system. I'm around Austin. | |
| Streamer Upgrade I use USB between the Bluesound and Gustard and have similar blackness as my CD player. I would never use any other connection as USB is the only one I know that allows the clock of the dac to be used rather than the clock in the streamer. And my ... | |
| Streamer Upgrade The first of my two posts. | |
| Streamer Upgrade @curiousjim I paid $515 for the NODE, $545 for the Pardo and yet plenty worth it. Look at my post in the Did you notice discussion. It will tell you plenty. | |
| Did you notice.... @dougthebiker Intrigued by the Uptown Audio switch but turned off by how hot it runs. Can't be good for long term. How long have you had it? Your thoughts? | |
| Did you notice.... Just listened to JJ Cale Guitar man both on my CD player and streamer, same resolution, using remotes. If anything, the streamer is a bit bigger wider sound and even a tat clearer. You can check my setups on my system. Bottom line the OP is defini... | |
| Streamer Upgrade @curiousjim Info given on this site as any other needs to be taken with a grain of salt. The OP says that the Teddy Pardo LPS would be a good recommendation for the Bluesound specifically if you use its internal dac. Well, I got the absolute opp... | |
| New Project RS2T transport Never tried a RS2T but I have the Jay's cd2 mk3 since January and it sounds absolutely fantastic and has caused me zero issues. | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? Yes, at first I did the same thing, running around to disconnect the router for 5 minutes, and the extender and the bluesound, as was recommended and it was a waste of time and really didn't even work. Uninstall and reinstall app can be done in a ... | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? BTW, using the DAC in the bluesound renders the Teddy Pardo LPS useless. At least that's what I've been told. I am using the Gustard x26 pro DAC instead. |
