| Adding a preamp to HT setup When I decided to make the same move you're considering, I ended up with a Modwright LS 100. You can find them second hand around your budget. I couldn't be happier. | |
| Streaming Qubuz - take it to the next level. There was a similar thread not too long ago, I think Oz started it. The Lumin is a nice upgrade from the Bluesound. I recently replaced mine with a TEAC NT-505 which was also a nice upgrade from my Node 2. I was using my Auralic Vega DAC, which... | |
| What do I need to start Streaming Music thru my Audio System The Node 2i has a better DAC than what? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw I may try one of your mats at some point, but for now I'm tweaking other things. At some point I'll probably be interested in something different than the big rubber mat on my JVC QL-Y66F. | |

| What are you streaming tonight? Mazzy Star playlist on Qobuz. This is one of those artists that I never really gave much of a chance for whatever reason, but man... they're good! | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thin Lizzy - Johnny The Fox | |
| New Santana Album "Africa Speaks" Uber, I didn't mean to single you out, that was intended as a plural "you" when I said if that's what you listen for, that's what you'll hear. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Van Halen - Fair Warning | |
| New Santana Album "Africa Speaks" Uber, I don't disagree that it sounds compressed. Perhaps my point was that if that's all you listen for, that's all you'll hear. I can also see how it's not for everybody, but to those that said it "sucks", that's a bit of a head scratcher. | |
| New Santana Album "Africa Speaks" When I first saw this thread it reminded me that I hadn't heard any Santana in a while and I listened to a couple of his older albums.As far as this album, I didn't sit down and listen to this in a "critical" way, I just let it play and I have to ... |
