| Yet another Qobuz vs. Tidal debate I'm trying Qobuz. I too like the SQ over Tidal, but on my home computer it's not letting me utilize my external speakers. And it tends to drop music when in the car. Sounds great on my home set up though If you're using the web player make sure... | |
| Tuner calibration North West coast. Glen,I get pretty good reception on my FM tuner from KNKX where I live in Olympia, but I think if you stream from their web site the quality is also very good. | |
| Why buy Bluesound Node2i vs. Marantz AVR for playing music from NAS or streaming services? The Bluesound will give you a lot more options for streaming - Qobuz, Tidal, Radio Paradise, and much more. Connecting to an external DAC will improve sound quality, but the DAC in the Bluesound is quite good for the price.You should notice a dif... | |
| bluesound node 2i with chord quest I have two Node 2 devices. One in my living room and one in my bedroom, maybe 25 feet away. Both are connected to wifi. I have a wireless access point in my living room and a wireless repeater. I haven't compared to a wired ethernet connection... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I love Yes! I have Close to the Edge and the Kevin Gray remaster of Yes in the on-deck box. Listening to Eagles - Hell Freezes Over tonight. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Wayne, I don't think I had ever listened to that album. After hearing it, it made me wish I was a little more open minded in my youth. I had a similar experience this morning listening to Grace by Jeff Buckley this morning on Qobuz. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Listening to Jeff Buckley - Grace (Legacy Edition) this morning. | |

| What are you streaming tonight? That would be cool. I can relate to unpredictable work schedules. | |
| Tuner calibration North West coast. Yahoo Groups has a group called fmtunerinfo and there's also an fmtunerinfo website. You should be able to find information on repairs at both places. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Uber, you'll be close to my neck of the woods. I'm in Olympia. | |
| Tuner calibration North West coast. Some places to try are Hawthorne (Seattle), Gig Harbor Audio, and Desco (Olympia). I took one of my tuners in to Desco and they were willing to work on it. Unfortunately they couldn't find the part needed to repair it. I've had them work on a numb... | |
| ML Dynamo 1000 vs REL 212 SE First let me say that I have not heard either of the subs you're considering. If your primary use is home theater, for what you're considering spending on the Rel subs you could have 3-4 great subs from Rythmik, SVS, or Power Sound Audio. Or just... | |
| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... I've never been a huge Moody Blues fan, but I saw them two or three years ago (maybe longer) in Portland (OR) and they put on a great show. They rocked a lot harder than they do on their records. | |
| Your favorite Small Apartment Speakers I like the Cantons in a bigger space. Great bass and imaging. I'm using the Focal in my computer room which is pretty small, almost near field. Both are great speakers. |
