| Which atmos reciever/preamp / integrated has the best room correction built in and atmos? I'm not sure how helpful this is as I have not heard an Anthem surround sound processor.I recently replaced my Marantz AV8801 processor (top of the Marantz line at the time) with the AV7704 (second tier). To my ears, the AV7704 sounds as good as ... | |
| Why the facination with integrated amps? It's nice to have options. I have separates in my main system. I have more space and am more concerned about sound quality in the main system. I have an integrated in my home office (Audio Research VSi55). I have a tuner, turntable, and DAC co... | |
| Confused State of affairs: CD player I would expect the MCD600 to sound different/better than the Oppo at its price point, but haven't heard one. A CD player includes a DAC, a transport does not and requires an external DAC. | |
| Network cabling for BlueSounds' Node 2i Network server I used Cat 6A to connect my wireless repeater to my Node 2. Probably overkill. I used el cheapo Monoprice cable. It's very inexpensive and seems to be well built. I probably should have used megabucks audiophile Ethernet cable, but it's for a ... | |
| Lyle Lovett & John Hiatt, on tour I saw them last Friday here in Olympia, great show! They seemed very relaxed and like they were having a lot of fun. The stage banter added to the performance in my opinion and both were in fine form from a singing and playing perspective. | |
| Intervention... I need help... I know you're serious about your request for help, but you're probably the only one that has heard all those pieces. Which ones sound best to you, and what combinations sound best to you? Which pieces fit best in the space you have? I don't hav... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Dire Straits self-titled - Back to Black 180 gram. Sounded heavenly! | |
| Confused State of affairs: CD player No experience with the Mac, so I can't say if that specific piece will be "better". I have my Oppo 203 playing through my Auralic Vega and it sounds very good, but my Marantz KI-Pearl sounds much better and it plays SACD. If you want to take a s... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Feats Dont Fail Me Now. | |
| The Music Room I've bought a number of items from them with no issue. I just purchased a preamp and it arrived with one of the capacitors detached. I contacted them, sent them a photo, and they had a prepaid shipping label to me the same day, no questions aske... | |
| Great New Linda Ronstadt Live I'm listening now on Tidal. I'm just getting over a head cold and my ears are a little stuffed up along with everything else, but it sounds nice! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Seeing the post about Deceptive Bends made me want to listen to some 10CC. Playing Greatest Hits 1972-1978. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw It was one of the better shows I've been to. The two of them on stage together, a couple of acoustic guitars each, lots of witty banter, and outstanding performances by them both. | |
| Where to go in Portland... Hey now, let's keep Echo a little on the down low so that when they post cool "new" stuff on their web site it won't be gone before I get a chance to look! |
