| Is it worth it? DAC question My bad---it is USB, not HDMI. Sorry about that. I connected everything as directed and was able to toggle with the Node’s app and was able to activate the toggle to turn on the external DAC. However, once connected, there’s no difference in sound-... | |
| Is it worth it? DAC question Hi @dancub and others--I need some help. I connected the external dc adapter and the HDMI to the Zen DAC V2. It's lit up. But on the Bluesound Node app (version 4.0), the external DAC switch will not let me turn it on. No sound from the Zen DAC he... | |
| Is it worth it? DAC question Thanks again for the good advice---I've got the cables to connect just need the 5v adapter then I'll try it. @parker65310 Good to know about Silnote Audio--I'm in VA, will def check them out. | |
| Is it worth it? DAC question Thanks for the responses so far--I had to order a 5v adapter so hopefully it'll be here in a couple of days. Will keep you posted. | |
| Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, I still have a pair of Canton Karat 200s and a Denon PMA-757 (made in Japan) integrated amp from the mid-80s and they still sound amazing.

| Burning smell Totally agree with contacting McIntosh--they may recommend that you send it to them to have it checked out. | |
| Totem Towers Hopefully one of the big Youtube reviewers will get these in soon---I'm very curious. They do look quite a bit like the Hawks. | |
| Stupid class A question @gs5556 Thank you so much! | |
| Luxman L-509Z Integrated Amplifier Wow! That's a $5000 difference! I wonder how much Accuphase is in Japan? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Pet Shop Boys - Smash (greatest hits on white vinyl) | |
| Stereophile review of Millercarbon system featuring Tektron speakers I'm happy for him, too. But why isn't he on Audiogon anymore?? I enjoyed reading his comments. | |
| When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? I've seen some folks on here refer to Emotiva as mid-fi but I don't think that's true at all. Honestly, I don't think there's a price line that separates HiFi from mid-fi. IMO, I would probably consider something like a mass produced stereo system... | |
| Give 'Ambrosia' another listen 'Holding on to yesterday' is one of my fav Ambrosia songs. | |
