| Streamers and their Fuses @lalitk I realize I walked into the shallow end of the Word Clock pool just to get my feet wet, I'm interested in experimenting in this area from the bottom up. I've got my eyes on the Omega or Sigma 75ohm Shunyata Word Clock cables and the Mute... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @blisshifi Juan my neighbor! Be interesting to hear your feedback from SR orange to Audio Magic M-1! @lordmelton That perfectly explains it to me. Thanks, excited for this evolvement in my system. You guys are what make Audiogon so awesome. H... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @lordmelton Good wisdom. I got one tonight. I got the Paul Pang Audio PPA OCXO 10M Master Clock for $575 here on Audiogon. I’ll get clock cables next. Exciting new HiFi realm. Thanks for the help. I honestly don’t understand how wiring works fro... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @facten Yes, I put the Audio Magic M-1 fuse in the Jay’s MK3 also, HUGE improvement. In the CD transport the stock fuse was so bad it actually caused distortion, and sometimes crackling, because it was loose in its fusel lodge. I secured it with S... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @lalitk Agreed. What external clock do you recommend please? | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @1971gto455ho The level of cynical mockery is so severe that it has to harm your hearing Hoping the best for your fuses this holiday season. | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @4afsanakhan appreciate your humor. The Furutech A/C lodge is a $15 part in the W20SE. So it is very common for power areas and fusel lodges to be neglected in hi-end HiFi, so we upgrade and customize in our hobby. | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @lordmelton I have the synergistic purples in my Magnepan 1.7i’s, and my subwoofer amp, the comparison between fuses was based on differences I’ve experienced in other equipment, I’m not willing to spend $200 to compare in the W20SE right now, b... | |
| Is it worth upgrading a CD player? I've owned the Jay's Audio MK3-CDT3 for about 4 months now. It is amazing. However, Qobuz on my English Electric Network Switch to my Aurender W20SE most often sounds superior than the Jay's flagship CD transport. Investing in an ultimate streamin... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @lalitk @carlsbad The Audio Magic M-1 uses black diamond and beeswax, about as bizarre and experimental as it gets, but I've gone through many pure silver and pure copper fuses to get to the black diamond promised land. Check it out if you can. ... | |
| Best sounding CD player @milby1 I'd love to hear the Playback Design CD Transport, but my Jay's Audio MK3-CDT3 is superb, I vote Jay's Audio Flagship. | |
| Combination streamer and music server…without DAC Get the Aurender. I have the W20SE, there is no better streamer on earth. Highly recommend English Electric 8 switch network switch with Audiowise DC power filter on it, you’lll be in streamer heaven with Qobuz. -Brandon | |
| Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System? @bluorion “I don't even tell myself how much I spent on my system.” 😹😹😹 I told the Comcast cable guy I had 55k in my rig when he hooked up my new network, he ended up charging me $100 for a free visit. Never again… | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE So after another week of critical listening I can tell you there is no digital format in existence that can compete with the CDT3-MK3 except Audiowise’s PGGB. I have 2 TB of SACD’s ripped in DSD on the W20SE’s 4TB hard drive and they sound like ga... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE @ricred1 If you have a Chord DAC the single biggest improvement is implementing Audiowise products, they are breathtaking, and will elevate your system to levels you cannot imagine. Their flagship product is the Galvanic Optical Isolation unit ca... |
