| KEF Meta speakers vs non meta Curiousjim-I'd appreciate an update on what you learn and hear at the KEF event! | |
| Innuous Zenith-saving albums question I should have included that I'm using the Sense app to access Qobuz and Tidal albums. | |
| Comparing Directstream 1 and 2 Thaks audphile1 for your wishes-very much appreciated. You’re absolutely correct about priorities. I went through some scary times but things are better now and I’m back to audio. Here’s an update. I kept the Directstream 2 because I thought ther... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream Mk2 DAC - How good is it vs Mk1? Weiss, Bricasti? I upgraded from the Directstream 1 to 2 about 6 months ago. Ar first, I wasn't sure it was worth the difference...until this week when I installed the new massive firmware update. Wow-Major improvement. Now I wonder if they will ever be able to... | |
| Digital add ons-airlens, matrix spdif, Innuous Phoenix net, Phoenix usb I listen mainly to classical music. I love string instruments, especially the cello, with its dark, vibrant sounds. The Bach sonatas for solo cello are one of my favorite tests of musical reproduction. On chamber and orchestral music, I like be... | |
| Digital add ons-airlens, matrix spdif, Innuous Phoenix net, Phoenix usb Thanks vonhelmholz. I’ve spent the last 40 minutes trying to post my virtual system. After figuring out the first several steps—which are far from intuitive—I keep getting “user can’t be blank” although it’s definitely not blank. I realize this... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC My PS Audio mark 2 also has no hum. Since PS Audio offers a 30 day return period, you can always send it back if there’s hum or for any other reason. Their customer service is excellent. | |
| Innuos Statement vs Zenith Mk3 + PhoenixUSB Russ751, I also would appreciate your thoughts about the Phoenix usb. | |

| Roon Thanks....but I've tried saving every available version of certain albums, one after another, and none of them is saved--even though a Roon message says they are. The funny thing is that some albums are saved with no problems and others just won'... | |
| Who is your Favorite Historical Conductor? Guido Cantelli-protege of Toscanini who.died tragically in a plane crash in 1956. Toscanini wasn't told about it since he was frail at the time. Cantelli did make several recordings. Erich and Carlos Kleiber-father and son, both gone now. Carlos... | |
| Roon Roon is making it difficult to save Tidal and Qobuz albums. When I try, it gives me a message that the album has been saved...but it hasn't. Sometimes if I try multiple times, it saves. Other times, it works if I switch to a different version o... | |
| Berkeley CA audiophile is desperate need of help Bander-hope your problem has been solved. I didn't mention another obvious thing in my previous post--do you have other sources--a turntable, tuner, etc.--and did you check to see if they work? I assume the dealer who said no to bringing in your... | |
| Berkeley CA audiophile is desperate need of help I have an Innuous Zenith 3 and PS Audio Directstream dac. Occasionally, they stop speaking to each other or stop making music for some reason . I begin by powering off the Innuous, waiting a few minutes and powering it back on, as has been sugg... | |
| KEF Blade 2 I have the KEF Reference 5s--very happy with them. But since I'm always interested in the latest and greatest, I would love to know how the Meta 5s compare to the regular 5s. Probably much too early for any dealers to have them but if anyone doe... |
