| Problems with the IFI Zen Stream.. What's a better Alternative? Great!!! A question for my personal info (re comparison with the Ultrarendu) : Did you use a better power supply with your ZS or did you use the OEM one? Thanks... | |
| Dedicated line (almost) 'If the switches are 'off' there is no current flow through that section of line giving you a dedicated line'. Great. If it is the case / Mijostin is right, I will simply buy a probe to check if I have any other noise sources on my line (see the 1... | |
| Dedicated line (almost) Erik : Yes I do. Until recently, I was not aware of the 'dimmer noise problem'....and I always felt my sound was better daytime (vs the evening). I thought it was due to the internet traffic (I'm not an expert as you can see) but when I read about... | |
| Dedicated line (almost) Do not know exactly the length of the circuit and the gauge. The breaker is 15 amps and the house is 10 years old so it is to new standards. Think I will buy a probe to try to follow the line and know better it's length and so on | |

| Problems with the IFI Zen Stream.. What's a better Alternative? I found the procedure re ZS issue / Google DNS. Like you, I am not an expert. I just follow this procedure and it solves my issues.

| Problems with the IFI Zen Stream.. What's a better Alternative? I also had a lot of drop offs with with ZS and I was almost ready to give up. Then, I found this on a ZS forum and my ZS is rock solid since (I did it 1 year ago) : Of the top of my head : 1) I Configure my router to reserve a local IP address to... | |
| DAC contest: Border Patrol Sei or Chord Qutest? This is a comparaison between the two... and it mirrors my findings. This being said, both are very good. ihttps://youtu.be/XmPRQzsM0Cw?list=PLZToa7thVvKgKSc-EaIFy1f8i07BVkn6v | |

| Border Patrol DAC tube change Bonjour Mmhifi, Just to know : Could you tell me if the stock ez80 tube was very old? Just wondering if age could be a factor. PS Before owning the BP, I did not understand why some are saying that tone is more important than details / the last ... |
