| Innuos PULSE Mini? @soix Thank you. Abbas requires a 3 month build period due to the labor intensity. There were just a couple of delays due to blackouts after attacks Abbas told me. I’m very grateful he has stayed “relatively “ safe through these ongoing war cond... | |
| Streamer upgrade? follow up. @thyname $500 you paid for your Node goes a long way in feeding the hungry people. Just saying Exactly! @niodari There are people who’d chastise you for foolishly spending 500.00 when you could purchase an audio streaming component for les... | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? @cleeds and would only add that some some clearly come here specifically to argue and pontificate. Agreed. Charles | |
| pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3 These are all very good linear power supplies. Some will sound better paired with certain components compared to others. There are just multiple factors/variables that make this so. It is impossible to declare one LPS superior to all the others ba... | |
| Streamer upgrade? follow up. Santa Claus is doing magic... He could do the same magic if you have been ordered Node 2i instead and, he would in addition gift you in addition $5500 :-) This is true if you compared them directly in your audio system and heard no soun... | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? @ghdprentice That is thoughtful and well stated. It seems to me that the really successful and innovative audio designers and manufacturers have a more “scientist” curiosity and open mind. They recognize what they can’t easily explain or underst... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @lalitk Thanks for the link. Charles | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? @zlone I appreciate your comments and sharing of your experiences. I don’t believe that jssmith would dispute that differences are heard, but rather why they are heard. Manipulation of signal/distortion to achieve a desired sound. I believe tha... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @lalitk Thank you very much for your input and recommendations. Yes, I’m going to get the new DAC into my system and develop a degree of familiarity. Once achieved I’ll tackle the server /streamer component. More than likely I will just get a hi... | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? @jssmith pronouncements are very similar to a former poster on this forum named "cindymint". Essentially listening to and judging what audio components actually sound like is foolish, misleading and subjective rubbish. Measurements rule. Antithet... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @thyname Thanks, I have certainly gathered that there are a number of ways to approach audio streaming. I’ve heard from people who are on polar ends of this spectrum. Charles | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @lalitk , Thanks, I’ve been advised that modem directly connected to streamer unit could introduce noise issue, quality mesh is potentially a better alternative. Learning the ends and outs of audio streaming. Charles | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @lalitk Thanks, I have a two-story home and also a finished basement where my audio system resides. My cable modem is currently in a first floor library. I was going to use a mesh router in my listening room with close proximity to the streamer ... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @sns @lalitk You both are experienced audio streamers. What cable modem and router do you use? I have gotten suggestions from a very trusted source and I’m just trying to further extend my database. As I tend to do. Charles | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? @vonhelmholtz Very well said. Charles |
