| Streamer Fidelity: Aurender N200 vs A200 and Lumin U2 vs T3 Does anyone have any experiences they can share? | |
| Aurender Conductor App Question @lalitk , @12many Thanks! It looks like Aurender/Conductor has the capability I am looking for. BTW I am old school, and like to organize my music manually and navigate folders :) It also seems like for Classical music, if the metadata is not the ... | |

| Intermittent audio dropouts when streaming Qobuz Hi Res files on Lumin streamer Maybe also turn off and on your switch? | |
| Magnepan DWM Bass Panel Good point about considering a better subwoofer, which in turn I can also use with my box speakers. @johnto Yes, I have it setup at around 55 Hz and volume as low as possible to avoid boominess. I used a spectrum analyzer on my iPad to help with ... | |
| Finally...subwoofer that's aesthetically pleasing! @roadcykler +1 | |
| Furman Upgrade to Niagra Yes, my current setup is an Equi=Core600 plugged into one of the unfiltered plugs of the PST-8D. In addition, using a couple of Akiko products connected to both units. | |
