| Thought I’d share: Nicely done and practical DAC review Count me as a fan as well. Sad that he’s going to slow way down soon for health reasons. | |
| Zavfino OCC SILVER DART 1.5 power cable Thanks @cleeds It’s sad when a member has to shoot his mouth off over and over, without adding anything constructive. | |
| Flat Screen Television behind speakers Yep, I have a quilt on mine. Pull it off when we want to watch a movie and back on when I want to listen to music. All the best. | |

| Streamer issues @vaejoviscarolinanus Are you using Airplay? | |
| Streamer matching to system @matt_mccloat Do you like the Bluesound software? I have the new N130 and replaced the power supply with a linear power supply and am running it into a Denafrips Pontus ll. The better DAC made a huge difference as you might have guessed and the ... | |
