Zu Essence upgrade kit - worthwhile? Gopher, I'm thinking about the upgrade for my Omens. Care to share more detail about your experience? I would love to know about the differences you heard. | |
An interesting experiment Almarg for President 2016. | |
Is There a New version of Logitech Media Server? Hmmm. Yesterday I was unable to connect to mysqueezebox.com (and thus access Pandora and MOG) for an hour or so, then fine. Sorry to be of no help! | |
The Audiophile's Wife no longer putting it out? Way to out yourself, Grannyring. And thanks to your wife for ongoing humor and perspective. I've shown her blog to my wife a number of times to foster virtual commiseration over our audio craziness. | |
Wyred4Sound Dac-2 vs Preamp and separate DAC Just to add a perspective, I am really happy with my DAC-2 running direct to a tube integrated that has a resistor-ladder attenuator for volume control, though I have not compared it with a preamp in the chain.Regarding a sweet-spot on the DAC-2, ... | |
How Good Is A Marble Slab at Deadening Vibration Everybody is right so far.And: if you rest that massive slab on some manner of damping footers -- and your wife likes the way it looks -- your stereo will sound better to you than it does now. | |
Room acoustics in a former church sanctuary? Nick,Don't give up yet. As my real estate broker says, "There is no smooth real estate transaction. Every single one has a snag or a snafu." Just because the property is under contract doesn't mean it's a done deal. | |

Is a dimmer noisy when it's turned OFF? You guys are great. I will tell my wife that having a dimmer in the dining room is a BIG compromise but I am willing to make it. :-) | |
Is a dimmer noisy when it's turned OFF? Thanks, Elizabeth. Great to know. | |
Power Cord up to $100? My experience with the AC9 was almost the opposite, Melm. After a couple of weeks of break-in, it excelled on the bottom-end and added warmth without sacrificing detail. Bear with it a while and let s know if anything changes. | |
Jazz for aficionados I listened to Ike Quebec's Bossa Nova Soul Samba last night and it made me very, very happy. | |
I2S, S/PDIF, Toslink connections Steve, the only _input_ on the OR5 seems to be USB. And there's no USB Out from a Squeezebox Touch. | |
I2S, S/PDIF, Toslink connections Steve, please consider including a coax input on the Offramp 5 so that I can buy one to put between my Squeezebox Touch and my W4S DAC2. I would really like to try feeding the DAC2 via I2S. | |
Super Cheap Upgrade I tend to have moderate wax buildup. About once every two weeks I bulb hydrogen peroxide into the ear canal and lay on my side about 10 minutes for the bubbling to stop. Squeaky-clean ears, and doctor-approved technique. |
