| Mini PC as a streamer I used to use the PI but switched over to the Kingdel Fanless Mini PC, HTPC with Intel i5 CPU. It was a lot cheaper a year ago. I run Foobar and Fidelizer and it’s wonderful. I had to switch to a Windows PC because I’m a Amazon HD user and there ... | |
| What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please. Sure all USB sounds alike. If you can’t hear it then it must be true. While Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ added Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, throughput on Raspberry Pi 4 is free from the single shared USB 2.0 channel to the SoC The USB host controll... | |
| PS Audio FR-30 Speaker... Mesanovic RTM10 Active speaker for $8 grand and even has an optional spring platform for Millercarbon. | |
| What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please. One of the big improvements of the Raspberry PI 4 was to separate the USB bus from the ethernet bus. Why?... Because of the noise of the shared bus. PI 3 was still able to backup your hard drive as a computer bit (a switch) isn’t as prone to noise... | |
| What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please. Unless you are having software problems, all streamers will sound alike. Zeros and ones. . In a perfect world yes but in reality that’s not true. The voltages that are represented by ones and zeros have residual values that distorts the signal.... | |
| 15 Dollar Roon Endpoint So it's not really $15 dollars as you'll need to buy a SD card and a power supply. So it's more of a $25 roon endpoint but thanks for the update. | |
| Cowboy Bebop Remake - The best Jazz on TV? Cowboy Bebop was fun. Never watching the anime it still stood on its own for what it is. As for the jazz I enjoyed the music of The Eddy and Coisa Mais Linda (Girls from Ipanema) I am not a robot ... yet | |
| Why Do All Arcam Units (and Maybe Others) Have Only Two-Prong Power? Violating the ground of something designed to be grounded can kill you. Just saying. I could be struck by an asteroid too. Did you try a two prong plug into the new place? How did it sound? Look at your toaster. How many prongs does its pl... | |
| So where do you fall in the spectrum.? Gear or Music? So is this an investment question? I do have more invested in my gear than I do my music media but I also stream which defers the total cost into easy monthly payments... for the rest of my life | |
| Why Do All Arcam Units (and Maybe Others) Have Only Two-Prong Power? Because it sounds better. A really easy test. Purchase a three prong to two prong cheater plug and isolate your amp. I actually use one for DAC also. Much tighter bass and a clearer background. There is a safety factor but your amp isn't a sk... | |
| Do I need a subwoofer? Actually running three subs would be best. Every room has cancelations from reflections and by using multiple subwoofers you can overcome the room issues. The good news is that doesn't require the most expensive subs and they really only fill in... | |
| How do you know when a stereo sounds good? Some measurements are critical. How wide is it? How tall and how deep is it? Will it fit on my shelf? How loud will it play? All the rest of the measurements are just marketing. I can’t hear numbers or even verify what the heck they’re actually m... | |
| MHDT Orchid TUBE ROLLING +1 @zm108 Just (I mean I'm two albums in) installed the 5670 to 6922 adapter. Great sound and I'm using a lot less expensive tube than the WE D getter. What do people do with their old 5670 collection? | |

| How do you know when a stereo sounds good? So you're the one. Move to the right. The left lane is for passing not camping lost in the music. |
