| Streaming vs Physical Media Unless you have a large number of CD's, or very rare music on CD (which is doubtful), I'd go just with streaming and not spend it on a CD player. I myself did have a large number of CD's (600+) and went with a Bluesound Vault and burnt them to the... | |
| Aurender N100 or X100? I have the Aurrender N200, I love it. My understanding of using an external HDD is that the Aurrender app will not see those files, you have to use the file folders function. I suggest a call to Aurender to confirm, their help desk is great. All t... | |
| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread Thank you @nonoise , I would not have been as polite. Well said. | |
| Albums you do not get...a plea for help and understanding I’ll jump in on an interesting thread. I didn’t get the Grateful Dead, hated the Europe 72 album as my roommate played it again and again. But a year later it was my favorite. Also, I am from New Jersey (don’t hold that against me) originally, and... | |
| non-high end collectables, radios..etc. I restored an old table-top tube radio that was from around the 1930’s, beautiful wood cabinet. Lots of fun to show off and play, but eventually sold it to a collector as it become a dust collector. Did sound nice. | |
| Burmester 061 or Aurender N10? I have the Aurender N200 with a PS Audio DAC. One major benefit is that I can upgrade the DAC and improve the sound. Which is why I avoided any server/streamer with a built in DAC. Much like folks who go with a separate pre and amp rather then an ... | |
| Bookshelf speakers - Paradigm, KEF, Totem I have owned KEF and Totems, both are very good for the music you listen too. I currently own Harbeth I love them but they are not Rocknroll speakers. Jimmy is correct on those. I’d suggest trying the larger bookshelf Totems if you can. | |
| Honest Experience on Effects of Subwoofer Please …”At times I felt I could hear an improvement and at other times I thought the sub wasn’t doing anything”….the trick is to not notice the sub, at least until you turn it off and then realize it’s making a huge difference. If you can tell you have ... | |
| Bookshelf dilemma I have the same type of room, a little smaller, had Totems for a good while, very lively sound. I switched to Harbeth 30.2, as I had enough self space for them, but the P3 fits the bill oif you need smaller. However, Harbeth's in my opinion, are a... | |
| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs For my 30.2's I got a JL Audio F110v2. It mates nicely with the Harbeth sound, can't even tell it's on or where it is. Just sounds like the 30.2's with a bit more bass. So that's probably the biggest trick, matching to the Harbeth voicing. I had a... | |
| Who's an artist that you're a fan of but whose name you're not sure how to pronounce? Jorma - not even going to try and spell his last name, much less pronounce it. | |
| Change from PS Audio S300 Stereo Power Amp to PS Audio M700 Mono Amps I'll assume more pressure means the lower frequencies. Perhaps you are hearing more bass with maybe less "control" over the woofers? I own a PS DAC and they have been very helpful when I had questions, give them a call, they might have some ideas ... | |
| Songs that sound like Dylan Besides Dylan... JJ Cale and Eric Clapton The Rutles and The Beatles (yes, parody but still) Spinal Tap and The Who/Queen - they mashed together several bands at once. | |
| tech I do not know of any car system that will allow you to do that. Post the car and system it has in it, perhaps that might help. What has your dealer said? | |
| Aurender N20 I just got the N200 and love it. I couldn’t justify spending the money on the N20 for the level of my system, a Luxman 590AXII and Harbeth 30.2 speakers, so I would say the same to you, which one matches your system, current or possible future sys... |
