| Couple of simple forum website suggestions A "like" button would help cut down on needless posts where people just agree with a prior post. So, for example, I could have just liked @rocray's post. | |
| Digital front end upgrade options Why the Node 2i and not the current (2021) version of the Node (N130), or the tenth anniversary Node X with an improved DAC and headphone amp? If you have a deal on a NOS Node to try out or to use just as a streamer, go for it. However, I’d be a l... | |
| Considering a Node2i, what else should I be looking at? Hey, you're responding to a 4 1/2-year-old post. And now, so have I. | |
| Best quality connection from Network Streamer (BluSound Node II) to Preamp (MC C2700) As previously pointed out, the Node 2 does not have USB output. If you output via coaxial or TOSLINK you will bypass the Node's internal DAC. You will want to use fixed (not variable) output setting. You can connect the coaxial and analog RCA ou... | |
| Best DAC for iPhone - Volvo Car Play Connection? As a few others have pointed out, there is no DAC in your iPhone and you are sending a digital signal into your car's audio system. You could try a dongle DAC with your phone if your car's audio system has an analog input, but I suspect that you... | |
| What was the craziest location that you made an audio purchase from? Circa 1974, when in high school, I was putting together my first good stereo system. In those days, the classified ads in the back of the stereo magazines were full of audio wholesalers, with "low, low, prices!" So, I drove from Pennsylvania to ... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 producing distortion and dropouts Try putting in a support request [Help/Send Support Request]. BS can look at your log and possibly diagnose what is causing the problem. It may take a day or two for them to respond. In the meantime, try posting your question to the Bluesound C... | |
| Technical assistance and recommendations needed Can your Schitt equalizer help with the brightness? How about speaker grills on versus off? | |
| Advice on speaker replacement That's a good price for the older KEF R3, but will you also need new stands since that is an odd-sized stand-mount speaker? Would you consider the Q750 in that price range if you like the KEF family sound? I'm not sure what your long-range plans... | |
| Classé CP-45 remote Just a follow up - there are a few used Classe remotes on-line if you do a search, but some of the sites look a little sketchy. The Logitech Harmony website indicates that their universal remote supports the CP-45. However, I think this is a dis... | |
| Classé CP-45 remote I wish I could help. I owned a CP-45 for 20+ years and sold it last year. I was always worried about what to do if the remote failed. I searched around on the internet for replacement remotes (or codes) but gave up looking after a while. It is ... | |
| Best 1,000 complete system for girlfriend ideas And here we are 21 years later. Wonder if the OP still has the same GF...? I didn't notice the date of the original thread and was ready to post why no one is recommending any streaming or Bluetooth options. | |
| BlueOS Changes Coming? Currently, I use an optical cable from a BlueSound Vault to my external DAC, then analog cable into the receiver. I assume USB between Vault and DAC would produce some improvement but not sure I'd hear the difference. Hopefully its more than that... | |
| Best Speaker for a reflective room ? @peter_s I agree. With such a large room, try to arrange some furniture so that you have a smaller listening area where you sit closer to the speakers and have an open space behind your listening position. | |
| Micca 14 Gauge Pure Copper Speaker Wire I saw Huff's review, so I bought a 4-meter pair of Miccas just for yuks. I have an old pair of Transparent Plus BiCables in my main system, and Anticable 2.1 in a smaller system. I'd echo @mceljo with regard to how they sound; very musical and sm... |
