Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT
I have never really found the difference between the two.  
Is there such a thing as a FOREVER DAC/streamer?
 In my opinion, DAC technology, like computers etc. is a moving target. Pick a time to hop on the train, and look forward to the future. I don’t think there is a “forever” in this area. Now, loudspeakers can be a different story in that many can f... 
BluSound Node and Node 2
Although, I haven’t had any problems with my nodes, when I did have issues I agree their customer service of recent time is the pits! Early on they were great but I guess as they sold more and more, they haven’t kept up. As for the quality and int...

Aurender N200
@lalitk I can do all of that editing etc with a nas.  A lot of people store more than their music in their nas ie files photos etc. In that respect, it makes sense financially and physical sense to use a nas. I just don’t want to be “locked in” an... 
Aurender N200
@blisshifi I understand all of this, but Aurender is built for using the internal storage, not the other way around. Therefore, the benefit, so to speak, of using Aurender is it’s built in storage. Aside from the tweaking, I live in Florida, and w...
