| What to do with my legacy CD collection? To all, my motivation is primarily one of convenience for redbook CDs that are readily available on Tidal or Qobuz. If I want to listen to Sacds, Dvd audio, Mfsl, and DCC gold disks, I will use my Modwright Oppo 105. | |
| What to do with my legacy CD collection? @melbay So how do you like the Zenith? Any tips for me before I fire it up? | |

| What to do with my legacy CD collection? @vonhelmholtz Thanks. Good idea! | |
| What to do with my legacy CD collection? @dayglow I understand your point of view. My objective is primarily motivated out of convenience for the 2,500 CDs you refer to above. I fully expect to continue to use my Modwright Oppo 105 when SQ matters, such as SACDs, Dvd-Audio, HDCD encode... | |
| What to do with my legacy CD collection? @czarivey okay I will keep you in mind as I am plowing through my collection and ripping them to FLAC flies. | |
| Should I Keep my Second CD Player? @lcherepkai Forgot to mention that my Oppo 105 was extensively modified by Dan Wright. It included a separate power supply with rectifier tubes, etc. The cost of the mod was greater than the cost of the Oppo st the time. You are correct in stat... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @audiotroy thanks for your reply. I researched (online) the 432 evo standard and it looks like a great unit. I went with the Zenith mk3 for the following reasons: - one box solution with a 4TB SSD - I have neither the desire or funds to upgrad... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @ianderson thanks. I wound up getting the Zenith. One box, better sound, Sense app, etc. Running it through a Chord Qutest Dac. Happy listening to all!! | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @forestg Thanks for your insight. I think I'm going to go the Innuos route. Actually, I'm in the process on doing a deal online as I type. Once it's confirmed, I'll report back to you and the group who so graciously helped me on this journey. ... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @forestg thanks. Was not aware of the ability to upgrade to SSD on the ZENmini S. Is this upgrade path available for the ZEN model as well? | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @bondmanp thank you for your feedback. I'm leaning towards the i5 over the ZEN at this point. I need to talk to Andrew at SGC first, as I have a few questions for him. I want to get your opinion on my approach if I go the i5 route. My thoughts... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @jonwolfpell, thank you for your comments. I'm glad you waited and saved for the Zenith. I just took a look at it on the Innuos website and it looks great. I can only imagine what it sounds like. I've now got to process all of this great infor... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @jjss49 , thanks. Looks like I have some homework to do. Have a good evening. | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @soix , thanks for the suggestion. Looks like I can get the TP-Link WiFi extender on Amazon. This still would require that I load and rip the CDs from my stereo cabinet without the benefit of an ergonomic chair, correct? I am recovering from th... |
