DDC With I2S in and Out People just need to quit using computers as sources and get a good streamer WITH I2Z | |
Do I still need a DDC in between? Ya return the ddc | |
DAC suggestions? I agree with cutting the computer cord, getting a Roon endpoint and separate dac. Just try to find a streamer and dac with i2S ports, that way you can ignore those who try to get you to buy an unnecessary ddc. | |
Jazz for aficionados Any Bird | |
Options to improve digital sound So I use the Sonic Transporter on my network but rather than using a noisy computer to control Roon, I just use a decent streamer connected i2S to my dac. Sounds awesome. | |
Experience with stacked subwoofers? It enriches subwoofer company's that saturated the market 20 years ago. So, ya, a marketing ploy. | |
Qobuz vs Airplay Anything with Apple or "mac" labeled, run! Run away. | |
New vs uses in your current setup 25% used. But I don't buy cables used anymore at least not AQ or Nordost. Too many Chinese knockoffs on the used market. | |
Help please! Something amiss with my digital chain I would encourage you to watch some extensive interviews of both Rob Watts of Chord Electrics and Mark Levinson for his Daniel Hertz products. | |
TOSLINK Optical vs Coaxial for CD transport to DAC While concur with most (or all) that's been said already, coax isn't without its own issues. | |
Looking for a more up-to-date streamer https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/2813333 @campoly Airlens are very good. No loss omitting the usb. At least they know what an over-hyped connection it is. Never take audio advice from a computer nerd. | |
Darko nailed it. 12 examples of wishful thinking in the hi-fi community I’m certain that anyone who minimizes the differences in how gear sounds, refuses to get their hearing checked. Because, if they did, the results would dictate the need for them to sit down and shut up. Their egos won’t allow that. | |
which power cable and USB cable for my Innous Zenith Mk3? @grunge1000 I feel sorry for you | |
which power cable and USB cable for my Innous Zenith Mk3? I have a Cardas and Nordost blue USB. Everyone I’ve a/b’d them for agrees that the Nordost sounds better. Power cables can be more subjective. Shunyata is a safe beybet. | |
Need a solid surge protector that’s non-current limiting. X3 on the Puritan PSM156. I use two of them. |
