| Looking for my End Game Speaker Hi @calgarian5355, I loved my Haileys. Fast, tight, super imaging, very resolving. But I like the Giya G2s even more. Much more lower midrange and bass. And even though they are ported, the bass is very controlled. Just deeper, richer and st... | |
| Looking for my End Game Speaker Hello @calgarian5355, I have had my Vivid Giya G2s for a week now and they are fantastic! Imaging, depth, resolution, a true sense of involvement with the music. We share the same streamer and DAC... | |

| Newsflash - Jord discusses Pink Faun’s new OS and their Scion streamer Oct 2024 Very interesting. As a Roon lover, I certainly understand how other software streamers sound better. But I want my Roon and the brest sound! | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio I have a relevant situation. In my vacation home I have no Ethernet wiring past my modem location. I have installed an Eero pro 6 mesh system with base and two extenders. One extender is in my audio room, where I have a WiFi connected Auralic A... | |
| Power cord upgrade Using the Shunyata Denali 6000 v2 I have had great success with both the Shunyata Sigma v 2 and Kubala Sosna Elation power cables. | |
| Separates vs Integrated Try an AudioNET Pre 1 G3. You see them here for under 4k. It was my first taste of high end. | |
| Using a power strip in an old home that was build back in 1955 Your circuit, which likely consists of several to many wall outlets, is likely on a 15amp breaker, if you have breakers. This can be easily overpowered with that number of outlets on one strip. Add up the amps of each thing you intend to plug i... | |

| IsoAcoustics Gaia feet with carpet disks Hello @jrdavisphd I installed Gaia feet on two sets of speakers with great results: BW N802s: Replaced stock rolling casters with Gaias and carpet discs on carpet / pad over concrete. Better soundstage and imaging for sure. Revel Salon 2s: r... | |
| Wireless speakers Hello @jdsmichaels , have you tried the new Sonos Era 300 speakers? I think they sound great, and super EZ to set up. I have previously used Bluesound and these are way better. Also B/W which sounded great but was not EZ. | |
| Next step up on the streaming food chain? and, as I have asked before, where are all (anyone?) the happy 432 Evo owners? ??? | |
| Integrated Amps I am quite impressed with the Soulnote A2. I see it occasionally only used for under 5k. It is SS but has a wonderful warm but resolving sound. From your list, and other recommendations, I can only say it is much nicer than the PS Strata, or NA... | |
| Upgrade to PS Audio Direcstream Mk1 and Mac Mini? …think Grimm MU1 and MU2, top of the line Innuos. But they’re in a different price category than the PS Audio DAC. Something to think about. Oh and the Grimm units have a built in DAC. Just for clarification, the Grimm MU1 is Roon Core (Server)... | |
| Any real experiences with a Luxman C900u and C10x? +1 @ghdprentice on the sound attributes of Luxman. I extensively demoed one of the Class AB Integrateds with Persona 7F speakers. I was all set to take them for in home trial, but was disappointed in the harshness and lack of midrange warmth. U... |
