First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship Agreed with the post above, the USB format still offers SOTA sounds. I have owned all 3 of them and from my listening, I found this in order of preference for the Pink Faun bridges: 1. Ultra USB bridge (built in OCXO and UC power) 2. USB v2 brid... | |
Current quality of Rune @sns Yup, agreed. For sure if you focus enough on making Roon sound good it can achieve very high levels. The effort is worth it as the interface is so good. It doesn’t take much to beat the design of the Stylus interface haha. But considerab... | |
Current quality of Rune It's not only Roon that has a sound type, in my experience it's the OS type and setup that Roon operates in that affects Roon's final sound. Until recently, Pink Faun used Euphony as their OS. This OS offers many playback setups including Euphony... | |
Newsflash - Jord discusses Pink Faun’s new OS and their Scion streamer Oct 2024 Totally, couldn't agree more. Roon has the best library interface and gets in the way the least when listening to music. I find other playback software constantly needs attention to optimise or just work properly. | |
Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator Don’t have them in my system but I’m told that in addition to the usual benefits of passing the signal through mini-transformers, the Pink Faun LAN isolator device works to shielding against high-frequency (HF) noise originating from the LAN netwo... | |
USB revisited Check out Pink Faun’s upcoming Ultra USB card. I expect this to make a tsunami wave in the sea of USB connections! - Ultra OCXO clocked - Only externally powered - Super capacitor system - EMI isolation https://audiophilestyle.com/forum... | |
Has Anyone heard The Boulder 1021 CD player? Yes I have heard the Boulder 1021 in my own system. A dealer brought it over along with some other high end equipment.I'm using the CD7 as my standard player and I have not heard a better CD player than it before......until now. I'm a strong suppo... | |
CARDAS Fans: Golden vs. Neutral vs. Presence? Muralman1, it's entirely possible that it's MY system that is unbalanced and that the Golden Reference speaker cable brought it back to neutral. After all, what we are listening to is the TOTAL SUM of all our components. Faced with too many degree... | |
CARDAS Fans: Golden vs. Neutral vs. Presence? I'm using Golden Ref speaker cables and in my opinion they sound just fine. There are too many variables in the system to say what causes differing sounds, harshness, mouth, head sounds, fat bass etc. It could be caused by so many parts of the ent... | |
Wilson MAXX musicallity and sound Like Dave says in his descriptions of the Sumiko Master Set procedure, getting the focus right in bass, mid, treble and everything in between is very difficult but achievable. If you want to DIY, you can use mono recordings to assist in getting ba... | |
Wilson MAXX musicallity and sound In addition to speaker placement (so critical for Wilson speakers, need to get them right down to the last 1/2 inch), room treatment you can also explore vibration control.You didn't mention how you are placing your equipment but in my experience ... | |
Have you noticed that... When you run out of money, you start enjoying the music... heh heh | |
Best tube amp for Wilson Watt/Puppy I used to use a Krell KSA 200s sometime back with my Watt Puppy 6s (with the new tweeter) and although the system is not the same, it probably sounds somewhat similar to your current setup. If so, there is plenty of room for improvement on the amp... | |
New Hilary Hahn disc Thanks for the heads up. I have a few of her recordings for Mozart and Bach and she is good. Raving review in Amazone also. Will try out this new one. | |
A Newbie's First Week Impressions -- Vinyl Rules Hi Maineiac, I suppose for used records, you will have to clean them before playing. I never did get into used stuff, bought all my records new. I suppose technology and the purchasing power of audiophiles have moved on since the 80s. In those day... |
