| Help with hiss @carlsbad2 I had given that some thought, and I agree that it is likely upstream from the amps/speakers. Question: my preamp is a tube pre that is not on or in standby mode. It is plugged in, but fully “off”. Could it still create a problem? Than... | |
| Help with hiss @soix Thank you so much. This is definitely a drag. It does happen at night, but my listening may start before the hiss starts. Once the hiss starts, it’s pretty obvious. Even my wife noticed it. I had feared that it might be something in the grid... | |
| Help with hiss @soix Thank you. Excellent question and something I forgot to include. I’ve owned this system in its current iteration for a few years now. This hiss started maybe 2 or 3 months ago, but I lose track. The only new “thing” I’ve added to my home is... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer Thank you, @soix . I have every intention of doing so.😉 I saw that you can save a couple of dollars by buying both at the same time, so I’ll save a little longer to be able to do that. | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer @drlou77 I am by no means an expert at this, nor an expert on Innuos products. I have been researching these very options of late, as I heard the Zen at the Capital Audio Fest and I really liked it. It appears that the ZenMini S is a new produc... | |
| ZEN Mini S vs. Small Green Computer Sonic Transporter i5 music server/Ultra Rendu Streamer I have been researching this quite a bit, as well. With all due respect to the prior posters, if the OP was interested in the Zen MiniS, it does feature an SSD and an upgraded 8GB of memory, at least as I understand it. Also, if you don’t need th... | |
| SPDIF Coax cable recommendation? +1 for Triode Wire Labs. I’ve heard the TWL and Border Patrol DAC combination before and it sounded great to me. My next upgrade will be to both of those. “Triode Pete” is an amazingly nice guy and will custom build you a cable if necessary. They ... | |

| Who are the Stand Up Guy's and Gals in this Audio Industry? Klaus Bunge at Odyssey Audio. I am his NY PITA, but he always treats me with respect and takes whatever time he needs to explain to me his products, and match them to my needs.Whether it’s a new purchase, an upgrade of a previous purchase, or just... | |
| Looking for an amp that punches way about its weight and I can grow with I think Odyssey is a great choice. What Klaus would build for you is for your system, your needs, and your preferences. It is not a “one size fits all” operation. He takes great care to understand your needs and builds the amps for you. Stratos mo... | |
| A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV Would any of the owners of the current Klipsch IV lineup be so kind as to post the approximate dimensions of their respective rooms?My next speaker purchase is going to be one from the Klipsch Heritage line (now that the Forte IV is out). I need t... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? I don’t know if this counts. Aerosmith didn’t even show up for their show in ‘77 or ‘78. “Plane caught fire in Boston” was the excuse, but we were told only after opening band Golden Earring played a 17 minute version of “Radar Love”. It got very ... |
