| Aurender I stretched for the Aurender N-200 in April, it was a great decision, I am very happy with it. System in my profile. I have the Black one. I suggest you contact Juan at @Blisshifi for pricing on a unit. He sold me mine. | |
| Building a music room To be clear here, you are at a budget of $2-$3K all in for speakers, amp, digital front end and need a phono preamp included. It needs to stream music and have a dac? | |
| Tube Testing Service Recommendation +2 for Western Glow, I have used him several times, he tested some tubes for me to verify before selling and then he tested/matched 18 Telefunken 12AX7's for me. | |
| Legacy Audio Focus SE Bi-Amp or Not Bi-Amp Legacy offers a Balancer to attenuate one of your amps, just call or message them. I think it is $100 Here is their response: " We recommend utilizing either a Wavelet 2 or this balancer (photo below) which is available from us for $100+ship... | |
| New Aurender conductor V4 app I went back to V3. I couldn't add a track to my Qobuz playlists by touching the 3 dots on the right of the track selection on V4. | |
| What Gear Has Disappointed You? Mini DSP SHD studio for Dirac live room correction on my 2 ch rig. Placed prior to the DAC it was never able to "sync" with my system and made it sound a little "strange" and I lost the tube magic. I did hear a bit better bass and it fleshed out s... | |
| New Aurender conductor V4 app I updated to V4 today but I having trouble adding a song to a Qobuz playlist. If I do a search and find an album and I want to add a song from it to one of my playlists I can’t. When I tap the 3 dots it says add to playlist, but the Qobuz playilst... | |
| DH Labs power cables Sorry, I am late here but was in a remote area camping and no wi fi and wek cell service. As @blisshifi mentioned. I had ordered a set of 4 Meter Air Matriz cryo XLR's for my new Legacy Audio Focus XD's. Upon getting them set up I had an issue in... | |
| No love for Legacy Audio I too have a pair of Legacy Focus XD's, which I have only had for about 2 weeks. So still breaking in, I also have a Wavelet II on order to get some control over the bass, but these are very good speakers. I am using a VAC Renaissance 70/70 Signat... | |
| PSVANE ACME 300B TUBES I wish, but I need 2 matched quads and they are simply out of my price range. The Genelex PB 300's were $1750! | |
| Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping? My first "go" at this was many years ago when I got my Genesis V speakers that came with an outboard amp/crossover and used my VAC tube amp on top. My next setup was the internally powered Golden Ear Triton 1.r speakers which also "bi- amp" the ba... | |
| What new gear have you just bought? Yesterday I got my new Legacy Audio Focus XD speakers going, now I am burning them in. I traded my old speakers in for the Legacy Wavelet II which I will get in a few weeks, then I am done for a while. Next upgrade will be a DAC most likely. But t... | |
| Lush and Romantic Tube Amps @rcprince I have owned the VAC Renaissance 70/70 for 20 years, recently updated by VAC to their "signature" version 5 months ago. I don't consider it to lean towards a warm tuby sound. It is rather transparent, with a beautiful "realistic" midran... | |
| Subwoofer Advice & Therapy :) I can only respond with regard to the 1723 1s. I have one in my HT set up so no experience in my 2ch rig. This is a very good sub and often surprises me as for it’s tunefulness for music and how powerful it is in HT. It’s a 13 inch driver/sealed b... | |
| Denafrips FPGA Firmware Update All I can say is prior to 3.5 update my Venus II was 000111 I2s setting. After the update it remained 000111 and I use a Tublus Argentus I2s cable. I have no preamp right now so I cannot listen but it registers as receiving the correct signal. (44... |
