| Rant against the industry with hopes for discussion on positive change I see the younger generation more leaning toward HT set ups. Multi channel systems. | |
| What's going on with the used audio gear market? I just did that myself, in fact his price was so high I am just going to buy new instead. 20% is nothing for a 3 year old item. | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. @soix I will, my pre-amp is currently at VAC and the upgrade was completed this week. It's in the testing stage and then will ship. I need to get it back, buy the Mini DSP SHD Studio and get it hooked up. May be a bit, but I will come back here... | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. Thank you everyone, today I was able to locate a Wireworld Micro Platinum Eclipse 8 XLR digital cable on the used market. I think this will be a good choice as I have and trust Wireworld products, which I have owned for over 20 years. | |
| Any experience with Mini DSP SHD Studio in 2 ch system? @djones51 I do not have subs. | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. @soix I am, this one is on the list now. ->>Wireworld micro platinum eclipse 8 XLR https://www.suncoastaudio.com/products/wireworld-micro-platinum-eclipse-8-balanced-digital-audio-cable | |
| Any experience with Mini DSP SHD Studio in 2 ch system? @fuzztone Are you referring to the streamer in the Mini DSP unit? Well anyway, I am not up to speed on how it works, so I wanted to just use the streamer I have, but I can look into that part of it later. I haven't been at this end of it (streami... | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. @ghdprentice Would this one be a good one? https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649878442-transparent-audio-high-performance-digital-link-75-ohm-1-meter-394-length-rca-cable-like-new/ | |
| Suggestions for a digital cable. @soix Any reason for the 1.5 Meter vs shorter ones? And thank you for the suggestion, I'm aware of this cable but was skeptical vs the D60. It's been around for many years. | |
| What Digital to Digital Converter Do You Use? Why? I have the Dinafrips Hermes with I2s into the Venus II DAC. With the Hermes installed 2 things stand out. The soundstage is 20% (estimated) larger wide and deeper and the Bass has much better refinement and definition. | |
| Help in deciding which tube preamp to replace my old SFL-2 Have you considered any of the VAC preamps? | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? In the early 2000's as I was making my way into Higher End Audio I replaced my OHM Walsh 4's with a pair of Unity Audio Fountainhead Signatures and they really moved me. I used a Musical Design 100 WPC Amp with them. I kept those until a few years... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II @ozzy62 For me I am connected via AES/EBU from a CEC TL1x CD transport and via Coax from a dedicated streamer Cambridge CXN V2. ( Orchid AES/EBU and Illuminations D60 coax.) | |
| Denafrips Pontus II vs Venus II I have the Venus II and a Hermes combination. I use the Tubulus Argentus I2s between them. I cannot comment on the comparison between then Pontus II and Venus II as I have never compared them. I have removed the Hermes from the system when doing s... | |
| Has anyone bought the Psvane Acme 300B Vacuum Tube? Thanks, my issue is that I need 2 matched quads ( 8 total tubes) for my VAC Ren 70/70 amp so if I can find something good and reasonable that would be great. There are also different levels of the Psvane 300 B's. Anyone try the Gold Lion PX300B? |
