| Which PreAmp for Marantz PM KI Ruby Preamps are mostly for switching. No telling if you have any purpose. As a buffer they can improve sound. Or not. | |
| Sony SCD-777ES, Oppo UPD-205 or Marantz SA-KI Ruby I would not put any money into a drawer loader. Done with them. Do what makes ya happy. | |
| Has anyone noticed Qobuz sounding a little fatter in the right channel? Don't trust your ears unless calibrated. You CAN trust leds. | |
| How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?” She’s the cannabis hag. A little dab ’ill doya. If he can’t get blasted without raising a stink he’s in the wrong century. | |
| Do I need a dac Roon will not improve your wallet. Some report that it comparatively hurts the sound quality. I didn’t notice that, but it is not for me. I have never read that it improves ANY SQ. An external DAC could be worse or better depending on your taste... | |
| How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?” Waiting For Columbus is good. Dissimilar to when I saw ’em at the Riviera. Excellent point that the live PA mix was/is mono. Unless you are fifth row seats like I got for ZZ in ’74, that’s all you hear at a reinforced show. The point is why would... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 and Node2i with Oppo Sonica DAC It will sound as good as an average CDP with better than a Bluesound, which is almost all of them. Happy hunting. | |
| How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?” Big difference between live and studio recordings. Most recordings were not mastered to sound live. More likely to sell, for a car, jukebox, boom box, Echo etc. The recording industry started off mono which could NEVER sound live unless you lost ... | |
| Has anyone noticed Qobuz sounding a little fatter in the right channel? Sounds like a DAC problem. Try Pink and Inharmonic Noise into whatever meter/leds you got. Probably impossible to find a tech that can balance it. I sent my second R2R (Panasonic) to the factory service for that in the 60's. A month later came b... | |
| Vinyl Newbie - So Many Questions! 1. Don’t know yours but my platter is so heavy I wrecked the belt within a year. I got a reflex clamp and give it a twist before powering up. Still on the second one 35 years later. Belts are cheap. 2 now are less $$ than 1 then. 2. LP pressing q... | |
| Replacement DAC with USB in, XLR outs All Denafrips to my knowledge do that. Pick your poison. No remote so I wouldn’t want one personally. I'd prefer a RME AD12. | |
| Hum/buzz from VM740ML cartridge Sorry, foreign to me. As an aside, why digitize vinyl? 2 wrongs don't make a right. I used to do it before lossless streaming. Now if it's not available that is a good excuse to cue it up. | |
| Never Spend More On Cables Than Your Equipment Cost$$$$$$$$$$ More? | |
| For lovers of the 1961 West Side Story soundtrack lp. For sure tablejockey, the OP can get a much better selection and credits at Discogs. For WSS please also consider the 2009 New Broadway Cast WSS tracks The original 1957 Bernstein Conducts WSS ain’t too shabby either. For covers I like 1996 Richi... | |
| preamplifier after preamplifier? Preamp? Overkill. Just insert one of these.to the sub feed. Then you have RC at the listening position. I do. All else is blather including 2 remotes, har har funny. I've got TV, cable box, BluRay, AVR, HiFi pre amp, DAC, SHD Studio selector,... |
