Stream box s2 ultra vs sonore ultrarendu I looked at the Bryston and the Project Stream box s2 ultra. There weren’t many reviews on the Bryson but the Project had many favorable and a couple of product awards. So I tried the Project and with a 30 day trial I could return for the Brys... | |
Recommendation for 3' USB cable from ultraRendu to Ayre DX-5 DSD Switched from a Audioquest carbon to a basic cable I had laying around and there was no descerable difference. Still have the cheap cable in place. | |
AUDIRVANA No Support CAVEAT EMPTOR! Blindjim. Glad you mentioned this problem. I don’t need the lost money and aggravation and I appreciate you sharing. | |
Floor protection from spikes What method are you using to attach or put these items under such heavy speakers? | |
Best used DAC under $750. Jolida, now Black Ice, FX tube dac for $550. Awesome sound but no remote volume or input. Search for the Arizona audio club shootout. | |
Want a streaming device without DAC in $1K range I recommend the Pro-Ject Ultra Stream S-2 for $850. Excellent sound and adds web radio. I bought one to use while my Auraliti music streamer was getting updated and never looked back. Pair with the excellent $550 Jolida Black Ice FX dac. Don... | |

Another Analog v. Digital Thread? Not Really Although there is much discussion on this subject I enjoy both sources although I agree vinyl is special and may be closer to the music. The best thing I can say is that while listening, regardless of source, is how much I love the music. | |
CD sound quality: original pressings vs regular remaster vs MFSL, etc If you can find the titles you desire in HDCD are excellent if your player can decode them. | |
Preamp, CD player with DAC Does the Cary have controls now or is it just an amp? My Cinema 7is a multi channel amp o ly. | |
NAS Storage Stream. HELP I realize my post wasn’t worded that well but I am hoping there will be some comments on at least one or two parts of the question. | |
Phono Preamps I had the Whest two and really liked it. When I had the 2m ortofon black I also got the Ear 834p tube preamp. I played around but as most seem to do with Whest I upgraded to the p30r when I switched to a Ortofon Cadenza red for my VPI. | |
DAC / Streaming Recommendations help needed John, Sounds like a great collection of music! There are music file managers such as jRiver, etc that would be most helpful with managing the music. I don’t use one. I am still ripping my library with DBPower amp and it is only 267gigs at... | |
DAC / Streaming Recommendations help needed Do you know the resolution of the files? That’s a lot of music to manage. Is there a program associated with the music and what files are they? | |
