| Shorter speaker runs or shorter IC Runs...Which is the better set up and why? If the components adhere to the balanced design, then using long XLR's have no effect upon sound quality.Keeping the speaker cables short, say under 6-8 feet, would be the best way to keep costs down, and minimize effects from the cable itself.B | |

| Spotify and incoming sampling rates........ One of the reasons for going with the Mini is that I am having issues with using Spotify and Deezer through the Bluesound App,Bluesound has been very helpful, but can't replicate the problem on their side, and Spotify runs as a separate app on Blu... | |
| Are manufacturers having discussions removed from Audiogon if they turn negative? Gentlemen and Ladies,It is this kind of banter that gets threads deleted.I know some posters can post something that gets your kickers in a twist, but, think before you post. Most times, just using a logical retort can put them in their place.We a... | |
| Spotify and incoming sampling rates........ If I read you correctly, you might want to look at a Bluesound Node.You can either use the inboard DAC or output to a DAC of your choice.I use the Node with an Ayre Codex, and have nothing to complain about.I am also in the process of getting Sam ... |
