Do i belong here I think the OP has a Logitech Squeezbox. It's a few year since they made them.If you want an inexpensive DAC, you should look at the Schiit Bifrost Multibit. Though they are made in the US, they are shipping wordwide.Maybe look on Hifi Shark to se... | |

Would I be crazy to swap B&W 800 series for Klipsch RP series? (804S VS RP-260F) @tomic601 ,The OP will probably get a better price by selling here or US Audio, in my opinion.B | |
Transparent Musicwave Super speaker cables, 12 ft length @oldschool,Everything you change will make a difference. Whether it is positive change, or worth it monetarily, is the rub.I notice you have a lot of AQ cables. Is there any reason why you are using the Transparent?Bob | |
Stereo Subwoofer Pairing I hate to hijack the tread, but noble's post has me scratching my head.How do you hook up 3 or more subs to a stereo amp?I have 2 2wq's and stack spades on the amp, but when you go to 3 subs, how do you connect them? Or, are you using a HT amp?Bob | |
Would I be crazy to swap B&W 800 series for Klipsch RP series? (804S VS RP-260F) Emig, you can get an idea of prices by looking at Hifi Shark's sold listings.As far as speakers, I have heard B&W's and like their sound. The Klipsh are loved by many, though I haven't listened to them since the 70's and they were the huge Cor... | |
Bi Wiring for speakers question +1 Hifiman. Keep it simple Will. The AQ GO 4 is a reasonably priced cable and should not cost a fortune to do a true biwire. Just try to keep the lengths equal and as short as practically possible. And, add a little wiggle room for minor adjustmen... | |
Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed @bondmanp That's good to hear. Was the packaging damaged on the amps when you received them?-Like somebody dropped it?If you don't go the double box route, at least have him get some triple wall cardboard boxes. Those Home Depot double wall boxes ... | |
Best Speakers with a DNA-1? @ctsooner ,I think I will consider something like what you described. Now that I am basically using streaming to listen to music, I really don't need a full preamp.Does this Memory Player allow you to use it a DAC, in addition to CD player?B | |
Best Speakers with a DNA-1? @ctsooner ,Why do you need/want the LSA? I haven't heard about these before.And, I think 'McCormicks' might be an ethnic slur. ;) B | |
What other streaming services do you recommend besides Tidal? I use Tidal and Spotify. I really don't notice a significant difference, but Tidal is a bit cleaner sounding. I like Spotify because it has a super inclusive catalog (Tidal is more for contemporary music), and it has an easier interface for findin... | |
Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed Hmm, do you think it is worth it? Will the repair cost that much?Knowing how these things play out, I bet UPS will blame the amp builder for not packaging correctly. Though I never had an issue of a box being so roughly treated that the internals ... | |
Shahinian Obelisk vs VandersteenTreo Tomic, you are one lucky guy.-Retired and owning the M-7 amps. Sheesh...Bob ;) | |
Best Speakers with a DNA-1? @offnon57 ,I live on Long Island, too. I suggest contacting John Rutan at Audioconnection(his name here on Agon, too).He sells Vadersteen and is knowledgeable and a great guy to boot.He is in Verona, NJ which isn't too far from the GWB. If you tim... | |
