| Bluesound Tech Support @llarry, Given that different streamers will utilize different protocols, I would think having your catalog backed up in it's original format (mp, Flac, or whatever) would be the best way to go, should you decide to jump ship to another streamer.A... | |
| Bluesound Tech Support @llarry,Here is a link to copying your files. I don't think they are manipulated by the Bluesound App, so you should be able to play them in any other streamer- I think.https://support1.bluesound.com/hc/en-us/articles/200387457-Accessing-the-Blues... | |
| Innuos Zenith can't connect to my.innuos @OP, Do you have any firewalls on your PC? Router settings?Do you have any extensions running on your search engine?I found my Google Adblock Plus and a couple others messed up the Innuos connection.-Hence, my use of MS Edge. And, I didn't need to... | |
| Bluesound Tech Support @llarry,I agree, it should have been handled better.In my case, after a couple of back and forths, they scheduled a TeamPlayer session, which is something they should have done for you.I know it can be aggravating, but, hey, things worked out in t... | |
| Bass sensation like a loud car system in home? @All,If the OP wants boomy bass, that is his/her option.@OP, Just looking to achieve the bass wave effect without the SPL associated with achieving it via high powered subwoofers. I don't think you will be able to achieve this without subs.B | |
| Bluesound Tech Support @OP, I understand your frustration, but...Bluesound offers a lot for not much money, so in some ways:'you get what you pay for', might be applicable.I owned Bluesound Nodes, and had issues with them. Bluesound did take some time to diagnose and co... | |
| Innuos Zenith MK3 @OP,Great that you have narrowed it down.I also own the QB 9 Twenty, and had an issue with it that Ayre corrected for free (though I didn't get free shipping to them-☹).Did Ayre say the overheating issue was the possible cause of the skipping.Bob | |
| Is 35’ and 50’ to long for RCA sub cables? @OP,You are between a rock and a hard place.I would take @audioquest4life 's rec and get a good shielded sub woofer cable in RCA. I know Audioquest makes some inexpensive sub cables that include a grounding wire-which should minimize any ground lo... | |
| Is 35’ and 50’ to long for RCA sub cables? My short answer is, Yes.Now if you could run XLR, then it wouldn't.Bob | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums - current owners opinion on the merits of this product @cantorgale,You can go to the Townshend website and see the chart listing the various weight loads each Podium will carry.You can also email them.I got mine from a dealer in England. PM me if you want to contact him.His prices and shipping, as we... | |
| "Need" Roon, Bluesound Node, or or other streamer? @ho249, I don't know if you meant having to buy dedicated equipment, but you can control Roon equipped streamers or Bluesound using the corresponding Windows app.B | |
| Maggies with a subwoofer system - optimization? Vandersteen subs would be your best way to add lower frequencies. IMHO.But, as you have a Swarm sub system, I think you would be best served by contacting Doug Shroeder ( douglas_schroeder ) here on Audiogon.I think he would have the best info fo... | |
| Quality outlets for non-audio I agree with @ebm, Leviton makes hospital grade outlets, and they weren't expensive. It is what I use now.Bob | |
| Please clear up my confusion re: meaning of "balanced" ! @stuartk ,PM or call Ralph Karsten (atmasphere).In fact, if you search the Audiogon archives, you'll find many of his posts explaining the rational of the 'balanced topography'.As you seem to have found, some equipment offers balanced input/output... | |
| "Need" Roon, Bluesound Node, or or other streamer? The Node can be used with and external DAC. I used an Ayre Codex with mine.I eventually went with Innuos, and use Roon as a system manager.The Bluesound Node is quite a buy for the money.Not knowing your system, I would say get the Node and see if... |
