| CD Transport to pair with Audio Note DAC 5 - suggestions? I don’t have much knowledge of the aforementioned transports. However, I recently bought a Orchid and connected my Oppo 105 to it vis CoAx. Sounds amazing. | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio Yup the power line adaptors all crap out after some time and your left with tons of drops. Especially on HiRez. Finally gave up and had a dedicated Cat6 line run into my Roon Nucleus. Couldn’t be happier. | |
| Best DAC for around $2,500 or less MHDT Orchid. Roll into a WE396A D getter. Once you go tube you’ll never need lube. | |
| OPPO 105 as a streaming source/transport only @michaela I use my Oppo 105 basically as a transport. I was always fond the of the DAC. However when I bought my Orchid DAC I was so impressed with it I now have my Oppo running through it as well. Noticeable improvement! | |
| Anyone been able to compare the SQ of Roon Nucleus vs. MacBook Air? I have my Orchid DAC connected directly into my Nucleus via USB. Sounds sublime, no issues whatsoever. The Nucleus/Roon takes care of my streaming. | |

| O.K., downloads, streaming and more....but I still like many of my CD and SACD disks FWIW, I just bought a Orchid. I was so impressed with the SQ I connected my Oppo 105 to it. Big upgrade in sound on Redbook. | |
| The Mhdt lab Balanced Pagoda DAC @teajay keep the reviews coming. I also bought a Orchid primarily on your review and couldn’t be happier. Thanks. | |
| Oppo BDP-105D just for CDs? I thought my 105 sounded amazing. Just for an experiment I bypassed the internal DAC and connected it via CoAx to my Orchid DAC. CD’s sound twice as good. | |
| Roon (Nucleus+) Dilemma I would definitely try the Roon forums. Very knowledgeable folks there. | |
| MHDT Orchid TUBE ROLLING Can’t find it. On a side note have you trued the Mullard ECC189? |
