| Another request for Streamer Transport options @mclinnguy Bypassing the STR's DAC defeats the purpose of the STR for me. I lose ARC and especially bass management. I can bypass the STR DAC if I choose but in my multi-purpose room with stand speakers and dual subwoofers, I prefer not to. The ST... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options @gkelly Thanks for the input. Curious why you use the AES/EBU input instead of USB when USB on both the Pulse and the STR has better specifications? I have corresponded with Innuos and am leaning towards the new Stream1 and Innuos suggests USB as... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options If I was consider the Innuos Stream1 to connect to my Anthem STR, how important is adding the LPS1? Next, how important is adding the PhoenixUSB module? Can my STR make use of it? PhoenixUSB Board Regenerated and Reclocked USB signal to your ... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options @deer_creek_audio My Anthems already do everything I want except streaming but thanks. @timothy468 I like the discontinued Pulse for the multiple outputs since I only need to use one at a time and can switch with the app. The Stream1 is even bett... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options I like a lot about the Innuos Pulse but when contacting my dealer was told it has been discontinued and replaced with the Streamer1. That explains why there are so many for sale on the "used" and demo market. Apparently Innuos will continue to lis... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options @devinplombier Please leave your political ranting and insults out of my thread. You know nothing about "some people" or their reasons and this is not the forum thread to find out. If you choose to purchase from Chinese owned companies, I'm not j... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options @jwillox I have multiple copies of all important files. I shot professional sports for years as a second job/hobby and still sell archived images and most of those are also in the cloud. Storage space is not an issue. Synology DS923+ with 48 TB (... | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options I like the idea of ripping CDs with a Streamer. I don't have a problem ripping on my PC but it would be convenient. I use an ASUS BW-16D1X-U External Blu-ray Drive with my PC that connects with USB 3.0 if there are streamers that would work with. | |
| Another request for Streamer Transport options @soix I assumed it was a common feature and because I currently use the STR and am adding the AVM 90 and both have very good DAC’s. I use Home Theater Bypass on the STR stereo preamp and share the FL and FR mains and two subwoofers. It would be ni... | |
| Projectors now vs 15 years ago My experience is with JVC projectors, known for their contrast ratio and deep blacks. You will want to have complete light control with dark walls and ceiling to get the most out of it. In 2011 I owned a JVC DLA-RS50, a 1080p bulb based projec... | |
| Need Integrated amplifier I overlooked the integrated preamp part. My STR is not integrated but there is an STR integrated model. https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/1922322 | |
| Need Integrated amplifier I went through this process 5 years ago. I wanted a preamp that went into Home Theater bypass mode while in standby mode so I didn’t need to do anything when engaging the AVR. I also wanted a preamp with good bass management since I share two subw... | |
| Solid state preamp with a mono switch and remote Anthem STR preamp has a Mono listening mode. The remote has a mode button and mono is selected from the menu button on the preamp. Run it pure analog or take advantage of ARC (Anthem Room Correction). Includes a decent MM/MC phono stage. | |
| DIY Speaker Kits, a good idea? There are high quality DIY speakers using top end drivers, solid cabinet plans, using competent crossover designs and components. Madisound has a few kits I have been interested in building but I don’t have the need, space, or motivation at the t... | |
| Footers under new speakers I posted before about StackAudio Auva 70 feet I use on wood floors for ease of moving due to thin felt on the bottom. Spikes are included in three sizes, select your preference, and can be added for carpet. I haven’t been able to find the forum gu... |
