| Buying New TV Need A Soundbar Recommendation Yep, that is what sound bars are about… physical and operational simplicity. | |
| Volume Control Too Sensitive OP, I am really sorry to hear about your problem. I happily have not experienced this kind of issue… well, on a device that did not have a high range / low range switch. I have been following the thread expecting someone to chime in, “Yes, thi... | |
| Is there a DAC ranking list? OP, Congratulations on your new Bluesound. It is so rewarding when you get a big jump in sound quality with a new piece of equipment. It is what can keep you in the pursuit for a lifetime. | |
| Loki vs new streamer and new DAC. Room treatments are really helpful in getting better sound out of any existing system. Are you able to do some? Some photos under system in your user ID would be really helpful for the group in order to help. | |
| Replacement power. Ps Audio Research Reference 160m monoblocks or 320m (I gather shipping in the next couple months). You looking for an upgrade? Your musical preferences? | |
| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig I frequently listen to music in the 60db range peaks at 70db and it is completely immersive. Sometimes I’ll listen in the 70’s with peaks around 85db. | |
| What's on your Dac tonight? @artemus_5 🤣 For me Qobuz: The Universe Before Matter by Hannah Peel. | |
| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig OP, Thank you. Yes, most importantly we need to enjoy what we have! Music is such an enjoyable experience. If not retired, a great place to go and just experience the moment and forget the daily frenetic pace of life and live in the moment. Yo... | |
| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? There are lots of great amps on the market. Review that are positive are good… but after that it is the character they talk about… detailed, fleshed out… The Absolute Sound, Strereophile and HiFi+ are really good a about describing the sound in ge... | |
| Was my friend given misinformation. You gave your friend great advice. I find Best Buy a great place to buy stuff that I have researched and decided to buy… for instance my Sennheiser Ambeo sound bar from my bedroom. 24 month financing and a good price. It is great if your friend l... | |
| New to streaming question I agree. I find mastering of far greater importance than the actual resolution. Once and a while I will hear a really great recording with great dynamics… so I will check the resolution… frequently it is red book. Not always. I would pursue fi... | |
| Monstrous power cables @1971gto455ho Just so happens that I was a practicing scientist when I began my pursuit of high end audio… before graduate school. Within a year I realized that the published technical parameters were grossly insufficient to account for most of ... | |
| AudioQuest Hurricane High Current Question. @karmapolice Good question. I am thinking I would get the variable. Amps tend to be more sensitive to the PC… so you want to make sure you don’t limit the current. Not from my experience, just thinking through. | |
| Narrowing down the field (DAC wise) OP, Congratulations. I would be very happy to hear about what your impressions are after receiving it. Don’t forget you have to get a couple hundred hours on it to let the sound settle in. I have relearned this so many times… if it doesn’t sou... | |
| Homage to those who are pleased with your audio rig Congratulations. That is a good place to be. Me as well. Photos of my systems are posted as are yours. I have gone through five to seven year periods of being really happy and just enjoying the music. Then I was financial able to afford an upgrad... |
