Streamer/Server to replace Innuos Zenith @jmphotography Did you purchase another unit? Just curious what you decided on. | |
Streamer/Server to replace Innuos Zenith Love my Innuos Zenith with the new Sense software. I have no issues and the sound is great. The new Roon 1.8 also sounds good on the Zenith. I find Roon 1.8 now sounds better than the previous version and really on par with Sense now. Two good opt... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers It is also important to remember, wether golden ears, a chef, or even a sound professional, we are each unique and can hear things differently. We have subjective sonic preferences and particular auditory sensitivities that cause us to focus in on... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers @prof Your experience with Townshend is yours alone. Share specifically how they were used etc… When you do this we all benefit. Nothing in audio is absolute. A product works wonderfully in one situation and not another for a host of reasons, some... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers Sure. You don’t understand nor have any direct experience with Townshend under electronics, so in the end your comments fit that “pigs wings” statement more accurately. This gets so tiresome. This should be a place to share actual experiences, not... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers @facten I will respond to you more fully once I listen more. If you do not have the five upgraded and very heavy Lundahl chokes, then the 4 A Pods are best. My early impressions are the Pods sound more balanced top to bottom, have a better sense o... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers Update. I placed three B Pods under the dac. Two under the heavy side with the trannys and chokes and one on the lighter side. Now the Pods are just under 2 inches high meeting the 30% compression rule. The unit now moves more freely when touched.... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers @tvad I have not tried those. I have long been interested in the HRS couplers. I have 5 B Pods under my Circle Labs A200 Int Amp. They are 2 inches in height. Amp weights 44 pounds. I have 4 B Pods under my Mojo Audio Evo dac. They are almost 2.5 ... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers I placed Townshend Pods under my integrated amp and dac yesterday. ( Mojo Audio Evo dac & Circle Labs A200 int amp) Really enjoying the sonic improvement over IsoAcoustics products. Putting the tech arguments to the side for a moment, these To... | |
Diy dc blocker, net filter, auto on, soft start, ... solution using boards Puritan power conditioner, the 156, has DC blocking on all outlets and is a world class conditioner at the same time. | |
Diy dc blocker, net filter, auto on, soft start, ... solution using boards This is a great one that I used several times. They also sell high current ones and many other options. I have also purchased the high current DC blocker built in a case. Great products. https://www.atlhifi.com/shop/bare-pcb/pcb-for-dc-trap-block... | |
Quantum Science Audio Thread Funny you believe one person’s experience, but decide not to believe the 10 others that hear the improvement. Strange. | |
Electrolytic capacitor replacement This is for an amplifier. I have replaced those Solen caps before. I have never liked Solen caps however. They are OK in a power supply, but they are slow and dull sounding. Why not Clarity CSA? | |
Critical listening and altered states @mikelavigne I will buy the CD and rip it. I had some friends with differing systems play the same track on Qobuz and Tidal. Same popping result. The distortion shut down my amp! It was at moderate listening levels. When she reaches her stronges... | |
Critical listening and altered states Too bad the streaming versions of Anna Netrebko, Sempre Libera distort terribly. Sounds like she is clipping her mic. Not sure, but not playable at moderately loud levels. First time I have heard this sort of popping/fluttering distortion when str... |
