Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP?
The Circle Labs A200 is a wonderful amp for the higher end Fyne models. Great amp on my F704s.  The 704s are 96db efficient 8 ohm speakers.  Do the 704s need 100 watts? No, they can be driven nicely with 30-50 SS or tube watts.  The Circle Labs A2... 
Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP?
Dr. Paul Mills is the lead designer/director of engineering at Fyne and played the same role for Tannoy for many, many years….upwards of 35 years for Tannoy! He certainly has many designs in his arsenal and has no problem at all designing many mod... 
Shootout: Roon versus Plex, Qobuz versus Tidal: Who Won?
Qobuz and the Sense software over Roon for SQ if you use Innuos gear.  Sense is the Innuos music software and sounds much better than Roon on Innuos servers/streamers.  I am a Roon lifetime member, but Sense is all I use now.   
Innuos and Roon?
Good question.  No DSP with Sense.   Sense offers better sound quality because the software is less demanding on the Innuos hardware and designed to deliver the best sound possible with Innuos gear.  Just try it and you will love the sound 🙂.    
Innuos and Roon?
I am a life long Room member, but with Innuos gear the Sense program sounds much better.  I don’t use Roon with my Zenith 3 because of this. Sense is getting better monthly in terms of the interface and features, but still not as good as Roon in t... 
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
@arafiq I have owned all three NA Ethernet product ranges and can confidently tell you the Pro delivers much more sonically. I like the ENO products as they certainly improve the sound quality of a streaming front end. The Pro makes the ENO soun... 
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
@nyev    This Innuos link tells you all you need to do with the Purple fuse. It won’t blow.  No worries.    https://innuos.com/kb/replacing-the-fuse-on-innuos-products/  
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
With my Innuos Zenith 3 I found the Muon Pro to have more positive sonic impact than the Phoenix which I returned. As I stated many pages ago, the Innuos Zenith benefits from the SR Purple in a very special way. Much more so than other pieces of e... 
聖HIJIRI Users thread
I use the Nagomi power cords throughout my system and the Hijiri HCS speaker cables. Liked the Tchernov Ultimate USB and ICs in my system when  paired with Hijiri. Great combo!  
Why do I need a switch?
I keep reading about this fiber conversion step and it has me scratching my head vs the Network Acoustic passive ethernet options. Been there and done that with fiber and the NA passive filter and cables easily surpass the sound quality of the fib... 
聖HIJIRI Users thread
I use Hijiri HCS 25. They are perfectly balanced top to bottom. I especially like how they set the stage just a tad back compared to many speaker cables that sound a tad forward and forced to my ears.  
ENO or MUON
Contact Rich of Network Acoustics and ask. He will direct you. I had the ENO system, Muon and now the Muon Pro. Each step up is a noticeable improvement. I would go for the Muon filter combo. The combo price is lower than both separately. The cab... 
Help with V-Cap ODAM directionality in crossover
Nice job on your upgrade.  Happy all sounds great to you.  Enjoy!   
Why do I need a switch?
Hi Curiousjim, your sound will be as good as what is feed to your streamer. Noise is the enemy here.  Reduce it and hear so much more into your music.    Cost for all I mention depending on new or used is $900-$1400 or so.    
Why do I need a switch?
You will get better sound. Get a decent switch like an English Electric 8 switch. Run your cat6 into it. Place the switch near your rig so you can use a nice Network Acoustics ENO ethernet cable into an ENO passive filter up into your server. Your...
