| Different volumes while streaming Roon has volume leveling so all your music plays at the same volume. | |
| Roon 1.8 Roon has really done something special with this update. Very pleased with it sonically and content wise. | |
| Roon 1.8 Just updated to 1.8. I love it! More information to read about on each recording. I like the look also. Well done. | |
| If Cables Are Not Tone Controls... Yes cables impact tone and can certainly change the overall tone and sound of a system. In some systems the “change” is better, in others not so much. It depends on the starting sonic point of a given system and the listener’s sonic preferences. I... | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Goodness I am paying for the inside so just show it to me. This topic is simple stuff with no deep thinking needed. Agon continues to amaze me daily. I guess that is why I come back. | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling @twoleftears. I have made and sold cables with the Duelund stranded and tinned copper wire in oil impregnated copper for years. I have built ICs, USBs, speaker cables, DC cables, jumpers etc... and I like that conductor. The Helix is just heads an... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling If you feel you want to coat the naked wire, then use a Sprayon product called red insulating varnish. This is what is used to spray transformer windings to prevent shorts. It is electrical grade. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M0RQC27/ref=p... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling This is how I build my helix usb. Go to Steve’s site where he posted my pics and build instructions. Best to not have to make the cable with the 5v conductor if possible. Many dacs supply their own clean 5v internally for the usb input. Some ... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling I think silk may well sound even better than a Teflon tube. Don’t know for sure, but seems reasonable. I plan on making the exact same copper usb cable with a Teflon tube and also silk. Right now the nude VH Audio 18 gauge copper in cotton sound... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling More listening to these nude VH Audio copper conductors in my usb cable has me shaking my head. My goodness this is sounding great! Darn....I have to strip my ICs and put the nude VH & Neotech positive conductors in silk, cotton or Teflon tubi... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling I built a usb cable with the VH Audio 18 gauge solid core copper conductors on the data conductors. The foamed Teflon insulation was stripped off. I placed the bare wire conductor into a cotton jacket. I twisted the individual cotton covered data ... | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Tekton uses point to point crossover construction. This is very good. They use air core inductors. This is good. They use film caps, not electrolytics for the most part. This is good. The crossover design is also very innovative and effective. Thi... | |
| Puritan Audio 156 or 136 vs PIAudio UberBuss Wig, I am building a helix power cord for the Puritan 156. Did you find it better than the stock cord? | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Could not disagree more with Doug. Not interested in debating my experience and observations 😊. Too funny.If one knows a great deal about parts, layout, builds DIY gear, then we know what to look for. This is especially true with tube electronics.... | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Won’t buy a piece I can’t see the insides of. Never. Most import to me as I must see both the parts and build quality. |
