| I am streaming , how can I play music when provider goes down. Turntable and streamer with hard drive. I have an Innuos streamer that holds 2500 albums. You can rip (copy) from a cd or from the the streamer. | |
| What was your first record? Everly Brothers “Let It Be Me”. Played it over and over and…… | |
| Is usb reclocking necessary? I see this discussion came back to life after over 2 years. As the OP, I think I dropped the ball by not following up after trying and buying a Innuos Phoenix USB reclocker for my Zenith MK3. I found an outlet in Nashville that demos Innuos recloc... | |
| DAC contest: Border Patrol Sei or Chord Qutest? Troidelover1499 I had a similar experience as the setup used to demo a pair of speakers I bought used border patrol SEi. It was my foray back into hifi a couple of years ago. At the time I hadn’t heard other DACs so I didn’t know any better and bo... | |
| What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first? mtbiker29 Chicago is in a great area for used equipment. I live in SC and most of my gear is used and came from your region. I picked up the A3s from Kenosha WI almost new for 60% of retail. They weren’t even broken in yet. Amp from Chicago, DAC f... | |
| What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first? I have a small treated music room (14x14) and I bought Magico A3, unheard anywhere prior to. If I could be happier, I’m too ignorant to know it. However, I did attend an equipment show in Dallas last month and didn’t hear anything I wanted to rush... | |
| Just Getting Back Into Audio and Need Help Soix, I can vouch for what you said about Hegel’s built in DAC. I just got the H590 and its DAC sounds significantly better that the stand alone I had been running, which is a 3,000 unit. I haven’t tried the Hegel streaming device as I’m very plea... | |
| The best speaker cables you’ve had I’ve tried Blue Jeans, Audio Quest Granite and 1 other inexpensive cable, I cannot recall the name, before upgrading to Audio Sensibility Signature. The Owner said the AS Signature would be the last cable I would ever (want to) buy and I believe h... | |

| Ethernet and USB cables I started this 2 years ago at the out set of my return to the world of hi-fi as we used to call it, now audiophile. It’s interesting reading the comments since then because it hadn’t popped up in some time. Since then I have upgraded all my cables... | |
| Older Revel vs Newer Magicos ghdprentice equipment was questionable in my mind until I read some reviews of those with the same amp as mine. It’s only 60 w of power (Pass Int 60) but it’s 30 w of class A before going to A-B. And I’ve got good cabling that were all recently up... | |
| Older Revel vs Newer Magicos Thanks for that hanki! As you probably know, the S series is a lot more speaker than the A’s and, not insignificantly, price wise. That’s why I was thinking A3. If I bought the S5, even used, I’d probably need a new wife. 😆 However the S3, in prev... | |
| Looking for advise with selecting next integrated amp I’d have to agree with ghdprentice on the Pass Int 60. I got one 2 years ago used for 6500. That still seems the going rate on the used market. It’s got 30 watts of pure class A, is built to last and will drive most any speaker sized for home use.... | |
| What is the current retail cost of your reference system? I started from scratch two years ago because the system that I bought 45 years ago was stolen within the first year after I bought it. Raising a family and mortgage payments and everything else I didn’t bother to try again until two years ago. Wit... | |
