| REL .LFE input Have you tried this: https://relsupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004649588-How-do-I-stop-my-subwoofer-from-humming- I just got two T/5x subs and got them set up no issues, that doesn’t help you but the rca trick on the webpage abo... | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 +1 @gkelly. Spending a little more to get what you want is usually a good thing. I will say though that having just bought two subs I would move down the chain and split the budget to get a pair, or buy the s510 and plan on budgeting for another t... | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 I just purchased a pair of REL T/5x subs, they are fantastic. I have a small listening space so the T7 or T9 would likely be a better match for you. The T7 is within your price range the T9 is about $1000 over (for a pair). The Neutrik Speakon con... | |
| Help installing SSD in Auralic Aries G2 @davelarz how did it go? | |
| Tidal or Qobuz I have subscriptions to both but use Tidal most often. I don’t notice any difference in quality for the most part. I think Jay is correct it matters which song/album you are listening to. Tidal is getting rid of MQA and replacing them with FLAC... | |
| Interesting video on cables @deep_333 I’m not quite sure how to respond to your advice. I don’t think I can take it seriously if you think that the Fritz stand mounts (I refer to them this way cause at their size they really aren’t bookshelf speakers) are dinky lil speakers... | |
| I2S cable recommendations Thanks! I’m excited to get it set up! | |
| I2S cable recommendations Thanks! That's exactly the advice I'm looking for, I just need somewhere to start. I've read exactly the same thing you did about I2S cable length so I think starting with a $7-6" cable will do the trick for now. | |
| Interesting video on cables @helomech I agree it’s not an apples to apples comparison since they are two different applications (which I think I addressed in the conversation) but I disagree that cables don’t matter. The quality of copper or silver or whatever conductive ma... | |
| Interesting video on cables @vthokie83 Thanks for all the great info. Sounds like you were on a similar path with respect to DAC/DDC decisions. I think I'm leaning more toward the Hermes but will send Alvin a message and see what he says. | |
| Interesting video on cables @soix I have an MA8900 integrated, the Denafrips Pontus II 12th Anniversary, the speaker cables are Vogue Audio Silver Strand cables, OSD Aurum power cables for the DAC and the integrated and Fritz Rev 7 SE speakers sitting on 24” sand filled spea... | |
| Interesting video on cables Ha! I just looked at the Denafrips DDC lineup and i meant to say Hermes not Gaia. @soix your link sorted that mistake out thanks! | |
| Interesting video on cables @soix I love the Pontus, it is a great DAC.Thanks for the links and advice. I was thinking I needed to go middle of the lineup for the DDC since the Pontus is kind of in the middle but good to know the Iris might be worth checking out, especially... | |
| Interesting video on cables @soix, it’s all good. I did hear a significant improvement when I switched from my MA8900 internal DAC, connected to my Mac via USB, to the HiFi Rose. The Rose was a little glitchy so I returned it and bought the Pontus II 12th Anniversary DAC. ... | |
| Interesting video on cables @soix the quote from my post made me realize I'm was not clear in what I was attempting to say. I did not intend to state that the Thunderbolt cables in the video were at all similar to audio specific cables. When I said that the "principle" app... |
