| Downloads Versus Streaming ’Upgrading to a mesh network and having the Pi connected directly to a node’. It’s moot point if your Pi is hardwired ethernet. Mesh networks use nodes that you place around your house. They create an improved network environment with a sing... | |
| Downloads Versus Streaming I also have Qobuz-->Bryston Pi. I also think spinning a CD on a BOT-1or playing files sound a tiny bit better and I mean tiny. Upgrading to a mesh network and having the Pi connected directly to a node and upgrading my cable reduced the margin ... | |
| Better music player alternative to Mac Air / laptop Travel similar road as @ghdprentice. Still buy vinyl .....rarely. have hundreds of ripped CDs and play them ......rarely. Stream most of the time. | |
| First Streamer... Moon Neo Mind over on USaudiomart for $750. Also a Bryston BDP3 over there as well. Bryston BDP on here for around $700 and they sound great. Bryston interface is a bit spartan but their units sound good and work as Roon endpoints as well | |
| Have a tube that gets really bright when turned on and then dims quickly one of my matched vintage Mullards does it. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 PS Audio Direct Stream around that price. Plus they have a trade in policy and try and buy. | |

| Best Way To Connect A Bluesound Node I know you said initially not much difference but do some critical listening with high resolution stream from Qobuz and switch between the analog connection (BS NODE DAC) and the digital connection (C52 DAC). Let us know the results. If I am corr... | |
| Computer updated and now Roon is blocked Best streaming move I made was moving Roon Core of an iMAC and onto a SGC ST. | |
| What speakers have you mistakenly let go and then later repurchased? Quad S-5. Been trying to find a pair again ever since. | |
| Streamer Upgrade +1 on the Mind 2. Never heard one myself but I bet its a an upgrade and you don't see them much. There are some Bryston BDPs around on USAudio as well. There is a BDP Pi over there for around $600. I have the Pi and know for a fact they make a ... | |
| Need recommendations for a streamer t sounds like what I need to do to optimize my streaming system is 1. Hardwire my streamer 2. Get a linear power supply 3. Invest in an ethernet switch 4. Consider a digital to digital converter Digital to digital converter ? | |
| Sonus Faber speakers - what's your experience? I had the Sennetto III in my house and compared them directly to Focal Aria 926. The Sennetto bested the 926s with voice and strings. The 926 were a little better at filling the room with music and a little better with rock music or should I s... | |
| Sound quality of Roon One of the unexpected benefits I discovered of ROON is that Old SONOS Zone players work as ROON endpoints. These are being aged out by SONOS and don’t work with their new eco system so they can be picked up for cheap. I have seen them on Craigs fo... | |
| Sound quality of Roon I agree with previous poster, do a trial of Roon. It's what I did. You got the BS Node and it can be an endpoint. Just make sure you got all the piece parts in place so you can eval without having to mess with hardware config during eval period. |
