| Quad 303 Looks like they are doing the natching pre amp as well and have a Integrated in the works. I have the Artera Stereo amp now for a couple years. | |
| Rogue Dragon Tube Recommendations Yep. Find out what the Stock Tubes are then contact Andy's Tube Services and be prepared to tell him what your looking for. He ain't easy to get holt of but its worth it. My Mullards from him have been valving for years. | |
| Streamers under $1500 @romad Nice that you got satisfaction out of the Sonos device. They dont get the consideration they deserve around here. If you decide to tinker and have yet to check out ROON fire up a server on a PC/Mac. Should see the SONOS strait away on... | |
| Streamers under $1500 Actually that is a good point. What DAC are you currently using? | |
| Streamers under $1500 I will have to chime in again. Although I don’t have any direct experience with the Cambridge Audio streaming solution, I did recommend the CA integrated to a friend. He can bluetooth to it and use a hard wired usb from his iPAD. I sold him a pair... | |
| Streamers under $1500 I still have and enjoy my Wyred4 Sonos in office system Yep I got an ancient ZP90 W4S moded unit on a secondary system as a ROON endpoint. Picked up a used Nordhost Purple Flare Power cord and Audioquest Carbon digital interconnect for it yea... | |
| Streamers under $1500 The Airlense needs some type of streaming server like ROON ,DLNA (e.g.Adirvana) ,Tidal Connect. Bryston BDP-2 can be found for <$1k, BDP-3 for ~$1.8K But I doubt your gonna like the software interface as its purdy spartan. Que the Blue Sound ... | |
| New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? I just purchased some entry level power cords from PS Audio for my sources and pre. Upgraded the receptacle and then sourced good parts and assemble my own amplifier Power Cord. I didn’t even try to figure out if it made a difference. If you have ... | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. I also have an older ZP90 that would probably work for you but you would need to use the S1 app to control it, which is still available BTW. | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. Let me know if you decide to take up @dougsat suggestion. I think I have on old appleTV box I could part with for $30. It do gots the optical out. | |
| New SS Integrated vs fix Krell 400xi I dont know how the Hegel matches up with your Totems but I demo’d the little Hegel Rost in my system with a pair of Focal 926s and was impressed enough that if I ever move to an integrated Hegel will be at the top of the list. I would describe th... | |
| How to get AirPlay into my older system. Have you tried using any of the other Sonos Ports to see if they drop out on your main system? I have older ZP90s that I use in secondary systems that I picked up off craiglist for like $50 each. | |

| Speakers, floor standing or Bookshelfs I have been wondering the same. Got 150W now with two full range towers and a RELT9x. Room is 12 X 24 roughly I been wondering if a couple of Dynaudio Heritage Specials with the REL would be enough. Image and staging would be the goal. The... | |
| Great network streamers with only USB outputs I'm thinking my budget is around $1500-$2000usd BDP-3 on USAM for just shy of $2K. |
