| Need tube preamp recommendations please I listen to Deezer @16/44 (FLAC) with a Wadia 321 DAC and class D amp. I added a Rogue audio RP-1 to try and shave off the sharp edge. Running this for ~2 years and Just switched over to Mullard tubes. Been pretty happy with it. Wish it had Ba... | |
| What other streaming services do you recommend besides Tidal? I have used Napster, Spotify and done a trial of Tidal and Deezer at the premium level. Sound quality for 16/44 was the same for Tidal and Deezer. I like the Deezer interface better and at the time Deezer had many more millions of tracks but now I... | |
| Does anyone use hearing aids when listening to your hi-fi audio system? This is fairly recent so I will post for posterity. I have classic Noise Induced Hearing Lose (NIHL) also known as Noise Notch. One of the most significant losses are transient like cricket chirp frequencies. I remember when I first got my Oticon ... | |
| Best used DAC for $250? The is also a PSA DL3 for $296 at the Music Room | |
| Best used DAC for $250? The Music Room has 2 Peachtree Dac iTx for less than $200 and a Peachtree IDAC on Ebay for about $350. | |
| D to A converter purchase.... I gots a 321 and I like it. The 321 is also a preamp as well and I don’t think the Shiit DACs are. I normally front the 321 with a Rogue RP-1 but that is down while I embezzle money to shop for vintage tubes, so the pre in the 321 has come in hand... | |

| Can anyone recommend a great tube preamp that also has a headphone out? +1 on the Rogue RP-5. I have the RP-1 and really like it and the support has been good as well. | |
| Speakers costing range of 2500-3500 per pair I own the Aria 926 I think they come in around the $3.5K mark. I compared them in my house directly against the Sonus Faber in the same price range, The SF might have been even a few hundred $$ more. My setup is class D amplification, Tubed Pr... | |
| A lot of hype about PS Audio, deservedly so ? Just to clarify the manufacturing part. PS Audio is just down the street from my house. I been in there a couple times to purchase products and I don't think I have seen any manufacturing going on there, design and assembly yes. Correct me if ... | |
| RadioParadise streaming FLAC Good support as well. Sent a crash log last night and had response email from the developer this morning. | |
| RadioParadise streaming FLAC I just compared Peter Gabriel songs ( had to wait a couple songs before comparing). I think the Lossless sounds a bit better than my upsampled version. Getting some interrupts and the app crashed once so I think I need to play with the cache set... | |
| Newbie Looking for Advice on Streaming Music One avenue to take is getting a Sonos connect off of craigslist to get a bump start, plug that strait into primaluna . There are about 3 on Denver craigslist from $175 -$250, they should be easy to find about anywhere. That will get you bump sta... | |
| Wadia 321 DAC, anyone have any experience with it? For future reference. I picked one up for $1500 from my local dealer and I am pretty happy with it. I upgraded from a peachtree iDAC (which was a decent implementation of a Sabre). I got it primarily because of the price and the reviews about the ... |
