| Which DAC is better ? Don't be surprised if the dac in the 8805 sounds better, it would be my choice, just use Heos for your streaming and it may just be all you need. Connect both as it will be the only way to know in your setup. | |
| Pangea True Balanced Premier SE XLR? I did try the Audio Envy XLR's and power cable awhile back, they are great for the money but preferred my Morrow Audio MA4 XLR's and went with a Clarity Cable Vortex for the power cable upgrade which is just great from top to bottom. | |
| Pangea True Balanced Premier SE XLR? Got a pair in over the weekend along with the coax cable, out of the box they sound fine so far with no hint of doing anything wrong. I have them running off an external dac I'm trying out (Topping D90) so my point of reference is a bit off. I do... | |
| Wild Fires, Air Purifiers and Sound Systems The Coway Airmega is a great recommendation, I use its larger sibling the 400s in my listening room, its my endgame purifier and love it. Another great option I use in ever other room throughout the house is the Winix 5500, its comparable to the C... | |
| DACs to look at? I hope to try a Topping D90 soon seeing it uses the latest AKM chip against my Marantz 8805 and Oppo203 (transport) which I use for 2/ch daily (cd,dsd,hi/rez files, heos stream Amazon HD) with an Halo A21. I find it very satisfying and couldn't be... | |

| Parasound A21 and A21+: Significant Improvements in SQ? I have the same question and also wonder how the A21 + fairs against the JC5, Also Is the new A21+ a John Curl update? One of the two will hopefully find its way into my setup to replace my A21 which really can't fault after its many years of wond... | |
| Anyone compared Morrow Audio Interconnect cables with Audio Envy Prestige interconnects? System and taste dependent , I recently tried the O nestian XLR's from Audio Envy against my Morrow Audio MA4 xlr's and the Morrows in my setup had the better tonal definition without any part of the spectrum standing out and overall musicality an... | |
| Getting the most out of streamed video: Netflix and Plex (with NVIDIA Shield Pro?) I take it you don't or have never used a Nvidia Shield especially the 2019 version? I'm as picky as they come and its got a place in my setup for streaming why? its simply one of the best at what it does.http://https//www.avsforum.com/forum/39-net... | |
| Getting the most out of streamed video: Netflix and Plex (with NVIDIA Shield Pro?) If you're worried about the 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro size ,that's just a plus (easy to conceal as it uses Bluetooth for remote operation) as it's the King of streamers as far as I'm concerned.I run mine to my Marantz 8805 and then to my Sony 940e. T... | |
| Envy audio cables I'm trying out the O Nestian xlr's with the new terminated ends which are up against my Morrow MA4 xlr's , So far they sound great at just over 150 hrs on them but jury is still out. I also in addition to the xlr's I got the Ocean power cable to t... | |
| Are manufacturer AC cables good enough? For delivering power to the gear of which it came with ? Yes , I would at minimum put the AC3 on the Ayre and go from there after you hear how much better it can get. | |
