| Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result? Considering the size of your room, the Rythmik FM8, JL e110 and Rel T9i are all waaaaaaay more powerful than you need. You’re literally going to have the volume on any of those subs at the lowest point possible or they will overpower your main spe... | |
| Nuforce STA200 Don't bother with the Jolida Tube fx Mk3. I had one and it isn't a good value. I'm running a NAD M51 and am very happy with it for the price I paid ($650 used). Chord Mojo are a great value at current used prices. | |
| Apple TV Streaming Sound Quality vs Streamer? audioengr | steveWhy do you say FLAC will never sound as good as WAV? My understanding is FLAC is 100% lossless. If a device were to decompress the FLAC input and place into a memory buffer which then feeds a DAC, shouldn't FLAC sound as good?And ... | |
| Music streamer with no DAC and no storage? Bluesound Node 1 (original) only has toslink optical out. Node 2 has toslink optical + coax digital output. Node 2i has 5Ghz wifi, a reportedly better sounding setup for the internal DAC, and supports Apple Airplay 2. If you don't need the faster ... | |
| What is the latest greatest USB add on device? I don’t understand all the hate on the USB Disruptor. I’ve read the computeraudiophile.com forum thread and personally I think the people on that thread that trash the Disruptor come off as complete ass***es. For $100 the USB Disruptor cleaned up ... | |
| Music streamer with no DAC and no storage? Just drop $350 on a used Bluesound Node 2. It's worth it just for the streaming capabilities. I never use the internal DAC and still think it's worth the price I paid used. | |
| Nuforce STA200 It is well documented that the STA200 is a scaled down version of the Job 225, which is based on a Goldmund reference design. | |
| Nuforce STA200 Same circuit board:https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=151000.0 | |
| Nuforce STA200 Check pictures of the Job 225 and STA200 again. They use the same circuit board with different caps, resistors, etc. The power transformers and RCA jacks are also different. | |
| Nuforce STA200 Can't help you open the case.My purchase of the amp was necessitated when one of my monoblock amps blew out. I was looking for something that was relatively inexpensive that would hold me over until I could figure out whether I was going to purcha... | |
| Recommendation for DAC needed. mzkmxcvo'rly?https://darko.audio/2016/07/not-as-the-artist-intended-google-chromecast-audio-w-tidal/ | |
| Recommendation for DAC needed. PS Audio DirectStream and Chord Hugo 2 TT are in that price range and have very good reviews as well. | |
| Nuforce STA200 A few weeks from now you might be convinced there's nothing at $500 that can compare. It is an amazing value. | |
| Apple TV Streaming Sound Quality vs Streamer? No idea regarding DSD capabilities. I've never heard a single piece of music that was DSD encoded. I have a Job Integrated amp that can decode DSD128, but I do not have any DSD encoded music to give it a try. | |
| Bluesound NODE 2 paired with Benchmark DAC 1? For the price of a used Benchmark, the NAD M51 is a significant upgrade sound-wise, and barely more expensive. |
