| Ethernet Switch- what's the point? @recklesskelly "Fiber and be done." Why does fibre not need a switch? I have fibre and am thinking of getting one until your post. Thanks in advance. Jon | |
| MQA actually tested My original post was that I was listening, or "using my ears to judge" as you so eloquently put it, to MQA files compared to my own FLAC collection and noticed a marked difference in that the FLAC was much richer and had better extension. The mea... | |
| would innuos mk3 streamer benefit from network filter You can tweak the Settings for better sound :- Go to Settings -> Audio -> Select low latency -> Advanced Settings -> Compact music library database -> Clear queue cache | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 For a read out of curiosity, the Stereophile review of the Audio-GD is now out on their website. Provides insights on other dac’s. | |
| Esoteric N-03T streamer with Roon or ? It is interesting that the app plays a significant role in SQ. It is quite established that Roon, Soundstream or other third party apps differ in SQ depending on one’s set-up. That said, the in-house Innuos app for my Zenith server beats all oth... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Beware of Audio GD. I had two of them. The last one would not play DSD as announced. After 40 messages with the omner, he said he would refund me. So I sent the DAC to China. But the Chinese customs held it up and wanted to charge import duties. ... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 The 10 Audio review was for the standard version and Stereophile reviewed the HE version which has an upgraded power supply that adds about $1200. Not sure if the upgraded power supply would impact the difference in SQ between upsampling and... | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Found another review. Big difference is the reviewer here prefers upsampling while Stereophile prefers NOS. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 Sorry guys, I read it from a subscribed copy. It is not on their website. | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 I have just read about the $5,000 Audio GD R-7HE Mk2 dac in the latest issue of Stereophile and it took my breath away. Included in the review is a very good comparison with the sound of the Holo May, Denafrips Terminator and Mola Mola Tambaqui. ... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE I agree with @lalitk that a well mastered recording in any format would sound excellent. @brandonhifi It would be fair to compare the same master recording amongst all formats and come to your own conclusion as to how your money would be next w... | |
| Jay’s Audio CDT3-MK3 wins over Aurender W20SE I am afraid you are comparing apples to oranges. Playing a CD off a transport should be compared to playing your burnt CD flac files, rather than with streaming. There are too many variables associated with streaming like speed and bandwith pecul... | |
| Innuos Zen MK3 vs Aurender N100 I have had both in my system and the Innuos Zen Mk 3 is on a whole other level better than the N100 in every sonic metric. If you can, try to compare both in your system before deciding as with any new component in the chain, it is all system-dep... | |
| Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon? @grannyring,I downloaded the new firmware and app yesterday to my Zen Mk 3 and I have to agree with everything you say, especially in offline mode. Cheers! | |
| Innuos: A Cautionary Tale. @anzaanimalclinic,"The new 2.0 software is free and sonically leagues better than Roon. Its just crazy how much better it sounds. It makes Roon sound like chalk on a chalkboard. I get the heebie jeebies thinking I used to use Roon."Thanks for t... |
