| Do I have to use a streamer/renderer to play music from an NAS? kumakahn the Squeezebox is a streamer/renderer it sends the digital signal to the Dac. That is how most streamers work I have an Auralic Aries Mini my Synology 214-play is connected to my modem/router and communicates wirelessly with the Mini. | |
| Catastrophic Accident! What To Do!? Ha I was pretty sure that would be the case those amps are known to be bulletproof! Awesome outcome and thanks for the update and most of all happy listening! | |
| Do I have to use a streamer/renderer to play music from an NAS? One other thought if you did say go the Synology route you could run a digital cable from whatever device you have Disc Station Manager on, laptop or whatever, to the dac in your preamp. You may need a usb to coax converter unless your preamp has ... | |
| What area or country do you live in ? @bander I'm pretty sure i know more ex-Detrioter's than from any other place in the US! Having friends in the Bay area I would say you made a wise move. :) | |
| Can 200$ IC cable bump 2k$ Audio Note cable? @shkong78 you are totally right and I run AN-J/lx's which I should have mentioned which gives me some synergy. I will look forward to your impressions! | |
| Can 200$ IC cable bump 2k$ Audio Note cable? One thing I will say about AN cables, I have the humble Lexus copper speaker cables, is to me they sound very "un-hifi". They aren't about holographic imaging they are about good tone and timbre and a natural organic sound. There is nothing wrong ... | |

| Qobuz. Ok so far through three albums on Quobuz and loving it! I think the sound quality is a bit better than Tidal and certainly at least as good. Jazz selections seem excellent thus far as well. | |
| What area or country do you live in ? Washington DC. And @firstnot love the Old 97's reference! | |

| Trouble with 20-bit HDCD That is very odd an HDCD disc should play fine on any CD transport. If you don't have HDCD decoding in your DAC you won't get the full benefit of HDCD but the disc should still play. | |
| Do I have to use a streamer/renderer to play music from an NAS? You will need something to get the music from your NAS to your stereo. I have a Synology NAS and its Disc Station Manager does have an audio player that can play on my computer. But to get the music to my stereo I use an Auralic Aries Mini connect... | |
| Qobuz. Wow so it sounds like I am now the only one who wasn't accepted? | |
| Im looking for recommendations for speakers to pair with my fisherKX200 I am not sure what you need your post title ask for speaker recommendations but you say your happy with your speakers and don't think you will be changing them? And what is you're looking to rebuild? Your Fisher? | |
