| My next Coax / SPDIF after Green Hornet thiefofflight the Jorma has great natural warmth without obscuring detail, as far as bass extension it seems quite full and extended but tough to compare. I was using different speakers when I had the Green Hornet, Focal Micro-Utopia's then Audio ... | |
| Audio for the Young - Noho Sound Looks like a cool shop. I saw a less ambitious cool shop in Paris last month lots of turntables, some cool looking speakers, lots of cool looking retro MCM consoles and bluetooth devices. A few small form amps from folks like Rega and Micromega. L... | |
| My next Coax / SPDIF after Green Hornet I currently am using the Jorma Design digital cable and it sounds fantastic, midrange magic in spades, organic sounding and properly extended. They pop up used on here from time to time in the $500 range if you see one I recommend grabbing it.I pr... | |
| Time for an all in one streaming solution Auralic recommends a wireless connection though you can certainly run it wired, Aurender is wired only I am pretty certain. I've never heard the Cambridge before a friend has Aurender and it sounds fantastic, of course it's a fantastic sounding al... | |
| HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ??? @hifijones your nickname is very apt. :) | |
| Time for an all in one streaming solution I think adding a streamer to your Chord DAC is the way to go, I run the Aries little brother the Mini into an outboard DAC with great success. It also makes a certain amount of sense to me to keep the analog stage of a DAC separate from even more ... | |
| CD player just tanked. Absolutely try the Aux input and if it's the CD player it's likely not worth getting repaired unless it's something easy and cheap to fix. | |
| BUYERS, What Issues have you had with Sellers and Listings that Prevent you from Buying? A good thorough description of the item for sale in both words and photos. In terms of photos you have to post a pic of the back of whatever you are selling. If you're selling speakers don't only take pictures with the grills on we need to see the... | |
| Help with streaming Tidal's Master tracks I also would agree with ghosthouse, not that MQA encoded recordings can’t sound better but that the initial recording quality and subsequent mastering matter vastly more than the sampling rate. And to answer the question on the Bluesound, it doesn... | |
| Pros and cons of leaving your DAC on 24/7 My DAC is tubed and the manufacturer still recommends leaving it on 24/7 and I do, unless I leave town for a week or more. | |
| Dac Technology Mature? @maplegrovemusic It's not about being cool, there is a lot more to a DAC than simply D to A conversion. A good DAC needs a good solid power supply and good analog output stage to truly sound good. Any designer would tell you that, and frankly that... | |
| Dac Technology Mature? Hey my 20, 23 actually, year old DAC sounds just fine thanks! Love that old R2R technology, wedded to a robust power supply and tubed analog output stage of course. | |
| Dac Technology Mature? +10000 @melbguyone fantastic response! | |
| Spotify vs other streaming services I signed up for email alerts from Quobuz maybe 6 months ago and have not gotten a single alert. I will believe they are coming to the US when they arrive. | |
| HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ??? I agree a good price and a good ad can sell stuff very quickly. Also Will you make great looking amps, never heard one so can't comment there, but perhaps not so well known. Maybe more tech info or reviews from satisfied customers would help? Als... |
