Is there a big difference in digital streaming devices? Yes pairing your streamer with a good outboard DAC will definitely be an improvement. I've not heard your streamer so can't comment on it otherwise. | |
Veterans Day Thank you to all who served and will serve! | |
Audiophiles should learn from people who created audio So why should I care if our hobby is "ridiculed", and who says that's even the case? I'm not in this for anyone but myself and my love of music. I trust my ears, I like what I like, and could care less what people think about it. | |
Thoughts on my New Rogue Rp-5 Preamp Yes correct they did say Sit-1 on them and you should be able to find used and demos no problem they pop up here all the time. | |
Thoughts on my New Rogue Rp-5 Preamp Yes it got quite loud, in a very large room. And sounded excellent overall especially considering it was just the smaller Omens playing. Best bang for the buck system I heard. | |
Thoughts on my New Rogue Rp-5 Preamp Congrats on the preamp glad your enjoying it so much! And just listened to Zu at Cap Audio Fest I really like their sound. And at 101db a slight hiss with your ear to the speaker is pretty darn quiet. I assume your next step is a tube amp or low p... | |

Please help me chose a tube preamp May I ask if there is any particular reason you've zeroed in on those two preamps? | |
Great music few are aware of. Any genre. The Asylum Street Spankers from Austin TX, part Texas swing, part vaudeville, astonishing musicianship and all acoustic. Sadly they broke up about 5 years ago, they never quite made it. Quite a few of their releases are on Tidal the rest Bandcamp. | |
Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? @daveyf Congrats on the new amps they are certainly stunning to look at I can only imagine how great they sound! There is something very special indeed about a good Class A pushpull tubed amp and good transformers are key. Obviously Jadis winds... | |
Shindo Masseto + Coincident Frankenstein versus Nagra 300i integrated essrand,Aha that explains and lot and I agree with you an active tubed preamp is the way to go, I've hear the Vosne-Romanee and Aureges and really liked them both in different systems. I would say you really can't go wrong with the Shindo route or... | |
Shindo Masseto + Coincident Frankenstein versus Nagra 300i integrated Just curious is there something about the current system you don't like? Because I see in another thread you're also looking to replace your DAC. Also may I ask what preamp you have currently? | |
