| Best standalone music server? @uberwaltz that won't be faster write to your computer first then transfer your files to an external drive if you want to. Writing directly will likely slow things down further. | |
| Best standalone music server? @uberwaltz I would very seriously recommend getting dbpoweramp or similar ripping software that will allow you to rip flac and not wav files. You will be grateful that you did wav files are very large relative to flac and to me at least sound iden... | |
| Metaxas Solitaire ll Amp Also check out this page for more info on your amp:http://www.metaxas.com/pages/products/solitairex.htmlThis passage seems possibly relevant: 3. OUTPUT TRANSISTOR BIASING: The SOLITAIRE has 4 pairs of output transistors and when 'biasing' the ... | |
| Metaxas Solitaire ll Amp When did you start having this issue? Have you definitely isolated it to your amp? Seems somewhat more likely perhaps a tube failing in your preamp despite it being relatively new. Try just reversing the connections between you preamp and amp and ... | |
| Best standalone music server? I ripped my cd's on my laptop using dbpoweramp it was super quick and easy, 800 cds but I did it in spurts over time. All not on a 4TB Synology NAS. I hear what you are saying uberwaltz but trust me and others, do it right and do it once. You may ... | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables @thankful I use the Graphene Extreme digital coax between my Aries Mini and Yamamoto Dac and it sounds fantastic. It handily beat the Nirvana digital cable I was using previously. That's the only cable I compared it against but all of Bob's cable... | |
| Problem with CD Baby cds https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDfsA primer on CDFS, which I'd never heard of until your post. Best option would probably be to rip the files then burn them to a CD-R unless I am reading this wrong. | |
| I'll Take "Songs About People" for $200 Mr Bojangles was written and best performed by the amazing Jerry Jeff Walker not the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band just so we are correct. And ummmm I can't believe I just corrected something Al wrote it must be upside down day! | |

| Technics SP-10MK3 Turntable and JP Jones Replacement Chip for MN6042 Agreed it is very impressive indeed! | |
| Shout out for Audio Doctor in nj gdnrbob lol there is an equipment maker T&A that’s what I assumed the OP meant. | |
| Technics SP-10MK3 Turntable and JP Jones Replacement Chip for MN6042 @roxy54 I don't understand your post or supposed astonishment. It seems eminently reasonable to me that replacing a non or poorly functioning chip with a newer more robust version would improve sound quality. Not to mention reliability and most im... | |
| Shout out for Audio Doctor in nj fin1bxn great story thanks for sharing and I agree nothing beats a good retailer with good ears! I am fortunate to live near Deja Vu Audio one of the best. And I hope you didn't hurt yourself falling on your amp that's a new one for me! |
