| Percentage of mp3 vs FLAC on Tidal? Yes I would love some examples also I have not encountered any mp3s in about a year of streaming Tidal. | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables To add to the discussion I also think to a certain extent adding the first of Bobs power cables is a wow moment. As you accumulate them in your system the improvements become more subtle. I am running 3 Nano Sig cords first one on my preamp was a ... | |
| Experience with Tannoy Westminster Royal Gold Reference @hddg that is fantastic news congratulations on your fantastic system and your audio happiness! Can't wait to see your system pics! | |
| Art Audio Diavolo hum Agree with above, ignore ebm, time for new caps should be an easy job and should not only fix the hum but give your amp a new lease on life! And better sound as well. | |
| Anyone have a pic to show me where to replace HEXFREDS in a Cary CAD-120S? Don't do this! Find a tech in your area to do it for you. Don't risk damaging your amp or worse by attempting an upgrade yourself you are not qualified, by your own admission, to perform. Not to mention potentially tanking the resale value of your... | |
| Have ~$10-12k...what would you do? phaun16 not sure where you're located but I would recommend giving Vu at Deja Vu Audio a call http://dejavu-audio.com/index.html they are in Mclean VA just outside DC. Vu specializes in tubed gear and analog and has the best ears of anyone I'v... | |
| Percentage of mp3 vs FLAC on Tidal? There are no mp3's on Tidal to my knowledge everything I stream, and I use it almost constantly are flac. My Aries Mini always shows the file type and sampling rate and its always flac 16/44.1. This is with Tidal premium, I have no experience with... | |
| Totem Forest Signature Impressions dave congratulations! Awesome story and glad you are loving your speakers and system so much now! Enjoy! | |
| Scan Speak Tweeters OK? Here's a question, did you start noticing issues after you replaced the 7" mid woofer "a short while ago"? Or had it been happening prior to the replacement? | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Woven Hand "Blush Music". | |
| 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 ... |
