| My final table , hopefully ! @communique1 cool looking tables I checked out their site, any idea the pricing? | |
| Climbing the Preamp ladder How about this:https://www.audiogon.com/listings/tube-jadis-jp-15-2016-09-15-preamplifiers-t5l0y5No affiliation with the seller but Jadis has a great rep for sound quality and looks like a great deal especially if you're looking for a bit more war... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @sbank Spencer I have not compared ethernet to wifi, my modem is in my office it would be about a 30 foot run of cable to wire up the Aries which to me sort of defeats the purpose of its functionality. My Synology NAS is hardwired to the modem/rou... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @ghosthouse there are only two wireless bands available to everyone 3.4ghz and 5ghz the 3.4 is the "legacy" network so to speak and carries much more traffic. Not all devices are 5ghz compatible but the Aries is as is your iphone. When you look fo... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @ghosthouse congrats! Setup was very easy should not take long at all plus Auralic has a good support staff who answered a few questions I had quickly. It sounds fine with the stock power supply, one thing I would recommend run it on the 5ghz ban... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @sbank Great looking room and system thanks for sharing and love the title! That's some badass looking power supply you have for the microRendu, similarly the Sbooster dwarfs the little Aries 10x5x3 and 4 pounds where the Aries is like two cd's st... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @sbank do you output the Sonore to a DAC? Looks like the output is USB only. I had my DAC, Yamamoto YDA-1, before I had a streamer so needed something with an RCA spdif output. I've added the Sbooster power supply to the Aries, $370 from Acoustic ... | |
| Two DACs for one system? What is your cd player? I think perhaps what folks are telling you is your cd player, and your Bluesound Node might both benefit from a better external Dac. You could then plug both your sources into that Dac and reap the benefits either streaming... | |
| Last CD player? To me the best allocation of resources would be to buy a high quality DAC, this would improve the quality of the 588 and give you the flexibility to listen to files and other sources through it. | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup rbstehno is correct, ideally you want your NAS drive or music server elsewhere, my NAS drive is in my office and I listen in my listening room. And that's interesting info on the Lumin app I may have to check that out. One thing about the Lightnin... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @ghosthouse yes it decodes all those files from a NAS. | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @ghosthouse yes it plays ALAC this is cut and pasted from the Auralic website: The Tesla platform has a calculation ability of 25,000 MIPS, more than enough to decode a vast spectrum of audio formats, including AAC, AIFF, ALAC, APE, DIFF, DSF, FLA... | |
| Advice on best upgrade path for a Mac Mini setup @ghosthouse I am using an Auralic Aries Mini streaming files from a Synology NAS no computer needed except an ipad or iphone for remote control. The Aries Mini is around $500 and I think I paid between $5-600 for my NAS that price including two 4... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Charlie Hunter- Everyone Has A Plan Until They Get Punched In The Mouth | |
| Why the lack of Virtual System postings? @sbank you are absolutely right and that is my main complaint also I wish Audiogon would listen to us. |
