Dick's / Dave's picks Just got dropboxed the 78 box set, going to take a while to download it but will do it overnight if I can and give it a listen tomorrow. | |
Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC rinpoche for a purchase of this magnitude any good store should let you do an in-home audtion, I assume the store is local to you? Perhaps the owner can bring the amps over and at least do an audition with your speakers if he won't lend you an amp... | |
Auralic Aries Mini vs Bluesound Node ll vs Sonos Well I just sprang for an Auralic Aries Mini found a nearly new one here with an ssd drive installed for a good price it arrives tomorrow. No issues with my Sonos except for one, the 2.4ghz network here, downtown DC, is massively crowded leading t... | |
Whats playing on your system today? Phish 9/14/99 Boise ID | |
End of the line products. My Deja Vu preamp and amp and Yamamoto Dac would all qualify. I’ve had my speakers also for 9+ years original JMlabs Micro-Utopias, but can’t say I won’t replace those eventually. | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Maxima95 the Cerious website was setup before they started selling direct so that's why its hard to order from there. I would recommend sending Bob a message through the Audiogon system and see if he responds quicker. He's posted in this thread so... | |
Dick's / Dave's picks Listened last night very solid overall, but much preferred 7/16 over 7/17 that Playin>Cosmic Charlie>Spanish Jam chunk is really great and very melodic for a Playin jam. | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables As Bob says he re-terminated my speaker cables for free and got them back to me in a week AND didn't charge me for the work or for shipping! This is a great guy who cares about his customers! | |
Dick's / Dave's picks Just got it dropboxed to me will download it overnight. | |
Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Guys as stated above Bob is basically a one man operation but don't worry he is utterly reliable and responsive. And indeed it seems this thread has contributed to a, much deserved in my opinion, uptick in order for Bob. Knowing him he will probab... | |
Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications? @grannyring Roon looks interesting I use, and like, Sonos but really only use it for Tidal and streaming my own music. Roon might be a better option for me but can it be configured wirelessly? The only example given on the Roon site is with an ap... | |
Synergistic Red Fuse ... @charles1dad thanks and you're right I'm blessed to be busy and have a job that I love! And finally logging some listening this morning Bob Marley & the Wailers 10/30/73 at The Record Plant in Sausalito CA, I feel better already :) | |
Low volume on turntable?? @hockey4496 I would imagine something like this Rega Fono for $250 would do the trick and be great bang for your buck. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/phono-rega-fono-mm-2016-04-06-preamplifiers-94804-richmond-ca | |
Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications? Nice system for a student! I am a big believer in Tidal I think it sounds fantastic and indeed pretty indistinguishable from cd's in my system. I was always finding myself antsy and dissatisfied listening to stuff on Spotify so for me Tidal was re... | |
Synergistic Red Fuse ... My preamp leave the tubes lit in standby mode then all the way on when I flip the switch. The only way to turn it off totally is unplug it which I never do. It uses tubes up more quickly, I retube about every 12-18 months, but it sure does sound g... |
