InnuOS Sense 2.6.0. I have an Innuos Zenith Mark 3 & tried to do the update but it froze up during the process & the unit wouldn’t boot up at all., contacted support & they were quick to respond, set up a personal time to live chat & logged into the u... | |
Best Covers So many great songs! Bonnie Raitt’s cover of John Prine’s “Angel From Montgomery” is also very good. | |
Cream — Stormy Monday Soulshine is up there w/ the Allman Bros classics w/ great guitar work & Gregg’s vocal is also outstanding. I never got why some of of Cream’s recordings are so poor. It’s a shame because the music is excellent! Their engineers must have b... | |
Integrated for Devore O/93 Might want to check out Rogers High Fidelity. As high a build quality as there is in tube amps, sound excellent, lifetime warranty! There are a few available on Audiomart and both new & used directly from the manufacturer. There are pretty ar... | |
Good Speakers for Rock and Roll Under 15K + whatever for Volti Audio Rivals. Other than some big JBL’s, old Altecs, the bigger two Klipsch’s, the Rivals will kick the most if not all of the others mentioned to the curb & sound very good doing so. They’re not crazy big or funny looking... | |
Your greatest high end audio purchase!!! Snell A - II’s in 1982 powered by a pair of Hafler DH - 200’s strapped for mono I built. Got me started on this never ending path. Basis 2500 Turntable w/ their Vector 4 arm in 2003 w/ a ZYX mc cartridge & Art Audio Vinyl 1 phono amp. Still ... | |
Using PA Speakers In A Home "Audiophile" Application! As previously mentioned, several brands like JBL, Klipsch & Altec ( in the past) offer both home & pro “PA” speakers which are very sensitive, dynamic & can play loudly while still sounding quite good without straining. Often the diffe... | |
Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? I owned Avantgarde Uno’s in 2002 & then upgrade to the Duo’s in 2004 ( or so). Their macro & micro dynamics were so much better than anything I had ever heard in anything close to their price ranges. They sounded excellent at any volume l... | |
Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice +1.5 for Volti Rivals! (. 5 for the Razz). I really enjoy mine! Of course, it’s a matter of taste. If you value the utmost in hyper detailed, bat worthy high frequency extension & a highly mirror, polished statuesque pieces of furniture, then ... | |
Will audio gear be ok in unheated house I don’t think any of that equipment will be damaged in any way. I’ve left some good quality equipment in an I heated storage unit w/ no issues at all; speakers, turntable, electronics. It’s rapid changes in temperature that can be harmful, not slo... | |
Quality of Sirius XM Sirius XM rolls off the high end substantially & overall sounds terrible in even a decent system. A Good FM signal can be much better. | |
Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti Look fine to me & in proportion with the room. Maybe put some good quality fake plants on them which you can remove when listening? Show your wife the the next system pic of the 2024 system by dj & ask her it that would be acceptable? I ... | |
Recommendation Tube Integrated Some very nice recommendations mentioned & here’s another one: Rogers High Fidelity. They’re pricey new around $15-$16K but they have two of their big amps used direct from the factory w/ full lifetime warranties. They’re very well built w/ hi... | |
How good is good enough? We all know you can get a surprisingly musical sounding system for a few thousand dollars, a really nice set up for $10K, $20K, 30K etc & if chosen correctly, amazing sounding systems for whatever you want to spend w/ not much limit. Doesn... | |
Streamer Comparison and Suggestions Mitch2 - see my earlier comment. I was probably lax on updating my Innuos Zenith but when customer support was needed to complete the task, they were right on it!! |
