| Need your recommendation on a 5 or 7 channel amp Bryston 9BST | |
| What DAC to get? Denafrips ARES ii R2R DAC. $800 | |
| CD Player Recommendations… I just bought a used Rage Apollo (original version) at $200. Good SQ. I still have a lot CDs so I guess I still need a spinner. | |
| Spotify HiFi imminent? More competition is always good for consumer. I want DSD streaming. | |
| Inexpensive, neutral-to-warm sounding SS headphone amp? Schitt Asgard ii, class A Massdrop THX AAA 789Audeze Decard DAC/AMP class A | |
| Denafrips Ares 2 for AVR center channel application ?? Denafrip DAC has problem with netflix and other streamer. The sound is lagging scene. You better just use a 5.1 7.1 AV receiver for video. | |
| I am no longer getting MQA? Tidal is not bad. No need of Qubuz. | |
| I am no longer getting MQA? 44.1k/16bit sound good enough. MQA is folded into 44.1k/16bit which is no worse than Red Book. If your system is capable of doing 192k/24bit, why bother use MQA. Just go Qobuz. | |
| SACD Transport Rocomendations It coverts DSD into PCM in transport before transfer to outboad DAC. Not the best solution. It is better to do DtoA internally. Delta-Sigma DAC is very good to decode 1bit DSD file. | |
| SACD Transport Rocomendations SACD player won't pass digita signal due to copy right protection. You will need an SACD player. | |
| Can we talk about Qobuz for a minute SACD 9/10LP 9.5/10CD 8/10Qobuz 8/10Tidal 7.5/10Sportify 6/10A good SACD/CD player system is still better than streaming. | |
| What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”? too many DAC. I have Oppo205 , Denafrips Ares ii and Topping D90. All sound good. It's the music not the DAC that make the sound good. I won't waste my time and money for DAC. Rather spend time listen to good music. | |
| How many of you are digital only systems? 100% digital 20 years ago. Now going Qobuz HiRes streaming. | |
| New Topping D90SE DAC I like my D50s. I power it with 5V battery pack and backgroud is very dark. I like the sound quality of D50s. | |
| I Mac or Streamer for source? or is there a difference? A Mac Mini M1 would serve your streaming purpose very well. |
