| Can a DAC do double duty? LOVE that the Elite player got some attention!đ Â I did have to have the âarmâ replaced as a cd came loose somehow and jammed up everything. My local guy said âit wasnât worth fixing because of costâ, and he wasnât sure he could get the part nee... | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? Thanks again and great call on the Pontus naming @soix đ! Love it!  @martinl07d I am running the Elite PD-F17-old school babyđđ» | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? Thank you @soix! No actually that's MY bad, I should have known that's what you meantđ. So both devices would then share the same inputs? Wow would have never thought that possible. That would be weird though because I have the XLR named as "Evers... | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? Thank you for the replies! Only 1 XLR cable? My processor is the Krell Foundation. What would be the best way to connect? I need the 2 XLRâs for left and right for the streamer, no? And then the RCAâs left and right from the Pontus to the Krell? | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? Thank you @cleeds! I figured it was ok, but honestly havenât heard of anyone doing it. No extra burden or no harm to the Pontus right? | |
| UPS or surge protector/power conditioner? And if UPS, recommendations please under 1K Thanks so much Erik! Appreciate all the advice and recommendations man! IGreat info! | |
| UPS or surge protector/power conditioner? And if UPS, recommendations please under 1K Thank you so much! I have read so many different things in regard to UPS', some where they say they're better than a power conditioner, some say the other way around...That's why I came to the experts here - so thank you again for the advice and t... | |
| Time, Wear, and Technological Evolution If you're happy stay put. I got into the higher end of audio 24+ years ago. I went through so many speakers until I came across Dynaudio Audience (back then it was their entry line but even that was stretching my budget). Soon as I heard them I wa... | |
| Can I use 2 different streamers in different systems through Qobuz? Thanks @mapman, I thought so but wanted to reach out and check with all the experts here to confirm. Thank you @wsrrsw I figured that as well, which is why I mentioned I would only be using one or the other, never both at the same time. Thank you ... | |
| Can I use 2 different streamers in different systems through Qobuz? @mattw73 Thanks so much! I literally just watched a video review on the DMP A-6 and Iâm about to pull the trigger! Sealed the deal for me! Ya I thought the MXN10 offered USB and was heartbroken that it didnâtâŠagain thanks so much for taking the ti... | |
| Can I use 2 different streamers in different systems through Qobuz? Thanks @mahler123Â ââââ@mattw73. I checked out the Primare, but one important thing is a USB Ato B for connection to my Pontus DAC. Cambridge MXN10 does not offer that USB connection. So I am now extremely close to pulling the trigger on the Everso... | |
| Can I use 2 different streamers in different systems through Qobuz? Thanks for taking the time to respond...much appreciatedđ! | |
| DAC upgrade Iâll also recommend DENAFRIPS both Ares and Pontus (I actually have both). The Pontus is every bit as good as its reputation. I found it added a sense of realism and warmth to my system. I find it to be almost 3D like. Best way I can describe it. ... | |
| Ripping CDs I have the Brennan B2 and it is amazing! This is the new version called Helix. It is VERY short $$ and it is SOOOO worth it! You can also get it on Amazon. I actually have the B2 right next to my Node in my rig. Youâll want an external DAC and do ... | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Definitely agree with the Sonus Faber and Revel recommendations. Iâll also throw in Dynaudio. I feel like Dynaudio are one speaker that you almost canât not like. They sort of ooze out and surround you and draw you in. Whereas some others (like B&... |
