| Where to purchase cables? I too am using Morrow cables. Great cables at a reasonable cost. Plus, they offer the option to burn them in. I was using the lower models of Audioquest previously, and the Morrow cables are a definite improvement. | |
| Legacy Audio Focus SE and rivals I got a pair of Signature SE two years ago. I originally bought a pair of Classic HD, and after listening to them for awhile always kicked myself for not going for the Signatures instead. However, the factory gave me a very generous trade in on... | |
| Bluesound mode not really cutting it I have a Node 2i. I stream mostly from Amazon Music HD and Idagio. I have looked into upgrading to a higher end streamer, but I cannot find anything that supports these two streaming services. (Innuos supports Idagio, but not Amazon, and has no in... | |
| Alta Alec vs Legacy Signature SE vs Elac Vela 408.2 I purchased a pair of Signature SE two years ago. Prior to that I had a pair of Legacy Audio Classic HD. Always regretted not going with the Signatures right from the start, but the factory gave me a really generous trade in deal. Sound charact... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA I use them under my Legacy Audio Signature SE's. Made a noticeable improvement in bass and soundstage (deeper, better separation between instruments, just a cleaner, better focused sound.) My speakers are sitting on a hardwood floor over plywood s... | |
| Bluesound Yep, problem seems to be fixed. I'm still going to try Tidal to see how it compares, both in SQ and the OS interface. | |
| Bluesound I tried Qobuz but I didn't like the interface at all. Whereas Amazon has a "station" based on a particular artist, Qobuz did not seem to have that feature. The SQ was great, however. I think I'll try Tidal and see if their interface is better. If ... | |
| Bluesound My experience is that it is only happening with Amazon Music. I also play Idagio and radio stations through TuneIn and have not had a problem with either. | |
| Bluesound So today, the problem is even worse. I can't log in to Amazon Music HD at all. Perhaps it's time to try Tidal!! | |
| Bluesound Yes, this issue began last week on my Node 2i. It seems to happen most often when playing a "Station" on Amazon. Sometimes it won't play the Station at all, displaying that message; other times it will play two or three songs, then stop and di... | |
| Updating my streamer It's important to choose a streamer whose app supports the streaming services that you choose to use. I stream from Amazon HD and Idagio. The only app I have found that supports both of these services is the BluOS. So although I'd like to move ... | |
| New speakers for a new start? I have a room setup very similar to yours, with the exception that it has 9 foot walls and a vaulted ceiling. I am using a pair of Legacy Audio Signature SE, and I absolutely love them. Large sweet spot, great bass extension, and a very wide a... | |
| Well Recorded Classical Symphonic Recordings Dvorak Symphonies 7-9, L.A. Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel. Recorded by DG, but only available as download or streaming, no CD for some reason. Great sq and balance, and imo the best interpretation I've yet heard. | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp Have you considered moding your Node with a linear power supply? I moded mine with a TeddyPardo LPS and the improvement was huge. As mentioned in an post above, software (OS) is extremely important in a streamer; it needs to support the streamin... | |
| Importance of streamer in audio chain Still one of the most important points: does the streamer's OS support the streaming services that you want to listen to? If not, it's not a good streamer for you. This is the reason I'm still using the digital out on a TeddyPardo moded Bluesound... |
