| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “DSD 1024” @ghasley You’re on a roll today…LOL! I am catching up to your posts…As you might know the main DAW in the world for recording in DSD is max out in 256. That’s Merging’s Technologies Pyramix. If I am not mistaken all of the DSD 512 or... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @ghasley Thanks for your last post, very informative and helpful in understanding why you preferred MU1 over Innuos and Aurender. I don't mean to beat a dead horse but my stance on upsampling was based on my extended listening with four differen... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev I get it, Aurender is not for everyone. Whatever path you choose, just have fun. @charles1dad …I appreciate your support. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @nyev Unless you’re married to ROON, consider auditioning Aurender N20 and call it a day! I can hardly wait to get N30SA later this year and complete my quest on what I consider my ultimate digital front end under $100K. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @arafiq, Once you hear a native file on a well executed NOS DAC, you won’t care for upsampled file. You can’t magically add meaningful ‘information’ that’s not there! Trickery or not, I will leave it your own imagination :-) @charles1dad Yo... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “People forget that when a designer creates a module like this there are other synergies at work that allow him or her to squeeze out more performance” +1, @arafiq Sometimes we can’t get pass the notion that a ‘add-on module’ can’t be as good a... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @charles1dad I completely understand the argument about ‘real world SQ’. I know atleast two very highly regarded DAC manufacturers (AudioNote and Abendrot) that doesn’t do DSD (an important consideration for me) but I wouldn’t hesitate to jump o... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? In one word - NO. ‘The Best’ is often contingent on your budget and rest of the system. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, one man’s garbage is other man’s… I don’t fancy any DAC or Streamer that can’t pla... | |
| Why is it that every time, lately, that I'm interested in a thread... +1, @thecarpathian We lost another thread earlier today. The OP was simply asking opinion from actual users of three brands of ethernet cables and the thread quickly went down the path of pissing match between the usual naysayers and believers. ... | |
| Audio gear, sonic quality when you listen in less (or non-) focused ways “What do you listen for, sonically, in your non-FL system?” @hilde45 In one word, Coherency. If you don’t have this part right, rest is all downhill from there. IMHO, Sub is an integral part of music and movies alike. Other than the obvious need... | |
| Audio gear, sonic quality when you listen in less (or non-) focused ways “How good does the sound need to be? In other words, how cheap a solution are you willing to get away with for those other kinds of listening? What do you use?“ @hilde45 Other than the FL in my dedicated room, my SONOS system provides plenty of ... | |
| the question of changing ethernet cables “I have just the amp and preamp on I have a very slight hiss” @finnlove I suspect that white noise / hiss your hearing is coming from router. Without knowing every single component in your system, we can only speculate. I used to own a tube amp ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “our investment in the gear should never be the end game, we should strive to maximize our enjoyment”. +1, @ghasley I couldn’t agree with you more! | |
| Best Server To Run Roon Core @fastfreight Looking forward to your impressions on Pro vs Std Muon. There is a custom NUC option readily available off Amazon but not sure how much of an upgrade that would be over Nucleus +. Many user reported issues / repairs with Nucleus so... | |
| the question of changing ethernet cables Unless you’re running fiber from your ‘box’ to ps audio streamer, you’re still susceptible to noise. In your setup, your router is a potential source of noise. Are you using a wall wart (another source of noise) or linear power supply to power the... |
