| Aurender N20 @vonhelmholtz Thank you for sharing your experience and joy. Good call on Shunyata Sigma NR V2 upgrade and glad it all worked out. I just finished reading up on the proprietary tech employed with these cables, very impressive indeed! IMHO, a hi... | |
| The character of analog and digital @sns You make an excellent point. Our subjective opinions are mere reflection of our level of commitment and experience. I said it all along, The devil is in the details. In my case, for past 3-5 years, I was laser focused on pushing my digital ... | |
| Not Chinese Fakes But Not big $$$ Either Great job! The cable appears to be of very high quality. Looking forward to hearing your impressions. PS: Chris at VH Audio sells high quality products, nothing but positive shopping experiences in last 10 plus years. | |
| Denafrips DAC decoding oddities @drmuso If you want to listen SACD and Blu-ray Audio in its full glory, you need to invest in D.BOB, https://geerfab.com/audio/ And I agree with @jriggy, if you cannot hear the difference of SACD from a normal CD, it just points to a sonic bot... | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes @jhajeski I am using a pair of Auralex Sub-Dude II Isolation Pad underneath my REL’s. Use the spikes supplied with REL’s and place them over these pads. They would be much more stable and prevent any movement not to mention tighter bass. https:... | |
| DAC Merry Go 'Round- why I stopped at Weiss Congratulations @jimmy2615 on finally finding the DAC and we appreciate the detailed write up. I agree with you and @phastm3, the network based DAC’s with Roon rendering capabilities has narrowed the performance gap vs. separate DAC and Streamer/S... | |
| Steely Dan "Can't Buy A Thrill" on UHQR vinyl @mofimadness Thanks for your posting. @akg_ca If you are into digital downloads, I recommend buying from ProStudioMasters. Full transparency on the provenance of digital files. https://www.prostudiomasters.com/search?cs=1&q=Steely+D... | |
| The character of analog and digital @frogman I understand the difference you speak of are possibly due to differences in mastering techniques. That’s why I chose to focus on recordings that are faithfully reproduced and sourced from analog master. We all are trying to replicate li... | |
| The character of analog and digital “However, to my ears and in spite of the excellence that both are capable of, digital imposes more of its character on the music. “ @frogman Are these are the same ears that were possibly duped by MoFi in believing no digital mastering used in ... | |

| Aurender ACS100 as streamer/player “Is DSD always superior to PCM?” @vonhelmholtz Technically, Yes! But not always, a PCM file can sound just as good as DSD. For me, the quality of production, mixing and mastering is what matters most instead of a file format. If you would like ... | |
| Aurender ACS100 as streamer/player @ral You can back up files to an external drive over network or by connecting directly to ACS100 Data USB ports, the app is very intuitive. 1X USB 3.0 (Rear), 1X USB 3.0 (Front), 1X USB 2.0 (Rear) | |
| Aurender ACS100 as streamer/player @ral I hear you on HDD drives but given Aurender’s track record of reliability and excellent customer service support, it’s safe to assume that you don’t have to worry about internal drives crashing anytime soon. The UPS option in both ACS10 and... | |
| Aurender ACS100 as streamer/player @ral Since you’re considering ACS100 as primary digital source, the two obvious concerns are its non filtered & isolated USB output and external SMPS UPS power supply. If you’re ok with its external SMPS UPS power supply then all you need t... | |
| Why do so many sellers take offense to offers on their listings? “Anybody who lists an item for sale and notes “lowballs will be ignored” is potentially missing lots of opportunities to sell.” If a buyer walks away from an ad after reading above message then what does that say about the buyer? Is he a lowballe... |
