| Streamer upgrade? follow up. @bikeboy52 Next move, optimizing the Ethernet signal if you haven’t already done so. Please share, how’s your N200 is connected to modem or router including cabling. Thank you! | |
| Streamer upgrade? follow up. @bikeboy52 Congratulations! I believe N200 is now the new sweet spot (previously held by N10) in Aurender lineup. With an appropriate DAC, you’re treated with a sound that has plenty of low frequency extension and slam. The new improved line up ... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @charles1dad Just sent you a PM. | |
| The revolution has begun! SOTA digital at a bargain price of $1698.00 (while supplies last)! https://www.peachtreeaudio.com/products/gan-1-pre-purchase?variant=42215471218838 What @ricevs hasn’t said….we all can guess the fate of a device limited to only one digital i... | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @brandonhifi Thanks for the update. Looking forward to your impressions with one of the finest master clock currently available. | |
| Streamers and their Fuses @brandonhifi A possible explanation would be, W20SE is not completely off the grid. Only its audio circuitry is being fueled by set of lifepo4 batteries. Hence the impact of a fuse and a PC is clearly audible through your fine system. Did you ... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? “Is there any result of blind testing of Sense vs Roon ? Love to hear it.” @jeffseight I don’t believe in blind tests. Fortunately, my system is resolving enough to collaborate differences between hardwares/ softwares and how well they are exec... | |
| Jays CD2- Mk3 CDT vrs CEC-TL5 CDT @robshaw Great call with Project RS2T cd transport. If I ever venture into a CD player, the RS2T would be one of my top contenders. If one is seeking top performance from CD’s, a transport like RS2T is the way to go with a flexibility of an exte... | |
| USB yet again @uncledemp Enjoyed reading your post. Our systems are true reflections of how that painting should look (replicated) in our environment. I think for many of us, it’s the pursuit of perfection more gratifying and fun than the actual result 😊 | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? “Curious if that bottleneck would become even more pronounced with a better DAC? ” @toro3 A better DAC will be more revealing of any shortcomings of components (source) upstream. Since OP owns a very good DAC and already optimized the Ethernet c... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @kota1 The OP is aiming at his end game digital front end. Your suggestions so far suggests an entry level streamer options which is clearly opposite OP’s goal. +1, @charles1dad “A mediocre source will impede a good DAC”. | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @fthompson251 I would definitely buy Aurender N200 first, ahead of your Venus II and later step up to Terminator II when funds permits. You’ve already optimized ethernet by way of ENO in your system so that’s one less thing you need to worry :-) | |
| Jays CD2- Mk3 CDT vrs CEC-TL5 CDT @robshaw What player did you end up purchasing? | |
| Dedicated Line - Things to consider @audphile1 As far as whole house surge protection, I would look at installing Environmental Potentials EP-2050 or 2050EE Surge and AC Waveform Correction & EP-2750 Ground Filter in sub or main panel feeding your audio room. | |
| USB yet again “Hopefully the industry comes up with a better solution.” @antigrunge2 It is very unlikely to see a groundbreaking advancement in the areas of USB, AES/SPDIF implementation. These protocols, IMHO have matured and may’ even reached their maximum... |
