| Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough? @duketbrd88 IME, the ‘stock’ cord is serviceable at best but not at same level as some of the aftermarket cords being suggested to you. Ultimately, only you can decide if aftermarket PC’s are worth the money. I have experimented with few cords o... | |
| Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough? @inagroove Sorry to hear about your experience with AE cords. Since you’re willing to give them away, @duketbrd88 may take you up on your generosity. | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? @mclinnguy Some folks just can’t get out of their own way. They rather choose to butt heads and throw around their expertise irrelevant to the matter on hand 😊 | |
| Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough? @duketbrd88 I would try Zavfino Fina or Majestic. And AE’s Ocean Expanded or Mega. I would also consult with Captain at Audio Envy. There is also a listing on USAudio Mart for Audio Envy Ocean Elite 3P for $125. That’s a good price if you don’t ... | |
| Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough? +1, @jl35 @duketbrd88 With an Integrated like Accuphase, you should try few PC’s. I would look into Zavfino and Audio Envy brands that eliminates the need to mess around with DIY cables. Like you, my entire system is plugged into a pair of Iso... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? “preconditioning that 1’s and 0’s” @mitch2 Your last post aptly addresses the skepticism around spending more money for a well designed server. There are always going to be those who are completely content with running ROON core on a < $1K of... | |
| I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming @fastfreight WOW! I didn’t realize that you’re using Switch X in series with Gold and Muon Pro. When my Apple routers started to cause dropouts, I went with 50FT LinkUp CAT8 22AWG LAN between my Comcast/Infinity modem and Gold switch. No issues ... | |
| I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming +1, @fastfreight Instead of purchasing mass produced modem/switch that is not designed specifically for audio streaming…keep your Comcast/Infinity and add a high quality switch that specifically design for audio to filter noise. Consider adding ... | |
| New streamer “The N150 is a perfect fit for my system and I think has brought my system to my ‘audio nirvana’.” @signaforce That’s what counts at the end of the day. Enjoy your N150! | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? “what are the technical reasons one should sound better than the other?” @mitch2 IME, better parts + power supply and above all, implementation determines how each streamer is voiced. My streamer stood the test of times, in 10 plus years of own... | |
| New streamer @signaforce Upsampling upto 24bit/192kHz is only available on Aurender’s higher end digital models like N20, W20SE or N30SA through SPDIF/AES output. All of aforementioned models also features superior OCXO clock. USB is always bit-perfect with ... | |
| New streamer @signaforce All of those are very worthy consideration when buying a component unheard. If I may add, the stellar tech support from Aurender. Unless a hardware failure, everything else is easily troubleshooted remotely and promptly. This was a h... | |
| Mid-Fi, Hi-Fi or.....? I wouldn’t be too concerned about mid-fi or hi-fi. If you trying to step up to next level, try as many Integrated’s in your home. Sometimes you end up spending 1.5x to 2x for minimal gains…it that worth it, only you can decide. | |
| New streamer @signaforce Looks like you’re all set! From what I’ve read here, streamer probably the most under appreciated component in digital streaming. Many here believe that quality of streamer don’t or can’t possibly matter and high quality streamers a... | |
| New streamer @signaforce Congratulations on your purchase of N150. Please post your impressions once you’ve settled with N150. And you may already know this, N150’s performance can be further enhanced with a good quality PC, LAN and USB cables. |
