| Streamer creates a Wow experience @lordmelton Thanks for your post. I just want to reiterate, the use of external clock with N20, N30 or W20 requires a well thought out holistic approach and a commitment for SOTA digital streaming. Attaching a 10mhz master clock to a streamer is... | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? @mikelavigne Appreciate your confirmation, I don’t doubt at all that Etsuro Gold would be a wonderful addition to my analog rig. Thank you for sharing your early thoughts on DaVa Reference, something to consider down the road :-) | |
| Streamer creates a Wow experience “Aurender’s ecosystems are sonically quite impressive given the coupling between the hardware and software.” +1, @blisshifi @sbank I understand if you prefer Roon but its not the best software for sound quality. I am not here to bash ROON ... | |
| Streamer creates a Wow experience @reimarc I would look into Aurender N150 or N200. There are plenty of dealers that can afford you in-home demo. Either of these streamers would be a substantial upgrade over your MacBook. And their conductor app is easy to navigate / browse musi... | |
| Streamer creates a Wow experience @soix Thank you for posting and congrats on taking the leap of faith. I hope your thread open eyes for many who still thinks streamer quality don’t matter or streaming is no where near the quality of CD’s. I will also add, everything matters in ... | |
| Shostakovich Fifth Symphony @mahler123 Thank you for your post and recommendation. I don’t listen to classical as religiously as jazz but you can’t help dabble into a piece as intense as Shostakovich’s 5th. Few pieces of classical music have been the subject of so much d... | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? +1, @mikelavigne I am hoping to end up with Etsuro Gold MC in very near future, once I am done putting together all the pieces of my new analog rig. | |
| Magico M9 a ton of weight and a million dollar price tag $750,000 The M9’s are hideous, for me the S7 holds the sweet spot. | |
| CD RACK @nonoise You may be weary of looking at old wood cabinets but atleast you are not dusting off the CD’s every week. I own 5 cabinets full of media with glass doors from Leslie Dame :-) | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? "what is the world’s best cartridge" The one that you can afford and sounds sublime to your ears in the context of your system! | |
| Tekton haters and bashers you just got a new target! Haters will be haters…I see few of ‘happy’ ASR members taking a stab at design and aesthetics and you certainly enjoy stirring the pot 🤣 https://hometheaterreview.com/monitor-audio-concept-50-made-sound-waves-at-munich-2022/ | |
| Shrill high frequencies Did you allow enough ‘break-in’ hours? Also, experiment with PC feeding the IsoTek. | |
| Washington Post article on MoFi vs. Fremer vs. Esposito “I bet the majority of listeners actually like highly compressed music.” @larryi …sadly majority of listeners just don’t care. Spotify still has the largest subscriber base due to their vast catalog, streaming in 160kbps - 320kbps range. | |
| Which component to upgrade 1st ? “the better the quality of speakers , the more they simply faithfully amplify the signal (Quality) fed to them.” @charles1dad …..Exactly, I rebuild my current system around my Canterbury’s:-) | |
| Which component to upgrade 1st ? @hilde45 I can’t speak for anyone else but in my system, the audible difference between a BS Vault and Aurender N100 were far from subtle. I won’t pity BS Node or Vault against Aurender N20 or W20SE cause that wouldn’t be a fair comparison. One ... |
