| Ideal power cord lengths? “TBH I’m not noticing any issues with my room, but I know it can be improved.” @nyev Honestly, you would not know how vastly your system sound improves until you start to treat your room. No matter how complicated your room is, GIK Acoustics c... | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? @soix I agree for the most part. It’s only going to get better. I have been streaming for over 10 years and for me, my streaming is equally enjoyable as my analog and CD/SACD setups. I am now more focused on optimizing or extracting the most out... | |
| Ethernet - Analog/Digital Signal Clean Up @mitch2 There are so many ways to optimize the Ethernet before signal reaches your streamer/server. I believe in keeping fewer devices in the signal chain as each ‘break’ in signal chain introduces new set of problems related to noise and change... | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? “One can only wonder and be excited in the anticipation of where we’ll be 10 years from now. I can’t even imagine.” @soix You can count on the ageless debate…Analog (Vinyl) vs Digital (CD/Streaming) 😂 | |
| Zavfino @behzad In my experience, Fusion IC holds the sweet spot in terms of performance and money. Fusion has a more balanced and detailed sound compare to Arcadia. | |
| Ideal power cord lengths? “Next up for another highly controversial subject: isolation and/or vibration control!” @nyev I just looked at your system pics and don’t see any room treatments. If you haven’t already, I would focus on room acoustics before you spend a dime o... | |
| Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West? +1, @fastfreight ….great post! | |
| Best budget USB @barts Well, you read my post in that thread. Thought you should know before making a purchase…LOL! | |
| Best budget USB @lollipopguild In a ideal world, you should be using same USB cable before and after Phoenix USB. But for Supra should do just fine! | |
| Accuphase dac 60 @duketbrd88 Congratulations. Seeing that you’re in States, may I ask which vendor did you use to order DAC60? | |
| Best budget USB “My understanding is that the shorter a USB cable is the better, correct?” @barts Apparently not, a shorter length cable can sound terrible compare to a longer length of same brand. There are few here who are convinced that cable length matters... | |
| Best budget USB @lollipopguild Go with Supra if you can’t afford another FTA before Phoenix USB. Also, use a high quality PCOCC power cable with Phoenix USB. | |
| Accuphase dac 60 I second the @jjss49 post on Accuphase sound. I own a E-650, go for digital module and allow atleast 300 plus hours before you make the final judgment! | |
| Does anyone on this Forum have any experience with Audio research ref 610t monoblocks It would be helpful to know, 1)What is your rest of the system? 2) What is the service history on 610T’s? You started a thread asking the community for preamp recommendations on July 31, “Looking for a reference preamp with XLR inputs and outp... | |
| Ideal power cord lengths? "the cables shorter than 1.5m sounded TERRIBLE by comparison." I realize the subjective nature of our hobby but this is the kind of BS that gives bad wrap to audiophiles. Just think about it, why would a cable manufacturer supply a 1M length if i... |
