| Ethernet - Analog/Digital Signal Clean Up @audphile1 Not a least bit surprised by your thorough assessment. The ENO Filter is all you need in most applications. I did not care for Netgear Gigabit switch with iFI power supply in my setup either. Now sit back and enjoy music! @soix “To... | |
| 2019 Mac Pro vs. Roon “I just want to be able to play my downloaded files as best as is possible.” If that’s your goal then your Marantz 30n is upto the task. How well your Marantz can curate your library will depend on the size of your library. Go ahead and try it an... | |
| From separate streamer and DAC to al-in-one suggestion @patrickdowns I just wanted to give your another option to consider if you are pursuing MA3 which is not nearly as good as DA2. And yes, I liked DA2 until I auditioned +player :-) The DA2 is one of the best DAC’s but the DAC inside +player is n... | |
| Qobuz Playlists Exchange Thank you for sharing Warren. I couldn’t play #17 & #20. | |
| Wadax Reference Dac and Reference Server--arrived in my room. @mikelavigne Thank you for taking the time to post your recommendations. Those are all good options and I will try to explore them in my upcoming vinyl project later this year. For now, I am really enjoying my modest streaming setup recommended ... | |
| Basic switch....should I upgrade? If your streamer looks just as exquisite as this TT then by all means skip the TT 😊 Back to your query, I don’t think changing out switch before EtherREGEN would yield much improvement. I do like the suggestion of upgrading to iFI 5V power supply ... | |
| Roon Nucleus as a Streamer Don’t waste your money on Nucleus or Nucleus plus. Instead, use your existing laptop to run Roon Core and buy a decent dedicated streamer with Roon ready (endpoint). For Roon server duties, there are so many inexpensive options that are better tha... | |
| From separate streamer and DAC to al-in-one suggestion @patrickdowns I used to own EMM Labs DA2 so I am intimately familiar with Ed’s work. While MA3 may have all the features you are looking for, you still need an external server to run Roon core. I encourage you to look into Merging Technologies +... | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @grannyring Looking forward to your impressions on Rubicon. I mentioned to @richtruss a while back, for a fair comparison with my existing Telegartner M12 Switch Gold; I would only entertain the audition of Rubicon and Muon Filter together not s... | |
| Does Aurender do Processing on S/PDIF Outputs? “Does anyone know if an Aurender N100C does signal processing on its S/PDIF outputs” In one word YES! The SPDIF audio output differs from asynchronous (USB) output. With SPDIF output, the clocking / processing is done within the server as oppos... | |
| Point of diminishing returns for a Network Streamers? “I’d hear more of a sound difference upgrading the DAC or even the speakers than from upgrading the streamer” @julie_priest Exactly! Given your rest of your system, I am not at all surprised by the very small improvement from U1 Mini. You may f... | |
| Network Acoustics Muon ethernet filtering system - Improving streaming sound quality @grannyring Thank you for posting your impressions about Muon filter. I am patiently waiting to try Muon Filter and Rubicon Ethernet Switch in my system. There is a brand new review on Muon published earlier today, https://www.the-ear.net/revie... | |
| Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet @antigrunge2 Wishful thinking! Michael Fremer heart and soul belongs to Vinyl. He may dabble into digital here n there for convenience but I can’t imagine him dumping his massive record collection for digital streaming. Most of these transitions... | |
