| When Did Your System Disappear? RoomAcoustics...biggest change I’ve noticed in imaging and dynamics when I added room treatments last year from GIK Acoustics. | |
| Roon Nucleus as Network Player Not to side track the thread but I have been on fence with Dirac tech. I am particularly interested in hearing feedback on DDRC-22D. https://www.minidsp.com/dirac-series/ddrc-22d | |
| Group Challenge - Home lighting, who is in? @erik_squires,I suggest you buy one of these, it will set the right mood for listening and you are guaranteed to score major brownie points from millercarbon 😆https://www.amazon.com/Lava-Original-16-3-Inch-Silver-Yellow/dp/B001MWSVP6?ref_=s9_apbd_... | |
| Audiophile LAN cables @jetter,For Node 2i, try Supra Cat 8 LAN cable. It’s a very high quality cable...I am using one with my Vault 2. The authorized seller ‘zendada’ is listed on eBay. | |
| Audiophile LAN cables gill_92, Some may argue here but to my ears wired connection sounds more dynamic and detailed compared to WiFi. And yes, the LAN cable did make audible improvements between my Apple router and streamer (N10). After trying few, I end up with JCAT L... | |
| Are all red book cd transports created equal? Honestly, If it sounds better to your ears, you don’t need anyone’s validation. Enjoy the much improved and modern world of high quality digital streaming and bit perfect cd rips. | |
| Aurender N100 software update, now Aurender Media Manager is incompatible! uber, Glad to hear you got your N100 working as it should. As @psnyder149 pointed out, you should get a internal drive and play your rips off internal drive. Keep the external drive as a backup. Five plus years with Aurender, I have nothing but hi... | |
| Just switched from McIntosh C2500/2600 to ARC Ref 6, initial thoughts @topfinadv,I have owned both C1100 and Ref6 in the past and frankly for $8K you can get a much better preamp. IMHO, both of these preamps are overrated (no offense). I suggest you start a new thread and ask for recommendation under $8K. | |
| The Eagles Greatest Hits - Question garebear, If you’re a Eagles fan, then this disc is a must own. I have yet to hear another Eagles disc that can equal its SQ. https://elusivedisc.com/the-eagles-hell-freezes-over-xrcd2/ | |
| Are all red book cd transports created equal? “Don’t have to, they bring there streaming stuff here and put it in my system, and then are shocked when the same is played on my CD transport.“Thanks for the laughs...enjoy your boombox 😆 | |
| New high end processor @pinto72,Another vote for Marantz 8805. The SQ on both 2 Ch. and HT is superlative. You can find some used bargains for under $3k. Check out listings on Audiogon. | |
| Who are your favorite A'gon posters? +1, @uberwaltz 😎 | |
| Are all red book cd transports created equal? “This will only be close to bit perfect if he uses a good CD transport, other wise there’ll be errors and jitter transferred to the HD. Then there’s write and read back errors from the HD, probably powered by an smp, so noise to add to that also. ... | |
| Are all red book cd transports created equal? @steve59,I understand you are not quite ready to give up on CD’s yet. I would use Pioneer player in the interim and invest in a high quality streamer with internal hard drive so you can enjoy bit perfect rips of your CD’s.There are plenty of softw... | |
| Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? +1, tvad and almarg. @hilde45. Only you know what kind of sound you’re after. In reading your various threads, it seems you’re building your audio system from ground up for the long haul by considering amp, preamp, DAC and so on. My post about hig... |
