Which DAC makers let you do in home trial? Check out the Denafrips Ares II R2R DAC. It is easily one of the best R2R DAC within your budget. You may be reluctant to order this from Singapore but chances of you not liking this DAC are slim to none. You can count on Outstanding customer as l... | |
Artist you now like that you discovered through your streaming service Thanks everyone for sharing new finds...I couldn’t agree anymore. Streaming has opened up a doorway to many more musician that were previously unknown to me. Keep them coming....I will post some of my finds this weekend. @tooblue, thanks for keepi... | |
I wouod like a power cord recomendation that's in the budget category @mizike, I would not buy Pangea power cord, you might as well use a lamp cord instead. Cullen PC’s are good but Audio Envy Power Cords are better. Try his Ocean Elite 3P and you’re in for treat, a perfect match for your Calypso. | |
looking to upgrade from B&w 805s to full range On second thought, do you have any subs in the system? If not then add a pair of REL subs, with REL’s you are in for a treat. You will experience a whole new layer of tonality that brings music more to life. The imaging along with every detail fro... | |
Merrill Taranis vs Wyred4sound ST-500 Another vote for ATI 500NC series...build and sound quality is stupendously good without the bling! | |
EVER FEEL LIKE A TOTAL NITWIT DISCOVERING AN ARTIST LATE IN THE GAME? I am discovering artists previously unknown to me everyday...thanks to digital streaming. | |
Streaming For Beginners Bluesound Node 2i would be a good startup streamer. Down the road you can add an outboard DAC to further improve the sound of Node 2i (for example Ayre Codex DAC). | |
looking to upgrade from B&w 805s to full range If you like B&W sound, look into used 804D3 or 803D2. | |
Silly question, but I’ll ask it anyway. Darn it, all this time I was using clothes hangers to suspend my cables off the carpet. Thank you @geoffkait 😊 | |
Streaming Qubuz - take it to the next level. What is your budget? In addition to Lumin recommendation, I would also look into Aurender N100 or Innuos Zen MK3. With any of these components, expect a substantial leap in SQ over Node 2. As ozzy62 suggested, you must use wired network for optima... | |
REL Subwoofer. Your input requested ^^^agree with chazzy007. The new S812 is a worthy successor of S5. I just wish REL bring back wood veneer finishes. Both piano black and white finishes requires bit of upkeep. | |
Innuos - New Re-Clocker Hydra Z by Audiobyte is well known brand in Europe. Very high quality and value driven products for budget conscious audiophiles. The man behind the company is an engineer named Nicolae Jitariu who was also involved in the development of DAC modul... | |
A Top DAC Good list but as Darko says, the list is according to a subjective value quotientand not just their absolute sonic performance. | |
A Top DAC EMM Labs DA2 V2 is a must audition if you are serious about scouting current crop of top tier DAC’s. I also like OP top 3 choices...MSB Premier DAC, DCS Rossini, Pacific DAC | |
Higher End DACs Just to clarify further, OP is a newbie as far digital / streaming goes. One box solution like DCS Bartok or Lumin X1 or Aurender A30 will allow simple setup. All of the above are loaded with thoughtful features to wet his appetite. If the goal is... |
