| Aurender vs. Roon “please recognize that the Statement is absolutely blowing people’s minds in a way that we haven’t seen in a very long time”Statement with 4TB SSD cost $15150, at this price they better be blowing people’s minds 😉In all fairness, Innous Statement ... | |
| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl “CD is for casual listening. Vinyl is for serious listening”I humbly disagree with your statement. Serious listening is not format dependent....I can confidently say that I experience same level of pride and joy in listening to my favorite artists... | |
| Aurender vs. Roon @audiotroy, My posts on first page of this thread are pretty clear where I stand on Aurender SQ, conductor app and upconverting. Aurender owners needs no further convincing that they are missing a great deal by not having Roon ( as you keep pointi... | |
| Why Are HI-RES Downloads So Expensive? +1, uberwaltz. I have not bought any hi-Rez downloads in over 1.5 years. With subscription to both Tidal and Qobuz I got all the high resolution content at my finger tips. | |
| Aurender vs. Roon Watch out...here comes the biggest peddler of Roon and anti-Aurender on Agon forum 😎 | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? @mac48025, Thanks for sharing your experience with 300B SET. I can hardly wait to hear the purity of 300B SET in my setup. My Canterbury’s are 96db so I should be okay with 8wpc. I got both Sophia Electric 300B Mesh and Royal Princess so it will b... | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? @alexatpos,I would also suggest to contact Aric from Aric Audio. He is super knowledgeable with 300B design and possibly accommodate you with pretty much any customization available under the sun. I am in process of trying his newest prototype of ... | |
| Amplifier and Digital Streamer on Single 15A Circuit? OP,I recommend a high quality power distribution block for your gear. I have all of my digital gear and amps plugged into Nordost QB8. I found QB8 to be very effective in isolating and lowering noise. One thing I appreciate about Nordost is their ... | |
| Cd's to make a come back in the future? Streaming will eventually kill......I somewhat agree with last poster. I believe SACD and XRCD’s will survive as niche media like LP’s. The XRCD’s are stupendously good....one of my favorites is Dexter Gordon’s A Swingin' Affair. Listen to Hotel C... | |
| Digital Storage/Server, Sans DAC- What's Available? If you’re going to use a external DAC, you could consider Bluesound Vault 2i. I am using one with my external DAC and it sounds pretty amazing. The app is easy to use, many streaming options as well as direct high-Rez downloads from HDTracks to it... | |
| Preamps Another nod for Ayre. I also recommend T+A P3000HV. There is a demo T+A on Agon, https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis8hd59-t-a-elektroakustik-p3000hv-available-in-titanium-and-silv...And this is hot off the press for you to consider, https://www.... | |
| Any comments on AES/EBU XLR digital cable VS. BNC Cable @hgeifman, I don’t think you stand to gain any improvement through a BNC cable vs. AES/EBU. Both AES and S/PDIF outputs on your N10 are governed by oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) clock, which determines the intervals at which informatio... | |
| Is OPPO worth the inflated price? @mzkmxcv,Transparency doesn’t always equates to musicality. You are one of those folks that judge a component performance based on its measurement data and then forms an opinion. I bet you anything you’re one of those that defy anything audio or e... | |
| Is OPPO worth the inflated price? @mzkmxcvI was expressing my opinion based on my experience. As far as credibility goes, we know exactly your knowledge base in the area of digital. In fact, you are hardly a subject matter expert. | |
| Is OPPO worth the inflated price? Since I own both 203 and 205’s, I know exactly how transparent the DAC inside the 205. Which one of these you own? |
