| Bluesound Vault 2 @ct221933,Yes, you can rip and stream music simultaneously. | |
| Is this MQA news a big deal? +1, Kalali. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? First it was our cable, then our ability to hear and now it is our playback system....whatever!I never said my system won’t buffer beyond 30 seconds. | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming @uberwaltz,I get that, 2170 has a very high quality DAC so it should sound better. “To get full MQA benefit right now I would likely need to insert another MQA capable DAC between the Vault and the 2170”You can try Mytek Brooklyn, I heard it’s pre... | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming @uberwaltzIf you’re already using an external DAC, I would sit tight. However, you’re missing out on full MQA decoding by using Digi Coax output. You may not care about MQA but I am curious if you have compared the analog vs digital into 2170 DAC ... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? “I get it that you have no clue how this stuff works but it at least should be a ’woke’ moment for you...”Oh I know exactly how the streaming works, but you can’t seem to grasp a simple fact that once 10, 20 or 30 seconds of downloaded 1’s and 0’s... | |
| Ready to move onto next stage of streaming You could consider Aurender A10, but how much improvement you would yield by spending 4x is contingent upon your system and your ears. A10 is pretty amazing for all it does at $5K price point. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? “When I start playing a song, pull the Ethernet cable, and the song plays on for the duration, like it does with Tidal, what effect is the cable having?”There won’t be any music to play if there was no cable between the switch and renderer to begi... | |
| LA AS Cancelled Very disappointing! They cancelled T.H.E. Show in 2017. I guess we can continue to count on AXPONA (which was great this year) and RMAF. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? “My proposal is that gear that is susceptible to a change in a short length of Ethernet cable is faulty”Great, this is coming from a guy who conduct listening tests on a headphone. And the other one, who clearly do not believe that cables can make... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? “I've tested out 3 botique cables from $27 to $233 a foot. In three systems, didn't do anything more or less than 315 foot of 5e. Also in a forum members system a $13, 100 foot cable, put the bamboozle on that members system when blinded”@jinjuku,... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? “it is simply not physically possible for your ethernet cables to make a difference in sound quality”“If the same CD was sent to your house in a nice metal box with gold flaked paint on it would the CD inside sound any different? No, of course not... | |
| HT Bypass on preamp The 2ch preamp in bypass mode is simply passing the signal from your processor. In this mode, the volume control on the preamp is disabled so that the A/V receiver volume control is used to drive your L/R speakers and amp. | |
| MQA through Toslink You may consider Bluesound Node 2 which retail for $499.00. But I am not sure if you will hear full MQA unfold through its Toslink output. I own a Vault 2 and using its analog (RCA) output for MQA playback. | |
| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? Speaking of DI’s, they are probably the best value for Home Theater Sound, IMHO. For 2 channel, there are better choices out there regardless of price point. |
