| Recommendations for music network player @pophaudioAcrolink cables are pretty decent, once you hook up your Vault please report back your experience. I am using Purist Musaeus IC’s (very neutral sounding) and Verastarr SPDIF cable. | |
| GutWire Ultimate Grounding Cable @tommylion, Didn’t I warned you 😉Component grounding is just as important as AC grounding. My system took major leap forward when I added component grounding from Nordost (QKORE6). I am glad you’re enjoying your upgrade. Cheers! | |
| DACs and bass response? @stuartk,What are your source components? I am thinking may be there is a room for improvements elsewhere in your system. | |
| Newbie here with a cable question @ceborg999,Check out iFi iPurifier, couple of these $99 plugins with good quality passive power distributor would do just fine. https://ifi-audio.com/portfolio-view/accessory-ac-ipurifier/ | |
| GutWire Ultimate Grounding Cable @tommylion,That’s a very encouraging news! I am glad to hear your positive experience so far...On another thread here, I acted on a lead and order a pair of iFi iPurifiers earlier today. They seem to be well thought out in their design philosophy ... | |
| DACs and bass response? Steve, “The final jitter will be exactly the same, no matter what the source is” - Agreed. “You can literally compete with a $20K transport using a $300 transport and a $1400 Synchro-Mesh and Dynamo power supply” - That’s a pretty bold statement, ... | |
| DACs and bass response? @audioengr,Thank you for your feedback and sharing the link. I guess that’s one way to promote external reclocker by taking a subpar DAC/Streamer. I do not know about anyone else but IMO, SONOS connect box is a piece of crap. It’s also one of the ... | |
| DACs and bass response? @audioengr,Speaking of your Synchro-Mesh reclocker, what about DAC’s internal jitter control? Is it not good enough to reduce jitter on a incoming digital signal? I am just trying to understand the need for external reclocker. My DAC is equipped ... | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 1) @guidocorona +2 | |
| ARC Ref 5se inferior to LS28? “I will say, it is 90% of the REF6 that replaced it in my system”+1, @docknow. I purchased LS28 after auditioning both at my dealer. And I didn’t think the subtle improvements I heard with Ref6 were worth twice the price. Having said that, if Ref6... | |

| Recommendations for music network player @pophaudio,Aurender N100H is a very nice streamer but restricted to USB output. There are plenty of threads on Aurender N100 and DAC recommendations that gels quite well with N100H, I suggest you do some reading before you buy N100. You will neve... | |
| Mcintosh 402 Amp in protection mode @bulldog90,Congrats on a wonderful system. What preamp you’re using? I used to own C2500 pre that has Output 1 and 2 buttons on front panels. Depending on which output your amp connected to, one of them needs to be ON (Red LED) for sound output. A... | |
| Recommendations for music network player Try auditioning Bluesound Vault 2, very versatile and amazing sound given its asking price. You also get a DAC onboard that decodes MQA** files as a bonus. **For MQA playback, you would need a subscription to Tidal. And if cost no object and you’r... | |
| ROON help needed Tidal in its native form sounds amazing, applying DSP settings is like compensating for deficiencies in your listening environment / faulty component or simply a matter of personal preference. I like simplicity, plug n play. |
