| USB revisited @antigrunge2 Let me say it again, a subpar implementation of USB protocol in a device would necessitate the use of multiple noise filtering devices. Case in point, the USB Audio output of MK3, while it is better than the one you find in a laptop... | |
| USB revisited “The conclusion seems that multiple moats and filters on USB are additive rather than redundant.” @antigrunge2 The use of multiple noise blocking filters also indicative of sub-par implementation USB in a server and DAC. You don’t say what serv... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system Work with a dealer that is willing and patient in helping you build a system to your personal preferences. Going to a show like AXPONA would also give you a great exposure. With $100K to spend, I wouldn’t shy away to take a road trip or a flight t... | |
| Dealers with excellent listening rooms? @gestalt in Nashville. Some of the best sounding gear I’ve heard in my 30 years of audiophile journey. | |
| Roon Aquisition: Will This Help Or Hamper? It will definitely help Harmon sell more their DAC/Streamer with built-in Roon support. | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC +2, @hilde45 one of the prime reason for me to not consider a tube DAC upstream. It’s a matter of choice as to how one choose to fine tune their system sound to their preferences. I always thought, a tube preamp is probably an appropriate place t... | |
| New Network Acoustics Tempus switch @fastfreight Looking forward to your further thoughts on M12 vs Switch X. I haven’t thought about any network upgrades since installing M12 more than two years ago. If anything, I am tempted to add Telegartner OPT BRIDGE 1000M Optical Isolator a... | |
| Ethernet Switch Recommendations Please +1, on room treatments from GIK. | |
| Integrated for TAD ME1: Luxman, Accuphase or Soulnote? Audition both SoulNote and Accuphase with TAD. My personal preference would be Accuphase for tube like warmth, tonality and non-fatigued sound. | |
| Accuphase Bookshelf Speaker Pairing recommend Check out Fyne Audio F500, should be a great pairing with E-280. There is a lightly used pair on sale for $850. My all time favorite bookshelf speaker is TAD Micro Evolution One (ME-1) but that may be out of your budget. | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Why not! I always held LTA in very high regard. Looking forward to end user feedback. I still got few vintage 6SN7 tubes in my stash. | |
| Help with streamer software @markmuse Which Lumin you own? Thanks again for posting your feedback on AirLens. | |
| Help with streamer software @tomic601 LOL! I’m maxed out on upgrades as far as digital goes. Now focusing on putting together a nice TT setup….round n round we go! Happy Holidays to you! | |
| Help with streamer software @vandy357 You can run Roon Core on any PC to try out Roon with AirLens. You may have heard, Roon is also coming to Aurender. I have dabbled with JPLAY trial and it’s a nice app with Qobuz integration. But honestly, I did not see the need to pay ... | |
| Help with streamer software @vandy357 The AirLens is designed to mate with PS Audio DAC’s. Since you own their DAC, I say it’s worth the hassle of auditioning in your system. My experience tells me manufacturers touting on higher or better performance based on proprietary ... |
