| 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 ... | |
| A Sonic Revelation: M101 LAN Cable Review @willsc No qualms about you settling with M101 LAN, just enjoy the cable and the elevated performance. Keeping an open mind and trying things for yourself usually leads to this type of pleasant surprises. Thanks again for your post. |
