USB CD Transports I wonder how much better URD would be when compared to ripped file playback? I believe this player from Shanling appears to be a better built and features set, https://en.shanling.com/article-IntroET3.html | |
Tannoy Stirlings on the way! @trentmemphis I hope flooding didn’t cause much emotional and financial damage. Good luck with settling in your place! | |
Lumin U2 vs Aurender N200 @lordmelton You forgot one….😊 Aurender higher end models have word/master clock input, a huge performance advantage over many streamers if you have the cash to pair it with a high quality external master clock. | |
Anyone tired a Nordost QB4 MK III? Try Furutech power distributors, you kill two birds with one stone! Buy or try Niagara 1200 with return privileges. | |
SET Lovers, what's the one solid state amp you love(d)? “It’s almost like we all have different physiology and hear differently...” @dhcod Exactly! And not to mention the most critical piece of the equation, the synergy between the amp and speakers. I can name atleast dozen amps (both SS and SET) tha... | |
Lumin U2 vs Aurender N200 +1, @vonhelmholtz “My DAC is the module that comes in the McIntosh MA 8950. ” @john1629 I wouldn’t waste money on a better streamer like Aurender N200 or Lumin U2 unless you are planning to upgrade the DAC. The DAC module inside the MA8950 is ... | |
SET Lovers, what's the one solid state amp you love(d)? Accuphase - Class A. | |
The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition If you can’t afford one, go for it. To me, there is nothing appealing about this TT that can justifies its tag price of $60K even if I have money to burn! IMHO, there are much better options out there in $60K range or below that are primed for br... | |
Mac Mini As A Streaming Source @larrykell Thanks for posting your feedback. I reckon there are lot of filters to play with..I have gone through only 5 so far, still figuring out the best combo…lol! I was also struggling with keeping HQP running headless on my mini-pc so than... | |
Newbie question about connecting speakers with 4 posts This may help, use metal jumpers or jumper cables. https://support.klipsch.com/hc/en-us/articles/360046297811-Why-Are-There-4-Input-Terminals- https://www.amazon.com/Units-Audiophile-Speaker-Terminated-Connectors/dp/B07PKNFFMD/ref=sr_1_9?crid=3... | |
Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar. “I'm not sure how adding LPS to a NAS would help with sound quality” @phishhhhh4 You may want to check out discussions on wall wart vs LPS. | |
Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar. “no direct storage allowed” @thyname My criticism may seems bit harsh but It was quite surprising to see a player costing $7K, doesn’t offer such a simple functionality. At the end of the day, it’s not a deal breaker for anyone who loves the so... | |
Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar. @grannyring That’s a shame that Pulsar won’t support playback from a portable SSD drive via one of the USB ports. A glaring oversight that they better address soon. | |
Digitally recorded vinyl vs streaming @decooney Congratulations on your purchase of BP. It’s a fine sounding DAC and appropriate for pairing with decent streamer like Vault. I am currently using a SS DAC, which I am extremely happy with. There are no valve components in my system. ... | |
Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar. @grannyring Yes, Samsung SSD has USB C connector. The AQ USB C and A linked above works great. A direct connection is always better to avoid network induced noise, possible latency issues not to mention NAS requirements for LPS for optimal perfo... |
