| Speaker change My view of the hierarchy of a audio system is: Speakers, amp, DAC, streamer. (ok, I'm waiting for the counter comments already) My journey and experience are different, and I wish to offer an alternative perspective—not a counter one. I believe... | |
| Speaker change OP, I think you have an impeccable system, but relatively speaking, the weak link is the EverSolo A6 streamer—not the speakers. I had the A6 for a 30-day home audition but returned it in disappointment. Consider upgrading it. I highly recommend my... | |
| volumio rivo plus and lineo5 - who has heard and can comment on this unit? @audiocanada The Rivo+ arrived in just five days, impressively quick. I’m still waiting for the LPS, but even with the stock SMPS it sounds excellent right out of the box—just as the hype suggested. It’s in a completely different league from the ... | |
| Case in point: a $90,000 power cord by ASUNZ Idiotphilia. | |
| Qobuz Connect It is weird. QC does not work well with my Wiim but I had no issue with Volumio Rivo plus. Same wired ethernet setup. | |
| COAX Cable Recommendations.... need some glitter @sls883 If you look at both the AZ and The Cable Company websites, the AZ MC2 digital coaxial cable is no longer listed. TCC just took it down today. The CC lead rep mentioned that it is a big no-no to use an S/PDIF cable with impedance incompati... | |
| Reasonably-Priced Linear Power Supply for WIMM Pro Plus Streamer @mattw73 Depending on the device I can’t really perceive a difference between the LPS Sbooster & the Ifi Elite. Is it just the Sbooster Eco, or is the Ultra added as well? From the spec sheet, the difference in ripple noise is huge—Eco is ... | |
| Streamer Options Needed Rivo plus + LPS connected with D90 III Discrete via I2s -> sublime | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) I think Weng is the founder and owner of Laiv Audio. | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) @ghdprentice The ’additional deduction’ is clearly stated in the ’Refunds’ section, neither ’embedded’ nor hidden elsewhere. See below. "We as buyers have to take responsibility for the choices we make..when all the info is given up front." as... | |
| COAX Cable Recommendations.... need some glitter I went ahead with the Acoustical Zen silver MC2. I think the silver will serve this setup well... I just couldn’t get over how the nagra with the audio zen seemed a little murky ... Murky presentation on a $5k streamer! It might actually be ca... | |
| Qobuz Connect I had the same problem too and had to stop using it unfortunately. | |
| Reasonably-Priced Linear Power Supply for WIMM Pro Plus Streamer iFi makes some solid LPSs at a few price points. What are those? If you refer to ipower 2, X or Elite, they are still SMPS. | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) Op and others, you need to put yourself in their shoes. First, credit card companies and PayPal don’t refund the processing fee to the seller when a refund is issued to the customer. Second, when you return merchandise to Harmony, they provide you... | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) There are so many excellent reviews out there, and I believe you pulled the trigger because of the hype. I’m not sure how many hours of burn-in you’ve gone through, but every DAC—including the Harmony—needs at least 250 hours before you can truly ... |
