| What are your thoughts/opinions on the Orchard Audio Starkrimson Mono Ultra Premium @perkri If you were interested. Tune in 28:56 for the video clip where the host compares Fosi V3 Mono with 5000$ Naim Supernait 3 and 9000$ Canor AI 1.20. | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? @macg19 My statement applies only to the experience related to the specific product A6 that I purchased. I am not supporting your case or endorsing your unfounded speculation. Yes, this is a free country and everyone has the right to express the... | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? Don't express opinions based on imagination. The burden of proof is on you if you make such a claim. @macg19 Nevertheless, I didn't have a positive experience with the everSolo A6, despite finally deciding to purchase it after so much hype. I en... | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 vs iPhone plugged directly to integrated amp - why no difference? Apple engineers figured out a long time ago how to use the iPhone as a fine streamer. It does not have a good internal DAC as we all know and connecting it to an external DAC can make a significant difference in sound quality. Its single USB-C or ... | |
| why expensive streamers Audiophiles with disposable income can chase after the ultimate gear, seeking the last-mile's diminishing returns. We all know that a $500 streamer doesn't provide twice the sound quality (SQ) of a $250 device, nor does a $1000 streamer sound twic... | |
| What is your front end ? I have streamer (ifi zen / Wiim pro plus) and CD player (Pioneer Elite). I listen mostly to the hi-rez music stored in SSD assessed thru ifi zen. I plan to procure Wiim ultra that also features usb port for local music collection. | |
| Micca 14 Gauge Pure Copper Speaker Wire I picked up 2m (6.5 ft) pair for $27.7 tax / shipping incl. Right off the bat, it sounds as good as my beloved old Audioquest solid speaker cable. | |
| Could Class D really be that good? Agreed on the audible improvements, though I'm not sure about measurable evidence, as I couldn't find any supporting data. Nevertheless, I recently swapped in an op amp called "Oracle II dual" on the Fosi V3, based on the recommendation from Virtu... | |
| Surge protector Hi OP: I meant to say that I use a Trip Lite everywhere except my PC because I have an Uninterruptable Power Supply. @erik_squires & all 1. Most of power strips with surge protection under Trip Lite, Furman brands referred here has EMI/RFI... | |
| Power cords: does length matter? @pennfootball71 Shouldn’t generalize based on limited exposure. The standard length of SR cables is indeed 1.75 meters, but custom versions of certain models like the Venom HC v2 can be made in any desired length with various connectors. The "stan... | |
| Power cords: does length matter? And people do not find the sound difference bet. 1m and 2m pc is simply because their system is not revealing enough, right? Learn something new every day! The proof I would like to see if how much difference in noise filtering capability can ac... | |
| Power cords: does length matter? So, basically, dealer (Nordost) said "2m works the best for it to really filter." As much as I like the optimal design, I just think whoever states the "fact" he think it is also bears the burden of proof. I really do not want to get into the "bo... | |
| Power cords: does length matter? I forgot who made this claim before in this forum, but essentially, his theory is that a 2m PC works the best because it functions like a power conditioner. I don’t know whether it’s true or the rationale behind it. I have no clue why a 2m PC woul... | |
| Streamers under $1500 Given all the positive raved review, I am inclined to try Cambridge CXN 10 or AXN 10 too but it does not offer USB output. Even the higher end model such as CXN 100 (cxn v2) does not have it either. Without it, how can the streamer spins out high ... |
