| 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 ... | |
| Streamers under $1500 I am fully on board with Wiim Pro if it includes a USB port for local music. I know many users have requested this feature from Wiim, but so far they have only implemented it on the Wiim Amp. I hope it is on the road map for next version of Wiim P... | |
| Could Class D really be that good? @jl35 glad can of some help. enjoy listening. | |
| Could Class D really be that good? @atmasphere Ralph, great post and thank you for sharing. I also enjoy your afternoon talk here, which helps me understand some of the intricacies of class D design. | |
| Could Class D really be that good? @jl35 They are pretty much the same based on my recollection after seeing several reviews and demos. I decided on v3 primarily because of its pre-out feature, so I could do bi-amping later on with other class A amp. | |
| Could Class D really be that good? A simple upgrade is to order the Fosi with the 48 volt power brick. Go to ASR to read the recent test report. I did try the 48-volt PSU, but the truth is, it doesn't deliver better sound than the 32-volt PSU at normal listening levels or even a... | |
| IFi Zen Stream connection problem — hardwired from Wi-Fi extender I've found that my WIFI extender tends to lose connection with my router. I eventually took it offline. Some devices are super sensitive to fluctuations in network speed. Even a brief slowdown can kill the connection. My old WiFi extender, whi... | |
| Could Class D really be that good? It's funny how you can find cables labeled as 6N, or even 7N/8N OCC or OFC all over Amazon and AliExpress, and they're incredibly cheap. It's amazing to see the quality control and production efficiency of the plants in China these days??? I am a... | |
| Could Class D really be that good? @eddnog Same here. I made a last-minute switch to the separates based on my instinct. I recalled that the overall package deals were identical during the pledge. |
