| A Skeptics Digital Upgrade Journey Thanks for all the positive feedback. I'm good for now on digital upgrades with the possible exception of a power cable for the DAC but have no doubt a higher end dedicated streamer would take it to another level. I emailed Ray at Zavfino to s... | |
| Ideal USB cable length, streamer to DAC? helpful responses thank you all | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh When I eventually go separates ARC is top of the list. | |
| Birthday DAC +1 for Black Ice Audio Glass FX Tube. 2 weeks new to my system. Customer service is outstanding. It’s a big upgrade from the NODE’s DAC. The supplied tubes after 200 hrs is a tiny bit harsh on the high end, but I’ve got some 50’s era Mullard’s co... | |
| COX Cable Modem Question @ghdprentice This is really helpful, thank you. I think I’m good for now as far as the IT side. | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh @ejspain2020 good luck with your project! | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh Some hopeful news...glad you didn't throw the baby out with the bath water:) | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh @ejspain2020 The OP didn't complain about not getting deep bass his issue is "System sounds thin and bright or harsh". The 50Hz spec is correct but that doesn't account for the room. As an example the 'heartbeat' in Breathe sounds remarkably good... | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh I'm going to say the Harbeths are just not cutting it. Small two way speakers seldom do (unless you like a lean sound). You need a bigger 3 way to get the warm midrange you are looking for. Nonsense. I have the 30.2xd's and the warm midrange w... | |
| Ideal USB cable length, streamer to DAC? @kota1 and quality not $$$ I'm returning a $300 Analysis Plus Digital Crystal Cable (COAX) because the no-name USB cable supplied with the DAC sounded better. (I know comparing COAX to USB is not apples to apples). We'll see how the Zavfino USB ... | |
| Ideal USB cable length, streamer to DAC? @donquichotte Interesting - hopefully the longer cable works for me too - I just ordered a 1.8m USB cable from Zavfino - it's a standard length (returnable) and I assume (hope) there is a good reason why 1.8m is their standard length (other than i... | |
| BS Node N130 USB to External DAC won't work Got it working, just kept restarting, changing input selections, random stuff. | |
| BS Node N130 USB to External DAC won't work @mcleans what is the purpose of this embedded URL? | |
| BS Node N130 USB to External DAC won't work @skoczylas thanks for the FB tip! @mlsstl I do have the latest firmware and confirmed with BS support that USB should work with an external DAC. Thanks for looking it up. I think it just buggy software... I'll reach out again to BS support | |
| Potential Pair of Great Bookshelf Speakers for Sale! I have the 30.2 XDs and use them as mains for my Yamaha RX3080 AVR for HT and just swap the speaker cables for 2 channel from my Raven Osprey. Best of both worlds. Take a look at the Raven Nighthawk. It will power the P3ESR’s nicely and they offe... |
