| Is it O.K. To Speculate Re: Company Stability Here? @curiousjim I’m sympathetic to keeping politics out of threads but mentioning that new tariffs may impact Canadian manufacturers isn’t being political. It isn’t the same as discussing the merits of tariffs or commenting on the politicians that ... | |
| Is it O.K. To Speculate Re: Company Stability Here? Yes there is no guarantee that a company the size of Sony will provide good service. I personally won’t ever buy Marantz after having an extremely bad experience with them. However I used Sony as a comparator to the boutique companies that most ... | |
| MissingCDs and records The Wiim was installed. For $100 this has to be the best value in Audio | |
| Melco Audio N100 Won't Pair with App Have you done the latest firmware update for the N100? Are you using Ethernet for the N100? Is the tablet on the same network as the N109 and is it using the latest update? Have you used other streamers with the tablet? There is a Melco su... | |
| MissingCDs and records @rvpiano thank you. It’s on Income Tax Day, April 15, an easy date to remember. Today’s project is to install the Wiim Streamer that arrived yesterday. Thanks for the good wishes | |
| Cannot do 5.1 then does 3.1 make a difference or just stick to 2.1? I have increasing issues with dialog and find that upping the output a notch from the center channel helps. | |
| MissingCDs and records I’m having a knee replacement in April. For various logistical reasons I will be using the basement bedroom for recovery. I have a 5.1 surround sound system here, also my turntable, but no streamer. I just ordered a Wiim streamer to add to the ... | |
| Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo Once your favorite Internet station goes to a decent bit rate it’s a lot more reliable than the analog FM signal which even with the best tuner and antenna can be kayoed by weather and interference from other sources in a large urban area. And on... | |
| Latest BluOS update doesn't work with my Node 130 I gave up on Bluesound years ago, due to frequent service disruptions caused by updates. I used to try to avoid the updates but sometimes that would start updating automatically so that isn’t an option either | |
| Melco Audio N100 Won't Pair with App The Melco Apo doesn’t work that well. Essentially it’s the mconnect app with the Melco name badge on it. So I just stopped using it and downloaded mconnect which works much better. My N100 recognizes mconnect without difficulty. Melco lack of CS ... | |
| Moon 390 Network Streamer Glad to hear it | |
| Warm sounding phono cartridge If the OP notices a significant increase in surface noise, pops/clicks, after changing the cartridge, then it doesn’t make sense that all of his vinyl would have suddenly deteriorated. He seems to have a decent phono pre amp. Perhaps there is ju... | |
| Moon 390 Network Streamer I think I saw a post on Reddit some time back that Moon was having some issues, but I’ve tried to dig it up and can’t. I think that one of their founders had passed and there might have been an issue about their future but I guess that it fortuna... | |
| Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo I sometimes listen to WFMT in analog but it just doesn’t compare with the digital feed at 320 bps. The analog feels like it has a hole in the motor the soundstage, even with the Magnum Dynalab tuner. I go to Detroit frequently and agree that W... | |
| Tune-In Stations With Great Sound Go for the stations with the highest bit rate. WFMT here in Chicago broadcasts at 320 bps and sounds a lot better than the analog feed. Somehow Radio Venice, at 128 bps, manages to sound excellent as well |
