| Streaming vs. CD I just added the same Cambridge streamer that the OP uses. I bought it because of its claims to use mpegDASH to improve Internet Radio, and because I wanted to add an AirPlay device to my two channel system. Unfortunately the RCA interconnects f... | |
| Wyred 4 Sound vs. Roon Nucleus The Roon Nucleus is a piece of hardware that Roon developed to specifically run their program. I tried my Roon trial on an aging MacAir and the computer severely overheated when it got hung up trying to run the program so I can appreciate where a... | |
| Advice on a streamer Be advised, the mini DSP advertises AirPlay compatibility, but it doesn’t work with AirPlay 2 | |
| Budget External DAC Recommendations I’ve used the Node with a Digital Link III, which had been sitting unused on a shelf after upgrading. I was using the Node in a second system, actually a HT system with a $1K Denon AVR 5.1. The Node, of course was playing in Stereo. I didn’t he... | |
| Best combination of HT and sound Budget?And are you looking for a processor/AVR only or speakers as well?I am not an analog Audiophile but what kind of a phono preamp do you need-mm or mc? Most AVRs in the 1k range are mm only.And do you want Atmos? | |
| Anyone compare LUMIN U1 mini to Sim Mind 2? Djones what did you not like about the Mind2 interface? Also, since you have tried so many streamers, do you have any experience with the Cambridge Audio CXN V2? | |
| New Bluesound Node vs Cambridge CXN v2 for High Res Streaming? I stand corrected…the Cambridge does indeed have the Wolfson DAC | |
| Apple TV Set Up I just looked at Darko videos which answer my question. | |
| Apple TV Set Up What is the best way to listen to Apple Music? Are any streamers compatible with it or does one have to use Air Play? Currently I am using Air Play with my Apple TV, which is the previous generation ATV, and it sounds similar to my old iTunes do... | |
| What I’m looking for in a streaming transport Have you checked the Cambridge Audio streamer? | |
| Paradigm Studio sub 15 vs Paradigm signature sub 25 I actually own both those subs. I use the same AVR in two different systems, the Anthem 520. The rest of the speakers are different. In one system, the fronts are small monitors and the sub handles everything below about 90; the other system ha... | |
| New Bluesound Node vs Cambridge CXN v2 for High Res Streaming? The OP was interested in the Node, not the Vault. It doesn’t seem like he needs the storage and disc ripping of the Vault. Bluesound has upgraded the DAC. I still suspect it is the limiting factor but I heard the new DAC I when I went to auditi... | |
| New Bluesound Node vs Cambridge CXN v2 for High Res Streaming? I don’t know the Cambridge except for what I’ve read. The Node can be impressive and always seems to be compatible with every streaming service around | |
| CD Player Recommendations… Does Rega still make CD players? I once owned a Rega Apollo that went for about a grand and was smooth, refined, and polite, possibly what the OP was interested in. I haven’t heard much about their digital side in the last several years | |
| Need opinions on duping CD's OP I had burned many CDs using one of those machines in the nineties and was almost always of the opinion that the copy sounded superior when played back on my regular system. That machine died and then I used an Apple Computer to make copies an... |
