| Klipsch Heresy IV - not what I was expecting I need to get to the local dealer and hear the IVs. Wondering if they sound different from IIIs other than extended ported bass. | |
| Did you ever hear exquisite electronics at a show?? The speakers always get the credit or not but I do take note of amps that sound good in systems for future reference. The more data points when it comes time to buy the better. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Dude,Oh well. At least he tested the jitterbug in the right place where a reduction in jitter might matter. Unfortunately there appears to be no useful effect. Tgris,Most streamers do buffer data in memory to isolate the D to A process from any mi... | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? As I read it that Audioquest Jitterbug device is for use with USB DAC connections, not USB drives, which makes sense. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Djones if the streamer is accessing files on a remote device directly via a network file share, the file share protocol may be a bottleneck that could limit bandwidth. Better to run music server software on the device hosting the files and allow s... | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Bits per second for cd resolution audio versus USB is what matters. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? ...so Uber looking back at your original question your configuration with uSB connected direct to streamer fits the bill. Your streamer is serving as both a music server and streamer with usb attached so it could produce more noise and jitter that... | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Anyone can look those numbers up for themselves with google if in doubt. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? One possible problem scenario with a usb attached drive might be if the computer is both a server and streamer and the USB drive attached results in the computer producing more noise that introduces jitter in the streamer to DAC interface. That is... | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? No surprise there. 😘 | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Uber what I am telling you is technical fact not opinion. It’s how computers work. If I got something wrong or am missing something I am all ears.You can take it or leave it. That’s your choice. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? In this case, there is only one plausible answer. USB or NAS storage alone has nothing to do with sound quality for the reason I explained. If you hear a difference there is another reason for that. | |
| Stereo Receivers from the past... Quad 12l?http://www.audioreview.com/product/speakers/bookshelf-speakers/quad/12l.htmlWere it me, I'd put one of the old McIntosh tube receivers to those just to spice things up a bit. | |
| Any difference in SQ from USB drive storage to NAS playback? Jitter is relevant to the digital to analog sound conversion process between music streaming source and DAC downstream but not here in the case of either usb disk storage or NAS. Neither has anything directly to do with sound quality, just digital... | |
| Stereo Receivers from the past... I’ve heard a lot of receivers over the years. and the Nakamichis were some of the best. Hard to come by these days though. What speakers will be used? |
