Why does streaming need to be so complex From what I read I’m pretty sure iphone cannot do true 24/192.....yet but can’t say for sure. If so, its possble apps running on iphone know the limits and resample higher res sources to lower res to be able to play but not at original resolution.... | |

Why does streaming need to be so complex I use the camera adaptor with a Chord Mojo DAC and it sounds fine. Have you tried it? That’s the only way to know. Not a big investment. Many people (including me) use it with very high quality headphone setups as well. You do need a compatible co... | |

Am I the only one who doesn’t love Harbeth P3esr? Lots of very strong competition at their price point and they are very small compared to many so one better really take to what Harbeth tends to do uniquely I would expect. That would be vocals, which is very important thing to do well. | |
High end audio - mid range ears I strongly recommend them to anyone interested. Should be easily returnable as well if needed I would think via Amazon.I still run 7 different pair of speakers in 6 different rooms and enjoy each setup very much. | |

High end audio - mid range ears With the technology available these days, $600 buys a system that can compete with the big boys. The key is to get in step with modern technology and what it can achieve.Gotta move forward, not backwards. | |
Something For The Fuse Guys ... I’m listening to a pair of $600 active speakers with 4 built in amps, dac, DSP and all built in via iPhone and Spotify as I type and thinking even with a wireless Bluetooth connection this stuff need not cost a fortune anymore these days if the ve... | |
