| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? @mitch2 thanks for that info. So given all that, my bet is any difference in sound is due mainly to differences in the roon server implementations. Can’t totally rule out increased jitter with one device attached versus another, but from what yo... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? @mitch2 Please confirm this is Roon core/server running on both? If so its possible different versions of Roon are running on each. If so, tehn its very possible the resulting sound could be somewhat different. Even if same version running ... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? I would tend to agree with @mdalton and plan to do some posts very soon relating some recent experiences/experiments I have done that support those conclusions. | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? @mclinnguy it’s not wrong. The op is talking about the mojo device specifically and as a server. I am not familiar with it but from what I read it is both: an “integrated” server and streamer in one box , but same reasons would apply regarding why... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? @audphile1 he is talking about servers not streamers. Only two things I can think off that could make servers sound different as alluded to above: 1)noise introduced on the network wires that make it through the streamer to DAC signal path and a... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? Is the DAC jitter resistant? | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? BTW, I use Wifi/wireless connections with all my streamers mainly out of convenience but sound quality is top notch I’d say as long as all wifi connections are strong, even with high res files streamed from Qobuz. If streamer wifi connection is we... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? Power supply on a server alone could only impact sound quality if it is noisier and that noise leaks into teh network connection and makes its way all the way to a DAC with poor jitter rejection. So it is possible but also avoidable in various way... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? If we are talking about a music server only with no on-board streamer, then teh connection between the external streamer and the server is a basic client/server data connection like any other application on a network. THere is absolutely nothing t... | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? I will say that if one attempts to account for how modern digital audio technology performs using the same approach and factors as in teh past with older analog only technologies, they are likely missing the boat to a great extent. Pretty much any... | |
| New streamer I'd add the current line of Cambridge Audio streamers to the list. Very solid performers and very good values that do not get much attention in these high end audio parts, which is a mistake. | |
| What makes One Music Server Sound Better than Another? Don’t know but it probably has something to do with how the DSP in each is implemented. With digital streaming pretty much anything is possible. | |
| Revel Salon2s: Seeking Advice It’s totally up to you. Personally I am a Revel fan. Some will prefer Focal. Go figure! | |
| Why do we demand so much from our systems? Extra extra read all about it! OCD | |
| All speakers have a little EQ built in Oh no! Please say it ain't so... I guess if they all got it right all speakers would sound the same. Long live EQ! |
