| Made the Move and Not looking back! The thing with Roon is you can run it on anything. The documentation does list minimum spec requirements for various platforms but it’s up to the user to integrate the hardware and software in many cases. Results can easily vary. The nice thing a... | |

| Made the Move and Not looking back! I think Roon is awesome. It sounds great, does it all and runs on most anything. It’s a music lover’s dream. Not the only player in the game but a superstar nonetheless. I did the trial and bought the lifetime license. One of the best $800 or so a... | |
| Appropriate Apple table for Roon Are you talking about running Roon core on the tablet or Roon endpoint? | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? People who own the really expensive stuff and still find it lacking assuming its well set up look to whatever else they can at that point to make further tweaks. Wires are a prime candidate. The logic is you have expensive stuff and don’t want to ... | |

| Ohm Walsh 4.300.2 opinions Sounds like circa 1990s second generation 10” Walsh drivers mounted on original Walsh 4 cabinets. Should sound very good if drivers in good shape and driven by a decent power high current amp. I have Super Walsh 2s which are 3rd generation... | |
| Best Forum to hear experienced audiophiles exchange thoughts? Most recently my actual purchases have been influenced most by what hifi and Darko websites in that I find the info provided by both to be consistently both practical and reliable. | |
| Best Forum to hear experienced audiophiles exchange thoughts? It’s an imperfect world. That includes hifi forums. I’ve found this one to be most informative even though the signal to noise ratio can be fairly low at times. That’s because, succeed or not, the “high end” users here do tend to strive for the b... | |
| Dac that has tone and timing? Hmm the DAC built into my Cambridge Evo 150 would seem to fit the bill but the whole shebang only costs about $3K. Added Roon recently and that in particular with the Cambridge seems to deliver meat on the bones along with attack quite well. “Mea... | |
| Internet Noise: A Pest in the Machine Yay! Glad to hear it’s better now. | |
