| SB Touch...buh bye. Hello Android Media Box... Hmm, I wonder which OS sounds better, Linux or Android? :-)PErsonally I don't think it matters so much as that the whole concept is implemented well. | |
| CES 2013 most amazing bargain find Thanks. I'd like to see more posts on Audiogon about new truly innovative products, like any that might have been discovered at shows like CES. Feed me more! These look like they might try to compete with smaller Dynaudio Xeos? I'd like to see mor... | |
| SB Touch...buh bye. Hello Android Media Box... SLothman/others,What other similar devices are out there these days? How about the newer Roku boxes? I always figured these would pick up for the old SOundbridges for audio among all the rest but was never quite sure and ended up switching to SB (... | |
| SB Touch...buh bye. Hello Android Media Box... "If it supports USB audio, there should be no difference between this device and a Mac Mini"Actually, there would appear to be many technical differences between the two. ALso the price is way different. IS there a sound quality difference or othe... | |
| Should Sound Quality of Computer Audio be improved "Mapman- I am not frustrated with the complexities of Computer Audio. Certainly confused with the Salesman line of "CONVENIENCE" based on that complexity. WOW! What a wake-up call THAT was! I say this because I still do use Computer Audio, and sti... | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers that work best with SS Rrog,I won't put any limitations on it. Thanks. | |
| SB Touch...buh bye. Hello Android Media Box... "I am unsure of what negative influences there may be on the digital signal of this device in its current configuration (chipset, firmware, power source, etc.) However, I am certain that one of the best things going for it is the fact that it is e... | |
| I don't like the sound of my system. Help please. I heard a current generation ARC switching amp recently at Lyric in NYC. Brief audition but sounded promising. | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers that work best with SS Lin,It does seem to me there are two extremes for best/optimal performance in general:1) solid state amp + low efficiency speakers2) tube amp + high efficiency speakersThen there are all the greyer areas that lie in between.I think there is merit ... | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers that work best with SS HI Al,Yes, I found Ralph's point as stated interesting as well.My Triangle Titus speakers are much smaller, not as efficient, and I do not know details of impedance curve. They might fall into a similar category as Daedalus though in regards to pe... | |
| SB Touch...buh bye. Hello Android Media Box... Interesting device. Might have to give it a try. I own two SB Touches running external DACs currently. Used Roku Soundbridges prior with same DACs. Sound quality has never been an issue for me.Multifunction devices like this would indeed appear to... | |
| And now for something completely different: Bassoons rule! | |
| What's the best way to clean vacuum tube pins? Very carefully! | |
| Sound is DARK / FORWARD / TRANSPARENT? Ironic how insufficient the internet truly is as a medium for understanding hi fi or high end sound. Words will always fall short. Yet its all we got to communicate to others what we hear. HElp me please! | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bond,Your findings with the different power cord plugs are interesting.Are you sure the only difference was the type of plug? Could the connection to the cord itself perhaps have been more sound with the new plug versus old?In any case, interestin... |
