| Streamers with best apps? Well what can you make of all this? Basically all apps except possibly Roon are deficient in some way it seems. Bad as it is it seems the Tidal app is as good as it gets unless you want to pay for Roon. | |
| Streamers with best apps? Thanks classdstreamer I get the difference between Chromecast hardware and software so I will need to try and find out if Chromecast is on my CXN. However given that Chromecast is a Google product and Google and Apple don't get on will it work fro... | |
| Streamers with best apps? At least mahler123 seems to understand the problem even if there is no solution as yet. I have never heard of Idagio but will investigate. Does anyone know at what bps rate it streams at or the size of its library? As for using Chromecast I would ... | |
| Streamers with best apps? Thanks guys for your contributions- some useful, some not so much because as far as I know Tidal is the only hi res streaming service available in Australia. Amazon HD and Qobuz are not yet available and may not be in my lifetime as I am 79. In te... | |
| CD Player vs. music streaming As duckworp pointed out one of the major problems with streamers is the quality of the app needed to control content. I bought a Cambridge Audio CXN which sports 2 awful apps. No search function for albums downloaded from Tidal makes it almost imp... | |
| New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps? I tried the Cayman and found it to be the best handling car I had ever driven. The downside was virtually no boot which precluded carrying my golf clubs. So if you need to carry people or golf clubs try the Camaro Hellcat. | |
| MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3? I tried the Orchid, Pagoda, Denafrips Pontus and none made any difference to the sound quality of my system. I ended up buying the Pure Audio Lotus 5 dac. With my all tube set up it added more air, and an overall more dynamic sound but I can't com... | |
| Best speakers out there for Midrange and Highs Maggies or Martin Logans. Nothing beats electrostatics for mids and highs. | |
| What’s the most badass $2k amp I can get? The McCormack would be hard to beat at $2100. | |
| Streaming + DAC questions. Please help this noob! I bought a Cambridge Audio CXN streamer to use with my Pure Audio Lotus 5 DAC. While the sound is great the Cambridge Audio app options are horrendously non functional. I then bought an Auris Blume Bluetooth receiver to connect to the DAC and cou... | |
| Blown away with 2 speakers hifi sound! Enjoy what you are hearing and ignore the nay sayers as there are too many of those on this forum. | |
| Could this be one reason tubes (and perhaps records) sound better? Thank you for your wisdom Mr Dylan | |
| Looking for inexpensive preamp Second Van Alstine but if out of your price range have a look at Y S Audio out of Hong Kong. I had their basic tube pre for a number of years and with a tube change to NOS RCAs it was great, almost as good as the Van Alstine I bought to replace it... | |
| Recommendations for high quality Streaming Audio: I have a Cambridge Audio CXN v2 which, while more expensive, beat the spots off the Bluesound Node 2i. Downside the app is crap and while I was told they are working on a new app, 3 months on and it still hasn't happened. The Bluesound however is... | |
