| USB Cable being held hostage…Suggestions? Revelation Audio Labs …the sad thing is I have purchased from Brad in the past with great service and his cables are top notch. I have since discovered he has had a history of this behavior in the past. You just don’t know what kind of service ... | |
| To refurbish Peter Gunn modded Maggie's or not? @chazzy12 Heart attack I heard. | |
| Finally! I Made An Informed Choice This looks like a good place to research optical connections: https://www.audioshark.org/threads/lumin-x1-fiber-optic-network-discussions.14265/ | |
| Finally! I Made An Informed Choice Congratulations on the Lumin! Would I benefit from placing an SFP-equipped switch downstream of the powerline adapter, and using an optical SFP connection to the Lumin X1? I have read the Lumin’s really benefit using fiber, but do a search, m... | |
| Is there a ROON sound? @ecat026 The Conductor app sounds more transparent and resolving, but Roon sounds fuller with better mids. Swap your word "conductor" with "squeeze" and that is exactly what I hear, using a different streamer and converter, different speaker... | |
| Best Cheap DAC Streamer @charleyprice Did you get the Wiim Ultra? How is it? | |

| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes @nonoise I can't view that. I must not have paid the 25% tariff, so it wouldn't load. I know it wasn't addressed to me anyway. @lalitk Doing very well friend! hope you are doing the same! Yes the Eufrodites are what I am listening to at the mome... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes He says it all boils down to galvanic isolation. More food for thought. I have no dog in this fight. with an forum alias of @nonoise that goes without saying. | |
| Grimm MU2 Experience You have an exceptional DAC...you should get your hands on an MU1 or a Taiko or an Antipodes to really hear what your specific dac is capable of. Sounds like the combo that @tonywinga has put together. Haven’t seen a post from him lately thoug... | |
| Can using a bad tube hurt an amplifier? Just had Fedex drop off the replacement Gold Lion 300b, inserted it in the amp, and voila, music is playing again. Just one $5 220uf Rubycon capacitor was all that needed replacing. Lucky the cap went first, and not after various other parts a... | |
| Can using a bad tube hurt an amplifier? @buellrider97 Yes we suffer reliably issues, tube issues and the jabs from the SS crowd and now the class D crowd. but those other amps are not bulletproof, I might argue they are no more reliable than tube amps. I wouldn't say I was an earl... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes Did we ever move past the question: Why does one vibrating stylus in a groove of vinyl sound different than another? Has anyone asked for proof how different turntable setups sound different? Or does everyone just accept that they do? Why don'... |
