| Best power cord for Audioquest Niagara 1200 It would be an interesting experiment, wouldn't it? Have a mid/low level system, 10K total between conditioner, amp, DAC, and speakers assuming DAC has digital out. All stock power cords but decent IC's and speaker cable. Then introduce a brok... | |
| Best power cord for Audioquest Niagara 1200 @bigtwin For someone with a Niagara 1200 yes it would be ridiculous, IMO, and obviously beyond the budget. My comment was tongue-in-cheek, but in line with your first post- there are plenty of power cord threads to read. To answer the second que... | |
| DAC vs Music Server @mgrif104 Agreed, squeeze sounds much better than Roon on Antipodes as well. It is nice to have both, and it is so easy to switch back and forth. You have other choices too: Roon server/Squeeze player, HQ player, Roon server HQ Player, MPD with... | |
| Comparing streamer/DACs between $5-10k Just found a video of a reviewer talking about his Rose vs. Antipodes K22 FWIW (Yes, not fair as the K22 is quite a bit more, I know) He rambles on quite a bit, so skip to about 14min in if you just want the Rose comparison K22 | |
| Best power cord for Audioquest Niagara 1200 Like what @ghdprentice stated, to answer your question, the Dragon is the best power cord for your whatever you got. | |
| Power cable Advice... @magnuman I am beginning to think you own shares in the company licensed to produce it. It is worth noting that the highly regarded Audioquest Hurricane and Dragon’s do not use Ohno continuous cast copper (or silver in the Dragon) | |
| Antipodes K50 G4 Music Server/Player 👍 Congratulations to both of you. Extremely happy with my decision to go with Antipodes also. The option to go with Roon only, Roon with Squeeze player for increased fidelity, or Squeeze/squeeze for maximum resolution for the best recordings wi... | |
| Knockoffs- how can they just advertise so easily? This is a very difficult problem to fix since the Chinese government has no interest in fixing it. I don't want this thread to get political, but I would say the Chinese Government encourages it. Look at what happened to Nortel from Huawei. | |
| Knockoffs- how can they just advertise so easily? Thanks for the distinction @akg_ca and clarification- counterfeit it is. I was also wondering, since from what I have read Audioquest cables are in fact made in China, that the parts one sees are the genuine products from the same assembly line a... | |
| Knockoffs- how can they just advertise so easily? I do know about counterfeits of course, but I can say other than clicking on the wrong button by mistake when surfing, that is the first time I have been on Aliexpress. I just am shocked it is so blatantly available online, in plain view, and so e... | |
| Roon is snappy responsive now Just filled out a survey today, they care, we'll see what changes are brought forth: Shape Roon's Future Your feedback is important As we start a new chapter with Harman International, we remain comm... | |
| Look at these beauties TMR has the matching power cable! seraphim | |
| AE SP12 or Zavfino Nova OCC? 👍 let us know | |
| Power cable Advice... @audphile1 You have had some Acoustic Zen PC's too, where would you place the Garantua in your list? | |
| AE SP12 or Zavfino Nova OCC? Well, is it possible you could rearrange your system temporarily to get the 20" shorter cables on a demo purpose, just to see if you like them? Then if they tick all the right boxes you send them back and order the 3m ones- there would be no resto... |
