| OPpo 205.... Awesome !! One thing about the Oppo is future LASER replacement. Question - does a laser go bad if unused? I have NOT used the laser in my Oppo UDP-205 since I have been using it as a DAC since July-2020. Since 2020 July, I use the laser only once a year ... | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits @mahgister , No one bashed any Chinese products. The discussion was how they effectively copy products and sell them blatantly as the same brand. If they were selling as a duplicate brand name, example Sharp Vs Shrap, then that would be different... | |
| 15k for streamer and dac....how much on each? @jaxwired , how much of a difference do you find between the SMSL and the Wyred4Sound DACs that you own? Which one do you prefer? | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits The government of China does not recognize international patent laws and some people take advantage of this. They way "Copyrights" work is China - we have the rights to copy 😄 | |
| Considering a Backert Rhythm 1.4, talk me out of it Go for the new Rhythm 1.4. Get some NOS Mazdas and be mesmerized. Have fun! | |
| Room Acoustics, minimal treatment and measurements Nicely done!! I agree - most people are better off treating their rooms and keeping their existing loudspeakers. Most folks assume that their loudspeakers are not compatible with their room and keep searching for a better one. I found that if we t... | |
| Hurray for Wadax! Yay! And it only costs $45k 😁 I'm surprised other manufacturers haven't offered us this option with their CD players. My Oppo does all those discs. And now there are newer players as Oppo's replacement. So I am not sure what you meant. | |
| PC Software You posted similar thread in October last year. Are you expecting different results this time around? Why not try the free version and try for yourself? Good luck. | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers I don't know but I get the feeling that many of us are letting our distaste for the said individual influence our views on Tekton. And Having said that, a little humility shown by the Tekton owner won't do any harm either @arafiq YOU have N... | |
| Overkill for small room any suggestions? I don't want you to have any health issue. So your wife's suggestion is the best 😊 | |
| What’s the best DAC < 6k (system specific) @hysteve , Trying to figure out how to listen to dsd as I gather it may be even better than pcm. This will depend on, if you have DSD files OR are using a SACD transport/player with HDMI out. If the latter, then you probably need either a D.BO... | |
| Overkill for small room I heard the Dynaudio Special 40 with Moon electronics at Quintessence Audio in Chicago, and man that was some music/sound. Immediately grabbed my attention and I could not just NOT sit down and listen. That was some special pairing. But the room a... | |
| Deezer streaming Thanks for the feedback @carlsbad2 . I liked their streaming quality and interface too. It is a shame that their Connect does not work as seamlessly as Spotify's. Also recommendations in Deezer work only in Desktop client and not on the tablet/pho... | |
| Overkill for small room I have not heard this specific one, but heard the floor standers. At the same time I also heard the Special 40 from Dynaudio. These should be good speakers for the room size you mention. And you are correct - these might need an amplifier that is ... | |
