Best Mesh WiFi System
doni has already made a choice, but for others who may be interested...I've been using Asus routers for many years (over a decade easily), so I am partial to the brand and accustomed to the user interface. About 5 years ago when Mesh came on the r... 
How many watts??
As has been said by others...More information is needed, specifically what are the speaker's rated sensitivity. If the sensitivity is low (below 87dB) then you'll need more amp power than speakers with higher sensitivity (above 90dB). Digging deep... 
why do so many discussions turn contentious?
I think it’s because many of these (mostly) guys have a lot of money/time/effort invested in the hobby, and it has become a significant part of their self-identity. Different ideas threaten that investment and identity, so they lash-out in defense... 
My Experience With Tekton
I agree with everything the OP said about Tekton sound. I was not the original owner and have never had contact with Eric our anyone at Tekton, so have to take his word on his comments about service.I had the DI’s (with factory upgrade, spikes and... 
Audio deals you bought that seem impossible for the price?
Linkwitz Labs LXmini with stereo pair of Phoenix (alt) open-baffle subs - all DIY, which makes the experience so much more rewarding for a hands-on guy like me. 
NAD C-388 w/BluOS2i WiFi Connectivity
I agree it is good to make the unit complete and fully functional - especially if it might be sold or handed down later.However, as long as the BluOS control device (PC, tablet, cellphone) is on the same network, it should be able to control the B... 
NAD C-388 w/BluOS2i WiFi Connectivity
I have moved on to NAD M12, which uses the exact same dongle, and am still using that for wifi connection. Having both C388 and M12 (without built-in amp), I can say that any improvement of sound quality from the 'upgrade' is marginal.I didn't nee...

@parkzhi Seems there are three options, listed best -> worst result:Run Ethernet cable to the unitUse a wifi bridge for improved wifiCall NAD/Lenbrook and order a replacement wifi dongle. NAD support is good when you use their website to open a... 
PS Audio vs NAD M12
@ mmeysarosh, I know this thread is old, but recognized you seem to know quite a bit about NAD M12 - of which I have an interest. Maybe you or someone else could answer some questions about the unit (everyone with M12 might appreciate).I’ve gravit... 
How to find the min and max bending radius of a cable.
The cable manufacturer should be able to answer what is the minimum bend radius. This is a very typical specification for industrial cables, especially those marketed/intended for continuously moving/bending applications. For home audio purposes, ... 
Bookshelf to replace Martin Logan Source
If you want simple great value, stick with the T50 or contenders (LXmini is not simple). If I recall correctly, in the same price range are Sony, Pioneer, and Dayton Audio (PartsExpress) - all have an excellent value offering. Think the Dayton Aud... 
Bookshelf to replace Martin Logan Source
@argonatz The Polk T50 are a terrific value. I think there are other options in the same price range that might compare favorably. Check Audioholics website for shootout that includes T50 and similar competitors.My T50's ended up in my son's syste... 
NAD C-388 w/BluOS2i WiFi Connectivity
BTW, replacing the supplied Unex DNUA-93F (WiFi dongle that comes with BluOS2i MDC card) with  TP-Link Archer T3U Plus does not work.I think it has to do with a feature of the Unex DNUA-93F called "Off-load capability".Has anyone successfully rep...

I posted this on another Amazon thread (that already existed), but here's the email I received...We have some great news for you – going forward, there will be no extra charge for HD as part of your Amazon Music Unlimited subscription.You will con... 
audiocircle administration
I'm just trying to buy a NAD M12 that a member has for sale there.All I need is the answer to registration validation question. 5 letters "What type of website is this?" Its a little frustrating, and to be honest, I'm caring less and less. If some...
