| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 @wolf_garcia nice set up! I will get an XA-25 at some point in the future. Concentrating on the speakers for now. | |
| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 @doni @daledeee1 @bjesien - appreciate the thoughtful suggestions. I have my eye on a pair of Volti Razz. I would definitely look at the Forte IV's but they are to wide for the tight space on the right side based on furniture layout. Plus the... | |
| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 Thanks to all who responded! Some fantastic suggestions and very helpful observations. I am going to take a pass on the Spendors - they just don't seem to be a good fit with my F8 and I have a few other solid choices to evaluate. My large room ... | |
| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 @mlsstl - The room is large and a combination open kitchen/great room ( 23' X27' ) with 10 foot ceilings. The speakers are on the back wall and either side of a fire place, around 12' apart. Listening volumes are somewhat low - jazz, R&B a... | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line Great advice and info on this thread. I obtained the N 200 a few months back and the "coaching" from @lalitk & Juan @blisshifi was spot on. Happy with this in my system and both Conductor with Qobuz are bullet proof. Can't wait to see the i... | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal I have used both Tidal and Qobuz over the past 6 months streaming through my Aurender N 200. Both work well and no hiccups on Conductor with either streaming service. Based on my music preference - jazz, female vocals, R&B - I am finding Qob... | |
| Digital newbie Plenty of good "coaching" above and primers. I was in the same lane you are in a few years ago. Confused about DAC's, streamers, ethernet connectivity, streaming services, etc. I started with the BluSound Node 2i and educated myself along the w... | |
| Fyne or Great? Appreciate your observations.... it's a crap shoot on selecting/replacing a speaker if you don't try it in your own system. Agree with your comment on the Zu being lively and do appreciate this about the Zu. I might be patient and seek out a Zu ... | |
| is anyone using an Aurender streamer with Schiit Yggdrasil? I can chime in based on owning a Yggdrasil LIM and the Aurrender N200 streamer. My digital path took me initially from the BlueSound node to adding the Yggy while utilizing the node for streaming. I then replaced the node completely with the Aur... | |
| Which LPS is worth it for Bluesound Node 2i? Also a quick side note worth mentioning is that Upscale Audio offers an S Booster interface board and coupled with the 5-6 V Sbooster power supply it would be a one stop shop - $379 for the power supply/$149 for the interface board. I have no aff... | |
| Which LPS is worth it for Bluesound Node 2i? Just ran across your inquiry and wanted to give you a few thoughts based on my digital journey starting with the BS Node. I had the Node for 6 months and decided I wanted to explore the benefits of digital vs my analog rig. I initially added an L... | |
| Aurender Model Choices Great thread here with input from a number of trusted sources that I "listened" to when going through my streamer selection process six months ago. I decided on Aurender and was going to go with a new N150 but decided instead to search for a gen... | |
| AARP article on streaming hirez audio High res, Healthcare and Harmonious Seniors! I get it...... The pic of the couple dancing by the four Sonos speakers disguised as candles is really the center piece of the article 😎 | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 @snopro - I will definitely be in Nashville and will check out the Horning and WVL Son speakers at Gestalt Audio. Many thanks for the heads up! | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 Appreciate all the input to date. Helpful and food for thought ..... A couple of points - re room size - yes, the room is large but I have limited space on a back wall either side of the fireplace for speaker placement. There would be no wa... |
