| 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... | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 My "List" is totally open - I just mentioned three that I was somewhat familiar with at this time. | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 @decooney - thanks for the article link on the Razz. I have communicated with Gregg at Volti and he has been helpful. Since I am in the southeast, I plan on making a roadtrip to TN to hear his speakers in the next 6 months. | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 @carlsbad2 .... I don't have an issue with a bit of drama or you being oldschool :) As I mentioned my speakers sound pretty good with the music I am listening to now and if 3 or 4 way speakers open up the soundstage with my set up, I will certai... | |
| Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC Great thread .... I was looking at the LTA web site and it appears you are able to preorder their Aero DAC for February delivery. I can't wait to hear the reviews early next year on this DAC from fellow forum members. | |
| Streamer question @jzzmusician I was in a similar position using my BluSound node to stream to a DAC - in my case it was a Schitt Yggdrasil LIM. I did upgrade the BS node with a LPSU and Sbooster power supply and it made a noticeable difference in the sound quali... |
