| Audio Mirror Tubadour V Thanks for your perspectives @smallmouthrule and @dhungana. I have been in contact with Vlad who has been very responsive with questions. I am sure I will end up with a Tubadour in the future. | |
| Audio Mirror Tubadour V @dhungana Thanks for your detailed updates. Interesting observation of better sound with the addition of the DDC before the AM V. I have heard that Vlad is using some DDC tech in the V. Perhaps this is a case of more can't hurt, and can or should ... | |
| Which LPS is worth it for Bluesound Node 2i? I have the PD creative board and Sbooster for a Node 2i. As mentioned by others a nice upgrade. I use it as a steamer only. Brent at Fidelity Audio in the UK also builds power boards and linear power supplies for the Node. I had him build his Ref... | |
| Art Blakely & The Jazz Messengers Caravan (2024 Remaster) - anyone heard it? This is on Qobuz now. Search "Caravan (Remastered 2024)" and you will see it. | |

| Audio Mirror Tubadour V Any updates on how the V compares to the III and IV now that they are broken in? | |
| Question/Help Needed: Boomer who is totally inexperienced with DACs and streamers. It looks like the BlueSound has optical and USB outs...so would I connect one of them to the corresponding input in the amp/DAC? Connecting to your built in DAC with USB will support higher resolution files compared to Optical. | |
| Question/Help Needed: Boomer who is totally inexperienced with DACs and streamers. Yes, you can send a digital signal from the streamer (BlueSound or other) to the input in your built in DAC. And yes, control the streamer from a tablet or phone, and in the case of BlueSound, a PC as well. And the BluSound Node has a built in DA... | |
| Question/Help Needed: Boomer who is totally inexperienced with DACs and streamers. Since your Alexa device has a digital out then you should be able to connect directly to the built in DAC of the NAD. From the link you sent, it looks like the DAC accepts USB in. If it does not have COAX in, then you may need to convert COAX to ... | |
| Streamer question jzzmusician, you say you are accessing the Spotify and Qobuz apps from your iPad and NOT from within the the BluOS app. That's sound like you are running the songs locally on the tablet and sending them to the Node through wifi. If I am correct, t... | |
| What to expect if I import an amp and preamp from a Japan seller via US eBay Bought a Luxman integrated from Japan. Listening to it now, sounds as wonderful as it should. I bought from Buyee Japan, my second purchase. Only paid about an extra $200 for shipping and import etc. A proper step down will not degrade the sound. ... | |
| Linlai KT88 experience? @donsachs, have you had a chance to listen to the KT88-'s yet? | |
| HT Receivers Compared What are you using the AVR for? Important to know. For Home Theatre they should be similar. Which is what sales reps will be thinking about when try and compare them. For two channel music there will be differences, but none of the AVR's will prov... | |
| Integrated amplifier for Fritz Speakers At $1500 you should consider used. Sugden A21 integrated may work nicely. Well reviewed and lots of tube like qualities. | |
| Marantz vs. Oppo or Theta For HT duty only, the Marantz will be great. Had one and now a Denon for HT. Same company, similar HT performance. And all the modern software/firmware to manage modern HT sound decoding is a plus. |
