| Occasional Sound Imbalance Issue @sworksone my imbalance issue is to the right. You wouldn’t believe the lengths I’ve gone to isolate the issue. Completely tore up the room as I thought at first that it was the room. Started replacing individual components just to see, but no ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @lordmelton You are right I agree my system is set up to be revealing. But I am attempting to get to a sound that is both romantic and revealing. I find that the Gryphon and it’s DAC help achieve that, with a richer sound and a seductive midrange.... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @lordmelton , just curious, have you compared the AES interface of your N20 to USB? | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @audioman58 , can you let me know the general characteristics of the Antipodes Antipodes K50, the MU1, the Aurender N20, and also the Innuos Zenith (Mk3) when combined with the PhoenixUSB Reclocker? From your post I imagine you have testing these.... | |
| Occasional Sound Imbalance Issue Lol, thanks for the tip… | |
| Occasional Sound Imbalance Issue Also, it’s not that I’m nuts :) I almost started thinking I may be, which is why I involved the family in a blind test and asked them to describe any issues they heard, without telling them… | |
| Occasional Sound Imbalance Issue @ghdprentice @noromance , sorry I was unclear on one critical point: it does NOT take just a few minutes to clear up the issue. It takes hours, and days in some cases, to resolve. One thing that often clears the issue is shutting off the switch ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @lalitk , I too thought I read something about Innuos supporting AES on their latest Pulse series (dedicated streaming players), but I checked earlier today and they don’t list AES under the list of supported interfaces. UPDATE: My mistake, I was... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @ghasley , great rationale; makes perfect sense. As an aside, I wonder why Innuos does not support AES as the others do. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @grannyring , as I’ve mentioned in past threads For a long time I didn’t hear the benefit of Innuos Sense over Roon that you and pretty much everyone else hears, until fairly recently. Not sure if it was due to a version change in either’s softwar... | |
| Thoughts on Shunyata and Transparent? @swede58 , glad to share my findings. In 2019 I also tried a Valhalla 2 power cord from Nordost. I found that I really enjoyed the sound of that cord, so much so that recall staying up all night listening to music. But I ultimately found that it h... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @ghasley I’ve been wondering about this exact comparison - how the MU1 compares to others without its upsampling “advantage” engaged. So thank you for this!!! I find it surprising that the MU1 without upsampling isn’t more ahead of the Zenith. Th... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Interesting philosophical discussion on merits of upsampling…. Despite the title of my thread I have enough experience in this hobby to know that any “conclusion” I think I’ve reached may later be proven totally wrong! It’s so easy to reach incorr... | |
| Thoughts on Shunyata and Transparent? Oh, and I did test the Sigma NR as well, but it didn’t go very well. Something didn’t sound right, even after I ran it in for many days.. I chalked it up to the fact that Shunyata only had a demo with a 20A connector handy, so they sent a 20A to 1... | |
| Thoughts on Shunyata and Transparent? @swede58 , @jafant , I ended up going with the Audioquest Dragon for the Diablo 300. The Shunyata Omega was really good. But I found it was loose in the socket of my amp, even when using the hokey plastic shim that comes with the cord (Shunyata... |
