| Connecting Ground Connectors (Torus and Gryphon Diablo 300)? Thanks @dpop. You are absolutely right there is no isolation between devices on the Torus. I’ve been told by industry/electrical experts that isolation between components isn’t that important, but who knows, it could very well be my issue. Grea... | |
| Connecting Ground Connectors (Torus and Gryphon Diablo 300)? Thanks @dpop. While tonality is one aspect that changes, other differences include better dynamics, and a deeper soundstage with more air. I wouldn’t think that less dynamics and and shallower soundstage would be more “correct”, but who knows. Th... | |
| Connecting Ground Connectors (Torus and Gryphon Diablo 300)? @dpop , when the reclocker is connected to the Torus, the sound becomes less weighty with less bass, there is less dynamics, scale, and drama to the sound, and there is less air around instruments and vocals with not as deep of a soundstage. Midr... | |
| Innuos Pulsar - Some Interesting Info for Innuos Owners I think the Pulsar JUST started shipping this month. Hopefully the demo doesn’t take too long to send.. probably will be a while with the holidays… | |
| Entreq and Innuos? @lollipopguild , yes you are right, my PhoenixUSB sounds best plugged directly into the wall on a circuit that is not used by any other gear. And the rest of my Innuos gear absolutely sounds best when connected to the Torus. When the PhoenixUSB i... | |
| Entreq and Innuos? Ah, just realized these boxes are not what I thought they were. What I need is some sort of device to link my grounds of my two dedicated circuits. But these Entrq boxes are also intriguing! | |
| Entreq and Innuos? This is a timely topic for me. I have my three Innuos boxes (network switch, streamer/server, USB reclocker) plugged into my Torus RM20 which is plugged into a dedicated 20A circuit. My Diablo 300 is plugged directly into a second dedicated 20A ... | |
| Innuos Pulsar - Some Interesting Info for Innuos Owners Well, like I mentioned it’s kind of not too late…. After selling your two boxes and extra cords this upgrade weirdly doesn’t cost a whole lot. Still, I’m going to see how the Pulsar performs in my system before committing. I’m also curious if my... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? @soix Yes I’ve read lots of great reviews of Townshend for sure, although people complain of the price. I did read a few odd accounts where folks said they didn’t like the “tonal tuning” of Townshends, but that was just a few and every system and ... | |
| New DAC or New Streamer? It’s not the topic of this thread but I thought it may be useful to relay that I have found my Innuos gear to be so, so sensitive to vibration control. I have a ZENith Mk 3, a PhoenixUSB, and a PhoenixNET. While my 3 Innuos boxes have elaborate da... | |
| Streamer-DAC vs Seperates That’s one approach! Again not buying anything now. Just curious if anyone has in depth comparative experience of separates vs combo box digital solutions of equal value on a revealing system, considering the trend to combo boxes. It’s more a gen... | |
| Streamer-DAC vs Seperates @testrun that is a very common sense approach. I tend to go big on cables so definitely a factor. But as I said, that is an example of first deciding what approach makes sense to you and committing to that, vs actually testing the sonic differen... | |
| Streamer-DAC vs Seperates Yes trend definitely seems to be streamer-DAC combos with “tweak” boxes like reclockers, upscalers etc. But I’m wondering if what @lalitk said is true - that separate DAC and dedicated streamer always wins. If I was upgrading now I’d be carefull... | |
| Streamer-DAC vs Seperates Thanks for the perspectives! @lalitk , I’m not actually considering upgrading my digital chain at this point. As I said I’m very happy with my sound, and as of now I don’t feel the need to upgrade. I started this thread only because I am intereste... | |
| Streamer-DAC vs Seperates I doubt that very much! The chances that the options would be the same are incredibly low… so…. Better or worse? Or maybe no one has any real world experience directly comparing. Was hoping someone had done this comparison and had some takeawa... |
