| tube tuner or solid stat tuner I am a big fan of tubes but I use a Fanfare FT 1a and a Magnum Dynalab MD 102. Both great tuners. The Fanfare is an amazing tuner for when it was built. I think around 94. You can find them cheap and they sound great and have great reception.... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? Quicksilver is one of the best examples of performance to price ratio out there. If you don't care that it is very plain and without bling you will be rewarded with great sound. I had a pair of Mid Mono for about 9 years and for what they cost... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? You would need to spend the same on preamp and associated source components plus some truly world class speakers to even fully realize it's potential. Not to mention the room it's in. That will dictate the overall sound quality. You can pu... | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 I clicked on the support icon at night and when I woke up there was a response. So far I feel this was one of the most worthwhile upgrades on a long time. I keep meaning to install the 4 TB SSD but I can’t stop listening to it. | |
| Aurender N200 I just wanted to say how responsive Aurender is with support. Super fast and helpful. This was a great purchase. They are working on an update that should be out soon that will address Android disconnects Honestly the Vault wasn’t exactl... | |
| First Streamer... Node or Vault is a great way to start. | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 I was very surprised how good the N200 sounds with .wav and .Flac files pulled from a HDD or my Vault. Really good. | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? I’m sure all the streamer mentioned are excellent. The U2 mini has the best selection of output types no doubt but I think I’ll be fine with either USB or SPDIF output on the Aurender I don’t see buying anything like an Esoteric or dcs where t... | |
| To ROON or not to ROON ? I thought about it when choosing a streamer but really don't want another subscription. In the end I picked an Aurender N200. It checked all the boxes for me and I think after using it it was definitely the right choice coming from a Vault, w... | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? The preamp is often overlooked as to how important it is. I had a Zesto Leto and that was such a great preamp. I mean it committed no sins. Pure and true to the source. I am having a preamp built and I know it will have it’s own sound signatu... | |
| Repair Outfit for Older DACs? Anything change recently? Player or transport connected to it.? | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 You know you want it…. Surrender to the N20 | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 Yeah but I think everyone knows …. Surrender to the N20….. | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 I tried both and preferred the SPDIF with my current DAC | |
| surrender n200 vs n20 Many people tried talking me out of a high end streamer , saying a Raspberry Pi or PC or Mac sounds better than something like the Aurender. No way ! They have never experienced a really streamer to be making that statement |
