| Weiss DAC 204 hiccups I have a TP link and it works great. Can’t get ether to every room. | |
| Weiss DAC 204 hiccups Most streamers buffer the incoming stream really well. In fact on many you can unplug the Ethernet conn and they’ll still play for 20 30 seconds maybe longer I also think it’s the Wi-Fi. You’re losing connection and it reconnects just outsid... | |
| Should I upgrade from REL/510 subwoofer to REL/812 subwoofer? My Dad picked up a nice used 510 from a dealer for $1400. I’d try to find a second sub. | |
| 🤯 Legacy Audio Calibre XD humming + no low ends & boxy sounding Did you hear them before you bought them? | |
| Battle of the affordables That was quite a price spread , I'll suggest something in the middle price wise. Studio Electric M4 $3290. Phenomenal speaker for the money | |
| Looking for a more up-to-date streamer I love my Aurender N200. Built like a tank, gets better with each update, now has Qobuz Connect. Great machine. | |
| Streaming recommendations New problems were drop out son Qubuz. Really frustrating to have to put that thing in my systems to troubleshoot. | |
| Streaming recommendations My Dad has an A6 Mastee. Was working perfect and about a year into it they botched the FW and it no longer recognizes his DAC. Its a know issue with several other DACs. It's been over a year and no resolve. When I asked for an RMA 5 da... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? When I chose my most recent speaker I watched a you tube video by the designer. He described the country origin of the components. Nice tweeter made to their spec , nice woofer made for them by Morel , but the nicest looking part inside was the c... | |
| Tube preamplifier lifespan I have a Sonic Frontiers preamp built in '94 that still sounds great. Many small signal tubes can last 10,000 hours , that's a lot of listening time. I've had it about 5 years and it still works flawlessly. | |
| the gateway product that turned you into an audiophile I was 15, I saved my paper route money and bought a nice used Sansui AU9900 integrated amp. That and some hand me down Speakers got me started | |
| Streaming recommendations I have a Bluesound Vault 2i and it's been great . It's probably at least 6 years old now. I use it everyday. Several times a day. When that dies I'll probably buy the Icon. I did have a demo of the WiIM Ultra and I thought it sounded pre... | |
| Can 6AJ8's be safely substituted for 6KA8's? A lot of good equipment has been hurt by the wrong tube. I always use exact spec when possible. Brent Jessee' website is a valuable resource also. Lots of info there. When i think about it that's where I'd start . I go there occasionally... | |
| Electronic cross-over on pre-amp out, to split signal to subwoofer and bookshelf speakers "If you were just looking to add more deep bass to you system, then go with something like what REL offers that lets your existing loudspeaker run full range." I agree , I run my Studio Electric M4 full range with my REL's crossover set low and i... | |
| Can 6AJ8's be safely substituted for 6KA8's? The best resource for tube substitution in my opinion is an owner's manual for the later built Hickok testers. It helps confirm pin out, heater voltage and current. Some have tube substitution charts for the more common tubes also. |
