| Importance of streamer in audio chain Buy a streamer with great support. These are computers..... | |
| If you had to choose... I have heard great things about the Revival... there is a thread on them over at Steve Hoffman forum | |
| RCA to XLR (Anthem MRX to dan d'agostino progression) I also recommend a transformer type converter. I had a preamp that had a full suite of transformer coupled inputs and outputs. I could plug in my balanced tuner and DAC and it would output RCA , input RCA it could output XLR , or native in nati... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable I have a Origin Live Silver iv on my Sota Escape and it's really nice. I would imagine their top offerings are high quality as you go up the line. | |
| Eversolo A6/A8 I was pretty vocal about Zidoos lack of support on their forum , even mentioning that I asked them for warranty support 5 days before it expired and no further contact . A solid company would have PM'd me or replied but no one from Zidoo reached... | |
| Eversolo A6/A8 Imagine if he had a DAC that only had a a USB input or even worse, a huge library of DSD material on it that can only be played via USB ? That's why it's unacceptable | |
| Eversolo A6/A8 This product could be so good if they were a more mature company but digital sources need stable, vetted firmware to work well. They are just not at that level. So frustrating to lose an audio output format like USB that is now ubiquitous... | |

| Tidal removing all MQA Agree with Brian about streaming in native format. I have Tidal and Qobuz. Tidal mostly for live content and they have some artists that only have a few tracks available on Qobuz. I think the next time I sit down in front of my main syst... | |
| 10dB resonant peak at 40Hz My room is about the same dimensions and my last sub. , a REL was used with a Velodyne SMS 1 . It pulled down that nasty peak. The sub that replaced it has built in DSP and it also does a good job of getting rid of the boom Before you do anyt... | |
| Aurender A200 vs N200 While we are on the subject of streamers, I will say support, firmware, user interface are all of equal and high importance. A "great" streamer with terrible support and mediocre user interface is not really that great That’s why I like Aurender... | |
| Aurender A200 vs N200 I have an Aurender N200. It's been great. Using it with the the Lab 12 DAC 1 Reference and it sounds great. I also think that's a good plan to focus on streamer and using the McIntosh DAC for now. | |
| Best and Worst customer service? Aamir at Summit HiFi is one of the best in the biz. His follow up and genuine concern for your satisfaction is rare these days. | |
| Martin Logan 13A's with Rel subs? A match? It's voice coil is bigger than most woofers. 2 X 10,000 watt amps included |
