| Tidal Error Message I stream Tidal to three zones simultaneously using my iPhone, iPad, a couple of laptops, and my desktop computer with no issues. Zone 1 is Airplay, zone 2 is RAAT, and zone 3 is Chromecast Audio. Like p05129, I do not have a family plan. I'm us... | |
| How do you sort your LPs? Alphabetical by artist last name using wooden dividers, split into two groups - jazz and everything else | |
| Sales or clearances happening now A little over a week ago, I pulled the trigger on a DirectStream DAC Sr. I’ve always wanted on, so I figured why not.I’m semi-retired planning for full retirement at the end of June. Good Lord willing, I’ll make it to June and for a many more yea... | |
| Thoughts on choosing an amplifier Give the NAD M22v2 a look. It's 300 wpc at 8 ohms. I use mine with a Herron tube pre-amp and Tannoy DC8Ti speakers, sounds good to my ears. You can find a used NAD in the $2,500 range. | |
| Question about Tone Controls + Equalizers In my 80’s rec room systems I have a McInosh 31V pre amp and SoundCraftsman SP-4001 EQ/pre amp. I use them both on occasion with my R2R and turntable.I tried a Loki with my listening room system but found I didn’t really need it or like for that ... | |
| Soundstage Confusion @mapman I did use the same recordings. Some vocals and some jazz, and some audiophile test tracks. I didn’t think of a monophonic recording. Good advice. I’ll remember that next time. | |
| Soundstage Confusion Lance,I auditioned the microZOTL preamp with the ZOTL40 power amp and it sounded good. I listened to it at LTA's office and at home. It is a fine piece of equipment. My only knock is their Apple remote control lacks too much functionality.... | |
| PS Audio DirectStream DAC measurements by ASR I ignored their help because I didn't ask for it, nor do I believe I need it. I don't understand how anyone can buy a high-end (expensive being relative) stereo component without having read reviews from a variety of sources to narrow the field, ... | |
| PS Audio DirectStream DAC measurements by ASR @ djones51. You are entitled to your perspective, and you are completely wrong about why I posted on ASR. I knew nothing about ASR before my post, but clearly should have, nor about this thread until after it. I have never nor would I ever i... | |
| PS Audio DirectStream DAC measurements by ASR @ arancano + 1. I made the mistake of posting this on the ASR site a couple of days ago. Silly me. I just joined this forum today. I read with interest many of the comments in this thread regarding the DirectStream DAC's not so glowing spec... | |
| Soundstage Confusion Sometimes panic sets in. One has to laugh at oneself on occasion.Ditto! | |
| Soundstage Confusion @heaudio123. When I realized what I had done, all I could do was laugh and shake my head. And although I felt a bit foolish doing it, admitting my mistake was easy. At my age, I've made so many of them, what's one more :-)!@reubent It's good to... | |
| Soundstage Confusion I hear you!! 😂 | |
| Soundstage Confusion After overlooking the real problem for several days, I walked away from it. Today, I figured out my problem. I'm embarrassed to say, it was me. While moving my NAD out of the old rack and placing it on the floor, I somehow moved the Bridge swit... | |
| Soundstage Confusion Guys, I appreciate the help. I'm a techie by trade and I recognize that when troubleshooting, you only change one thing at a time. Silly me, I didn't expect that adding a rack would cause this kind of issue when two amps play fine in the same po... |
