| Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP @david_ten Thanks for the advice. My MKII has a 2TB SSD, so I ordered a unit without music storage. I'll keep you posted. | |
| Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP @david_ten. I’ll take look. Thanks. | |
| Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP I’m trying to decide between selling my MKII and buying a MKIII, or keeping the MKII and buying a NUC to host Roon Core. I’m looking at this NUC that I found on Amazon:Intel NUC NUC7i7BNH Mini PC/HTPC, Intel Dual-Core i7-7567U Upto 4.0GHz, 16GB D... | |
| Innuous Zenith Mk III Arrives Tomorrow @snackeyp. I’ve had a MKII for about 6 months and just started using Roon. The MKII has dropouts when I enable DSP. Are you successfully using DSP with the MKIII? | |
| What do you mean you “heard” the turntable @chakster Do you think the old Technics tonearm + old wiring and new Technics SL-1200G tonearm + new wiring are equal ? The fit and finish of the 1200G is far superior to the 1600 and older 1200. The 1200G is also much heavier and solidly built.Un... | |
| What do you mean you “heard” the turntable I have a new Technics SL-1200G and vintage SL-MK1600 MK2. With all things being equal except the tables, trust me, I can mostly certainly hear the difference. | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? NAD doesn’t get a lot of love on agon, but you might want to look at the NAD M22 v2. Paired with the NAD M12 pre/DAC with BluOS module, they drive my Tannoy 8 dcti speakers quite well. | |
| Full range tower speakers with bass under $10k Tannoy 10dcti if you can find a used pair. | |
| Turntables I used a Technics SL-1600 MKII for 35 years until I purchased a Technics SL-1200G. Now the 1600 is part of a second system. The 1200G build quality is excellent, and SQ is everything I could want.Several folks have recommended the Technics SL-... | |
| Music streamer with no DAC and no storage? +1 Innuos Zenith MKII or MKIII | |
| Mr. Obvious (?) - digital source (burn) @roberjeman Hard drives crash and die! This is a true statement; however, it's easy to protect yourself. I've ripped my CD collection to a Zenith MKII; it also holds any music I purchase and download (FLAC and DSD files). It has a 2TB SSD. ... | |
| Does a ripped cd onto a digital format sound better than the cd played on the cdp Playing CDs ripped to FLAC through my Zenith MKII into a Mytek Liberty DAC into a NAD M12 sounds better to my ears than my McIntosh MCD7008 directly to the M12.Before I purchased the Liberty, I did compare the MCD7008 and Zenith into the M12. The... | |
| Technics SL-1200G Anti-Skating Instructions for what? Feickert's instructions for using the protractor.Thanks for the Hi-Fi Test LP link. I'm going to guy the LP. | |
| mc cartridge loading I have an Ortofon Quintet Black on a Technics 1200G connected to a NAD M12 pre-amp. This is my first MC cartridge. I get a very pleasing and musical sound with that combination. I'm going to eventually buy a tube pre-amp. I found a great deal ... | |
| Sound Quality of red book CDs vs.streaming @ astewart8944334 BTW I believe @audioengr Steve N. has noted elsewhere that WAV files sound better than FLAC files. I'll have to re-rip a couple of my CDs to WAV and give it listen. I hope I can't hear a difference because I dread the though... |
