Streamer opinion.. Pease comment on validity. Since my name was mentioned I will say that I did NOT test the servers blindly. I did some quick A/B comparisons on some familiar tracks. But in the end it was long term listening for pleasure that best bore out the differences. Same as it should ... | |
Tekton vs. Salk Sound? FOCALS ARE SHRILLY CRAP COMPARED TO SALK ! Spoken (shouted) by someone I'm sure has never heard the new Focals.You should get out more and post less........ | |
Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System All of these posts are making my point. I never said the OP's system couldn't sound good with movies and music. I'm sure it does. All I said is that when you combine the two, there are compromises to be made. Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusio... | |
Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System HT experts will tell you that you need to have the left/right speakers set up so that the image is continuous when panned across the stage - to the center speaker - and to the other speaker. Which means they will be flanking the screen somewhat ti... | |
Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System Well there's this.Let's not even consider the electronics, which is also a factor.But if you position your speakers so that they are optimized for two channel listening, they will NOT be optimized for HT. Now as long as you know that one or the ot... | |

Streamer opinion.. Pease comment on validity. Maybe a couple of real world a/b’s betweenStreamers hooked to the same DAC? Yeah I just did this. Compared a Node 2i to a Lumin U1 mini. As good as the node is, the Lumin is better. More transparent and natural to my ears. I know it's 4 times a... | |
Basic Tidal streamer to USB DAC I don't get streamers. I re-clock the usb data coming out of the pc. I use Tidal's player into an NOS dac, done. Two reasons.1) They sound better2) It gets a computer out of the signal chain. | |
Signal break up on 7 month old Bluesound Node 2i Your best investment would be to separate home theater from 2 channel. Far better than worrying about DACs, Tidal, etc.......Oz | |
Moving up from a Node 2i Just to be clear. If the improvement I heard out of the box was all there was,I wouldn't have spent the $$ either. That said, after some hours on the Lumin the improvement was great enough to justify the expense. If I only had 500.00 to spend on a... | |
Ive recieved an offer for my set of Aerial 7T speakers of $700.00. Should I accept? I had a pair of Aerial 7Bs for about a week. Only long enough to turn them around and out the door. I wouldn’t give you 700.00 for a pair. But good luck with your sale.Oz | |
Moving up from a Node 2i Update.After allowing the Lumin U1 mini to burn in for around 100 hours the gap widened between it and the Node 2i. I believe the Lumin is more transparent and tonally more natural than the Node. I am keeping the U1 mini and selling the Node. It's... | |
Moving up from a Node 2i hilde45I think the Node 2i does a wonderful job at it’s price point. I will put mine back in the system soon to compare to my Lumin.Oz |
