| Qobuz Issues? From what I can make out over on Reddit, N.America seems to be fine; it's the UK and Western Europe that's gone down. Oh well, Radio Paradise, here we come 🥳 could be worse | |
| Qobuz Issues? @jbuhl thanks for the heads-up re: reddit; at least it's nothing wrong my end👍 | |
| Qobuz Issues? Yep, lost connection via Innuos Sense, and can't reconnect/log-in 🤔😩 | |
| Upgrade from Innuos Zen Mini Mkiii to Innuos Pulse @cosmic_charlie Thank you; it really does help. If the jump from the Zen to Pulse was that good, I can't imagine the jump from Zen mini to be any less an improvement. My system is streaming only also, so yep I agree, getting the front end/streame... | |
| Puritan PSM156 @twinski66 Congratulations 👍 Your findings with the 156 mirror mine. My system is deathly silent with the 156, but it doesn't subdued dynamics at all. I later added the Ground City, but if I'm honest, I can't say there was further improvement. I ... | |
| InnuOS Sense 2.6.0. @curiousjim I did just that; from N130 with PD Creative kit and LPS, to Zen Mini mkiii w/Innuos LPS. Sold the Node and picked up the Zen pre-loved It wasn't a minor improvement to SQ. To my mind, this jump was/is a major one; the law of diminis... | |
| InnuOS Sense 2.6.0. @antigrunge2 I updated this afternoon (Zeni Mini mkiii w/Innuos LPS), and I must admit, it is a noticeable change in SQ. Listening to Jana Horn, and earlier Naima Joris. I am extremely familiar with these two artists, but the 2 albums I’ve liste... | |
| Why do we demand so much from our systems? Personally, the Hifi pursuit, after picking up the Hifi hobby again after some 25 yes out of the loop, has turned to one of exploration to find out what sound qualities and characteristics I now like. Back in the early 90s, after hearing an frien... | |
| Upgrade from Innuos Zen Mini Mkiii to Innuos Pulse Hi guys, I posted this back in August originally; now the Innuos Pulse line-up has had more time out in the wild, I'm looking to anyone who has made the move from Zen mini mkiii W/Innuos LPS, to the Pulse? Was the upgrade worth it, in terms of S... | |
| DH Labs Just another shout out for DH Labs. I recently purchased the Air Matrix Cryo RCA ICs, and Reunion Ethernet cable. The Cryo’s replaced my Lavri Grand silver ICs, which great cables, I’ve had them for around 2 years I think, but with a new DAC and ... | |
| Cen. Grand DSDAC 1.0 (vs Pontus II) @doni I can't help you there I'm afraid; never heard the PS Audio. There is a good, sober review of the Cen Grand Super Clock which I have, by The British Audiophile. He mentions a hum, but mine is deathly quiet however, all my electronics are fe... | |
| Network/Ethernet Improvements Suggestions Thanks for all the advice guys, much appreciated 👍 Streamer it is, I'm convinced after removing the media converters | |
| Network/Ethernet Improvements Suggestions @audphile1 @marco1 I've tried cutting out the media converters and going ethernet straight into the regular switch, which feeds the NA ENO; got to admit, I find music pops more/a better 3D presentation/greater depth - I feel like the media conve... | |
| Network/Ethernet Improvements Suggestions @creativepart Thanks for this. I've also read somewhere that using an optic "firebreak" in the chain can bring it's own issues, can't remember what that was now. DAC is a Cen Grand DSDAC 1.0 Super Clock -> Marantz Model 30 -> ATC SCM40's... | |
