| Thorens TD 160 "pop" revisited Thanks for following up! I am sure future 160 owners will find this useful… | |
| Surprised by streamer differences It would be interesting to add a Linn, like the Akurate DSM, to that audition list… | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help This thread is the poster child child for applying one’s own filter when digesting audio forum comments, especially empassioned ones. Some posts will ridicule other’s strong preferences and then follow up with absolutist statements of their own... | |
| Lumin X1 dont see many virtual audiogon systems with this? Has anyone compared the X1 to the upper Linn DSM units like the Akurate or Klimax? | |
| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... Pool size and sample variation play a role here. If you had happened upon Amir’s site in the early days after he had measured just two amps (or DACs) the different measurements would be very noticeable when presented on a graph graphic. After eig... | |
| To Roon or not to Roon? I use Linn Akurate level kit as my streamer/DAC. I tried Roon, running the Core on a MacBook Pro. The Roon app is fun with a cool magazine like browser. The radio function where you get an auto feed of songs similar to the last album played is nic... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Just to play devil’s advocate here: The Paganini is an older discontinued product. I have no idea what the used resale value is like? But it would be interesting to figure out the dollar value and sound quality against a new DCS Bartok for exampl... | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) I think for the OP the intersection of synergy with current DAC, simplicity, flexibility and future upgrade paths lies with the upper tier options from Innuos. Having the new Innuos streaming software, easy CD ripping, album management, server... | |
| Help.... I'm scared to 'upgrade'! The oft used “all about the music” serves music lovers and gear heads alike. Using the phrase to support individual thresholds for spending more or spending less has little utility on audio forums. Some might love the sound on a carefully curated... | |
| Help.... I'm scared to 'upgrade'! I am curious about one thing here: I own both the Aria and the JC3+ and don’t hear any noise issues with either? | |
| External phono stage for Luxman 509x I went from the Rega Aria to the Parasound JC3+ and am totally happy… | |
| Wireless vs. Ethernet for Streaming I have a remote home on a small island. I get internet via radio receivers that ping signals between 50 user members from a very small local internet company. I stream most content just fine but hi res albums via Qobuz will hiccup. | |
| To Stream or Not to Stream What kind of music do you listen to? Almost all popular stuff is available for streaming. But some users who enjoy a deep collection of classical music often complain about searching for stuff via streaming. Burning classic CDs also can cause cata... | |
| Opinions On DACs Around 1,000$ This is one of those topics where you will get a ton of “buy what I bought” responses. Not always super helpful. I would back up and start with your room: create an accurate diagram of your listening space with accurate dimensions, windows, doors... | |
| Linn Akurate Exakt DSM Digital out for phono stage? I have two seperate Linn Akurate systems. But I can’t answer your question. Two suggestions: 1) Definitive Audio in Seattle is a major Linn dealer with several Linn experts on staff. 2) The best forum for Linn knowledge is in the UK. Ther... |
