| Bluesound Node versions SQ @invalid , I’m sorry to hear about your issues with your bluesound node 2, I’ve not had any issues. I took a look at the stock power board that came out of my N132 for the LPS upgrade and see exactly what you mentioned. | |
| Qutest LPS upgrade @signaforce , which filter and voltage output settings are you using with your Qutest? About a month or so ago I added a Qutest to my setup coming from a Bluesound Node N130 and I’m still listening and collecting thoughts before I provide an upda... | |
| Bluesound Node versions SQ @ironrick6 , I'm replying to your message here since Audiogon wants me to verify my phone number (ok...) and a payment method (why?) to respond to your message. To answer your question, I'm currently using an old 75 ohm Audioquest video cable wit... | |
| Bluesound Node versions SQ @invalid , I have never had a red light of death on any of my Bluesound products. I have always kept my units on the top shelf with plenty of space around them so heat soak could be a problem with the design but my setup doesn't create that oppor... | |
| Bluesound Node versions SQ @ironrick6 , I started with the Node 2 (not the i version) then moved to a Node 2 (N130) with a linear power supply. The improvement is noticeable and I would encourage you to make this move as others have. It is entirely possible that you'll be... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II 1.4 Firmware @feckmo I'd recommend you reach out to Vinshine Audio and ask about the FW drivers. I believe Alvin stated that they would continue to support owners that purchased their Denafrips products through them. | |
| Bluesound After a bit of back and forth with Bluesound support, I've got an answer for everyone. Right now the updates to the Node N130 FW are in preparation to support the N132 units which is why it recognizes the DSF files on my HDD. And according to Su... | |
| Bluesound I just updated my N130 and it went without a problem. So far the only difference I can see is that the DSF files on my drive are now recognized (including album art) but there is no sound when I play the file. I’ve not seen anything from Bluesoun... | |
| HoloAudio Cyan 2 DAC @patrickcarey , thank you for the direction to the New Record Day review on YouTube. To those that might be following this thread, there are quite a few reviews on this DAC. I appreciate your feedback on the DAC. From your prior DACs, this soun... | |
| HoloAudio Cyan 2 DAC @patrickcarey , yes I would like to get your feedback on the unit. What are your thoughts on it compared to other DACs? | |
| Upgrade from BluNode 2i with a new DAC or Integrated Streamer DAC? From my watching of the Denafrips DAC world, the Venus doesn't pop up on the used market very often and the used prices reflect that. The Ares and Pontus show up more often with the Pontus II models (and even some of the 12th) beginning to come d... | |
| Has anyone abandoned stereo for atmos for music? I have a dedicated 2 channel and a dedicated 5.1.4 setup and purchased my first SACD surround when DSOTM came out to sell multichannel surround mixes. As should be expected, the experience is entirely based on the source material and the setup. ... | |
| Art Blakely & The Jazz Messengers Caravan (2024 Remaster) - anyone heard it? Thanks, the asking price on HDTracks is pretty small compared to what some recordings go for, but I really wanted to understand what I would be getting, if the remaster was good or bad. | |
| Advantages with an outboard power supply The external LHY LPS for the Bluesound N130 makes a difference to my ears. | |
| Bluesound "upgrade" 4.0 No issues using v4.0 from day one on either the N130 or the iPhone. |
