Sub Confusion
I'm currently using two Martin Logan Dynamo 700s which are 10 inch sealed subs.  The system sounds very good.  I have an opportunity to get a sweet deal on a B stock REL S-812 (40% discount) 12" driver plus passive radiator.   I have always wanted... 
Hegel H390, Lyngdorf TDAI 3400, or Naim Nova for my B&W 802D2 speakers?
I have the Lyngdorf 3400 with Focal Sopra 1 and it sounds very good. However I demoed the amp with Bowers 804 and the Lyngdorf didn’t seem to be up to the test of getting full performance from the 804. Having listened to the 804 with a small McInt... 
Re-terminate speaker cables
I finally did get the RMA number from Audio Quest this afternoon but I’ve been thinking about DIY since many say it’s very easy.   Original wires are two at amp and split to four at speakers. To get the correct polarity I assume the two bass wires... 
Re-terminate speaker cables
Joey,I got to the point you have of getting a quote and being provided the form to complete. However since  completing and submitting the  RMA request form last week I have heard nothing.  I tried resubmitting the form just in case the email was o... 
Re-terminate speaker cables
Would I be combining the two ends that says treble together and the two that’s labeled bass together?  This is solid wire and it seems pretty thick.  Would I be able to find DIY connectors to join these?  I guess it won’t look as slick as the orig... 
Speaker Upgrade for Lyngdorf 3400
Was originally interested in the SF.  They are beautiful speakers. The Sonus Faber played well with the Lyngdorf. However since I heard the Focals the Sonus Faber seemed to be much more laid back and lack the detail I’m looking for.   Since I star... 
Who is using The Lyngdorf 2710 or 3400, and Room Perfect with speakers against the wall ?
I've had my speakers flat against the wall almost since I purchased the Lyngdorf.  I found this the only way I could get the bass perfect.  Center image is good but the sound stage is quite shallow.  I'm growing weary of this and looking for a way... 
Dynaudio Contour 30 vs. Focal Kanta No. 2 speaker
That’s terrible. I just ordered a pair. They are on long back order due to COVID.  Were you able to get any rectification of the finish issues?   
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
I curious about Roon and thinking about giving it a try.  They say computer should have solid state drive and mine has spinning disk.  However if the computer is on 24/7 does it matter if it has a spinning drive?  Also I'm using the computer to ac... 
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
With Roon and my Roon ready amp with built in Streamer and playing Tidal How do the audio files get to the amp. If I’m still passing the audio files through the PC via USB what’s the advantage of “Roon ready” amp and Roon itself?  I don’t really n... 
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
My Lyngdorf amp has built in streamer but does not handle Tidal or any streaming service with MQA quality. The amp is listed as “Roon ready” and Roon shows up as one of the inputs.  If I had Roon does this mean I can stream directly to the amp wit... 
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
I’m unaware of the Lyngdorf Directly supporting any other service the offers MQA files. It has Roon but that’s another investment on top of a streaming service and adds complexity. Too bad as I’m sure streaming directly through the amp is a better... 
Node 2i interface/app, a beginner's question
The Node2i is super easy to set up, sounds fantastic. The app works very well on my iPhone though I’m still getting used to the layout.  The headphone amp inside is very good which might be an added bonus for you son. Quality product. No brainer i... 
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
Thanks everyone for all the good input. Tonight I discovered Tidal desktop app has a feature called Exclusive mode.  It says “with exclusive mode Tidal has exclusive use of the audio device.”  “This setting only has effect on Master and Hi-Fi mode... 
Any advantage to Bluesound Node 2i Versus Streaming from PC
jjss49i read through quite a few posts and they are all over the place. Certainly no overwhelming majority in one camp or the other.  In my case it is a higher end PC ((not that this matters).  Really hard to discern a real difference in sound qua...
