Whats playing on your system today? @slaw I use my little Raspberry Pi music server to stream to my main system. I built a killer little streamer/server for under $200 and it could be done for about $100 if you forego a fancy power supply and case. Heck, if you have a USB DAC, you c... | |
Whats playing on your system today? I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record (well, actually like a continuous audio stream), but this morning I'm listening to Radio Paradise's internet radio stream (Again!). I love the eclectic mix. They just played Two Cello's version of ... | |
Tune of the Day @folkfreak You win, but then, you are a folk freak.....just saying'..I think a lot of people are surprised when they find out some great, well known rock songs are actually covers. Lots of examples, of which this is a good one. And, of course, Naz... | |
Tune of the Day Nutty,"This Flight Tonight", in its original album version, as well as this acoustic version, is probably my favorite Nazareth song. But, it's a cover. Do you know who wrote it and originally recorded it? | |
Tune of the Day Nutty,Glad you are enjoying Frontier Folk Nebraska. It ain't folk, and they're not from Nebraska. :~)You guys should go check them out when they are back at Southgate House Revival. Really small venue, up close and personal. Bring earplugs!For ano... | |
Whats playing on your system today? Rush - Xanaduhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5w3s2T0VBugOne of my favorites from my teen years. A classic, epic, prog rock journey........ | |
Best $500 System? gammajo,I would caution you that most DVD players do not have remote controllable variable volume. If you use a DVD player, or cd player, that do not have remote controllable variable volume, you will have to set the volume using the gain control ... | |
Best $500 System? $500 is a pretty low budget for a system. If I needed a system at that budget, and didn't need deep bass, I would probably buy a pair of new JBL LSR305 powered monitors and I'd spend the remainder on the best used Oppo DVD player I could find with... | |
NO Side Speakers in an atmos system? Does the pre/pro have automatic setup? If so, try both connections (rear and side) and see which sounds better. Just remember to run the setup routine after you make the wiring changes. I'm guessing you would want to connect the back L&R speak... | |
Integrated Amps with Phono for $3000 or less (or separate phono and Integrated) I love my recently acquired Rega Elicit-R. It is probably the best all around integrated amp I've ever owned and it replaced separates I was using previously. | |
Good Monitors with NAD C356 (for now) Will the monitors be on stands, away from the wall, or will they be on a shelf/furniture close to the wall behind them? Will make a difference as some bookshelf/monitor speakers are better suited to near wall placement. | |
My Onkyo NR-905 Receiver is making my speakers chirping. I agree with sfall. You need to determine if you are having the problem with both digital sources and analog. If you tune to FM radio, do you still get the chirp? How about a CD player using the analog L&R RCA inputs? Do you hear the chirp on ... | |
Cables for rear surrounds gdnrbob,I've had the opposite experience. I've never experienced an issue with BFA connectors. I've used 5-6 different ones, all the low mass type without fancy screw-on collars,etc. I've never had one bend or break and I've never had one fall out... | |
need your help for sony ubp-x800 kennesawjet,All of the output you described from the Sony are digital and your CJ pv-12 only has analog inputs. A simple converter plug does not exist which converts digital to analog. You would need to buy a DAC which will accept HDMI (not sure w... | |
Budget Upgrade for 2.1 bookshelf system I ordered the PeachTree Audio Decco65 from Upscale Audio in California. It shipped and arrived in Cincinnati 4 days later. That is excellent service! I've got it burning-in in my big rig right now. Out of the box it sounded pretty flat, but with a... |
